Answer:

$175

Step-by-step explanation:

let the original price be x

if 1/5 is off the price then the sells is at 4/5

4/5 of x = 140

thus,

4/5* x=140

4x = 140*5

x=700/4

x=$175

You earn $9.20 per hour at your summer job. Identify an inequality that represents the number p of hours you need to work in ord
Alex73 [517]

Answer:  <em>9.20p </em>\geq<em> 299</em>

<em>            The solution is p </em>\geq<em> 32.5</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to get the variable by itself. To do that you do the opposite of multiplication, which is division. 9.20p divided by 9.20 is just p.

Second, whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other, so you divide 299 by 9.20 to get 32.5.

I hope this helped!

You will need three roots for this, so we have
 Let x = -30, -10 and +20
So the factors will be  (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
The divide it to 100, this will help bring the peak up and down
So the polynomial function R(x) will become
1/100 *  (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
R(x) = 1/100 * (x+30)(x+10)(x-20)
 
Finding the X-intercept:
Let R(x) = 0 and solve for x.
1/100 * (x+30)(x+10)(x-20) = 0
x = -30, -10, 20 are the x-intercepts.
