Answer:

The current population (in 2005) is 4000 because it is the constant. The slope tells us how many people are added to the population, so 70 per year. For ex. 2008 (2008- 2005 = 3=> 3 x 70 = 210 => 210 + 4000 = 4210).

The area of polygon MNOPQR = Area of a rectangle that is 9 square units + Area of a rectangle that is ___ square units. (Input w
vekshin1
You have the polygon MNOPQR which can be expressed as two rectangles pasted one next to each other.

To see the two rectangles in the picture, you can draw a line parallel to segment MR througn point N.

From the original picture you can state the dimensions of both rectangles.

Call S, the point where the line that you drew intercepts the segment RQ.

Then one rectangle is MNSR and the other rectangle is OPQS.

The measures of the sides of the rectangle MNSR are:

- the length of MN = length of SR = base

- the length of MR = the length of NS.= height

So its area is base * height, which you can all A1.

The measured of the rectangle OPQS are:

- segment OP = segment SQ = segment QR - segment SR = base

- segment PQ = segment OS = height

So its area is base * height, which you can call A2.

Then the area of the polygon MNOPQRS is A1 + A2. One of them is 9 u^2 and the other is what the answer is asking for, and that you have calculated above.

With this procedure you can tell the value needed.

A certain car rental location charges a daily fee as well as a mileage charge. On one trip a businessman rented a car for the da

Answer:

x\approx 267\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

f(x)=mx+b

For the problem at hand, we must pick the adequate variables according to the data provided.

The question states the charge for renting a car is a function of the mileage. It also provides two points from which we can build our model. Let's set the following variables:

c = the charge for renting a car in dollars

x = the distance driven by the businessman in miles

Representing the ordered pair as (x,c), we have the points: (150,79) and (65,63.70). Our model will be expressed as:

c = mx+b

We must find the values of m and b with the data provided. Substituting the first point:

79 = 150m+b

Substituting the second point:

63.70 = 65m+b

Both equations form the following system:

\left\{\begin{matrix}150m+b=79\\ 65m+b=63.70 \end{matrix}\right.

Subtracting both equations:

150m-65m=79-63.70

Note the variable b was canceled out in the operation, leaving only the variable m to solve. Joining like terms:

85m=15.3

Solving:

m=15.3/85=0.18

From the first equation

79 = 150m+b

Solving for b:

b=79-150m=79-150(0.18) = 52.

The model for the problem is:

c=0.18x+52

Now we need to calculate how many miles (x) could be driven for c=$100. From the equation above, substitute c=100

100=0.18x+52

Solve for x:

0.18x+52=100

0.18x=100-52=48

x=48/0.18=266.67

Rounding to the closest integer:

\boxed{x\approx 267\ miles}

Which is a y-intercept of the continuous function in the table? (0, –6) (–2, 0) (–6, 0) (0, –2)
photoshop1234 [79]

Y- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the y- axis.

X- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the x- axis.

This means the coordinate of the point of intersection will always have the x point as 0. So any point of the form ( 0, y) is the y- intercept. Any point of the form (x,0) is the x- intercept.

Given point are :

(0,-6) : y intercept

(-2,0) : x intercept

(-6,0): x- intercept

(0,-2): y- intercept

A function f(x)=3x+12.

_______________


•  Function:   f(x) = 3x + 12.


A.  Finding the inverse of f.

The composition of f with its inverse results in the identity function:

(f o g)(x) = x

f[ g(x) ] = x

3 · g(x) + 12 = x

3 · g(x) = x – 12

              x – 12
g(x)  =  ⸺⸺
                 3

               x 
g(x)  =  ⸺  –  4    <———    this is the inverse of f.
               3

________


B.  Verifying that the composition of f and g gives us the identity function:

•  \mathsf{(f\circ g)(x)}

\mathsf{=f\big[g(x)\big]}\\\\\\ \mathsf{=3\cdot \left(\dfrac{x}{3}-4\right)+12}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=\diagup\hspace{-7}3\cdot \dfrac{x}{\diagup\hspace{-7}3}-3\cdot 4+12}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=x-12+12}\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=x\qquad\quad\checkmark}


and also

•  \mathsf{(g\circ f)(x)}

\mathsf{=g\big[f(x)\big]}\\\\\\ \mathsf{=\dfrac{f(x)}{3}-4}\\\\\\ \mathsf{=\dfrac{3x+12}{3}-4}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=\dfrac{\diagup\hspace{-7}3\cdot (x+4)}{\diagup\hspace{-7}3}-4}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=x+4-4}\\\\&#10;\mathsf{=x\qquad\quad\checkmark}

________


C.  Since f and g are inverse, then

f(g(– 2))

= (f o g)(– 2)

= – 2          <span>✔
</span>

•  Call h the compositon of f and g. So,

h(x) = (f o g)(x)

h(x) = x


As you can see above, there is no restriction for h. Therefore, the domain of h is R (all real numbers).


I hope this helps. =)
