Mathematics
1 answer:
galben [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This is a 25% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

percent change = (old - new)/old * 100 %

The new price is 15

The old price is 20

Since the new price is less than the old price, it is a decrease

percent change = (20-15)/20 * 100 %

                           = 5/20 * 100%

                            =.25 * 100%

                             = 25%

This is a 25% decrease

Determine the domain of the function (f o g)(x) where f(x)= 3/x+2 and g=5/x.
vitfil [10]

Answer:

The Domain is all real values of x except x = 0 and x = -2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that f(x) = 3/(x + 2).

(f o g)x is found by substituting  5/x for the x in 3/(x + 2).

(f o g) x = 3/ ( 5/x + 2)

= 3 / ( 5+2x) / x

= 3x / (5 + 2x).

When finding the domain you  first check for values of x which make g(x) undefined then values of x which make (f o g)(x) undefined.

x = 0 makes  g(x) = 5/0 so it is undefined and  x = -2.5 makes g o f undefined also.

In Lily's garden, there are 5 rose bushes the first year. Each year, she adds two new rose bushes. She
aniked [119]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of years since the first year and let y = the total number of plants.

Roses: y = 5 + 2x

Tulips: y = 20 – 3x

You can use elimination to solve.

y = 5 + 2x

(-)y = 20 – 3x

0 = -15 + 5x

15 = 5x

3 = x

This means that 3 years after the first year, the number of rose bushes equals the number of tulip plants.

The graphs appear to

intersect at (3, 11) which verifies that x=3
