A used book store buys a hardback book for $1.50 and then sells it for $5. Over time, the store sells the same number of books it buys. The store manager can use the equation P(x)=5x−1.5x to determine the store's profit, P(x), where x is the number of books that the store sells. Which statement about the book store is true based on the profit equation?
Cost Price of book, C.P.=$1.50
Selling Price of book, S.P.=$5
PROFIT=S.P. -C.P.
So, Profit=$5-$1.50=$3.50
So, Profit=$3.50 on each book
Or, we are given P(x)= 5x-1.50x
Or, P(x)=3.50x
For each book, we must divide the profit P(x) by x, that is, number of books
So, Profit for each book sold is $3.50
Answer:Option C
Remember that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

is the width of the rectangle
is the length of the rectangle
Thus, in this case, you can see that we are adding two of the same monomials and two of another monomial. One monomial is
and another monomial is
. In this case, these monomials would fulfill the perimeter equation of a rectangle.
Applying this perimeter structure, we can find that this expression represents a perimeter equation of a rectangle with sides x + 15 and x + 5.
Answer:
true
Step-by-step explanation:
In mathematics, an inverse function (or anti-function) is a function that "reverses" another function: if the function f applied to an input x gives a result of y, then applying its inverse function g to y gives the result x, and vice versa, i.e., f(x) = y if and only if g(y) = x.
Well, if 'y' has zeros at x=6 and x=-8,
then 'y' must be the product
y = (x - 6) (x + 8)
Perform the multiplication to get the quadratic function:
y = x² + 2x - 48
