Answer: $184

$84 = p/2 - $8

$84 + $8 = p/2

$92 = p/2

$92*2 = p

P = $184

Step-by-step explanation:

onsidering that the original price was first halved and then subtracted by 8$ to get a value of 84$, you can reverse all the steps made to get 84$. So first, 84$ + 8$, then (84$+8$) * 2 to reverse it from being halved, and your answer is 184$.

Lori want to distribute 35 peaches equally into baskets. she will use more than 1 but fewer than 10 baskets how many basket Lori
Hunter-Best [27]
Unless this is a trick question, I think 7 baskets. If you have 7 baskets then you can put 5 peaches in each basket. Hope this is right.

Let f(x)=5x3−60x+5 input the interval(s) on which f is increasing. (-inf,-2)u(2,inf) input the interval(s) on which f is decreas
o-na [289]
Answers:

(a) f is increasing at (-\infty,-2) \cup (2,\infty).

(b) f is decreasing at (-2,2).

(c) f is concave up at (2, \infty)

(d) f is concave down at (-\infty, 2)

Explanations:

(a) f is increasing when the derivative is positive. So, we find values of x such that the derivative is positive. Note that

f'(x) = 15x^2 - 60&#10;

So,

&#10;f'(x) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 15x^2 - 60 \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 15(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textgreater \  0} \text{   (1)}

The zeroes of (x - 2)(x + 2) are 2 and -2. So we can obtain sign of (x - 2)(x + 2) by considering the following possible values of x:

-->> x < -2
-->> -2 < x < 2
--->> x > 2

If x < -2, then (x - 2) and (x + 2) are both negative. Thus, (x - 2)(x + 2) > 0.

If -2 < x < 2, then x + 2 is positive but x - 2 is negative. So, (x - 2)(x + 2) < 0.
 If x > 2, then (x - 2) and (x + 2) are both positive. Thus, (x - 2)(x + 2) > 0.

So, (x - 2)(x + 2) is positive when x < -2 or x > 2. Since

f'(x) \ \textgreater \  0 \Leftrightarrow (x - 2)(x + 2)  \ \textgreater \  0

Thus, f'(x) > 0 only when x < -2 or x > 2. Hence f is increasing at (-\infty,-2) \cup (2,\infty).

(b) f is decreasing only when the derivative of f is negative. Since

f'(x) = 15x^2 - 60

Using the similar computation in (a), 

f'(x) \ \textless \  \ 0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 15x^2 - 60 \ \textless \  0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 15(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \ \textless \  0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textless \  0} \text{ (2)}

Based on the computation in (a), (x - 2)(x + 2) < 0 only when -2 < x < 2.

Thus, f'(x) < 0 if and only if -2 < x < 2. Hence f is decreasing at (-2, 2)

(c) f is concave up if and only if the second derivative of f is positive. Note that

f''(x) = 30x - 60

Since,

f''(x) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 30x - 60 \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 30(x - 2) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow x - 2 \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{x \ \textgreater \  2}

Therefore, f is concave up at (2, \infty).

(d) Note that f is concave down if and only if the second derivative of f is negative. Since,

f''(x) = 30x - 60

Using the similar computation in (c), 

f''(x) \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 30x - 60 \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 30(x - 2) \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow x - 2 \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{x \ \textless \  2}

Therefore, f is concave down at (-\infty, 2).

Find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of the linear equation y=−1/7x+2.
Andreyy89

Point-slope form :-

... y = mx + b

<em>In this equation, 'm' represents the slope and 'b' represents the y-intercept. </em>

Given :-

... y = -1/7x + 2

<u><em>Hence, the slope is -1/7 and y-intercept is 2 or ( 0 , 2 ) </em></u>

Hope it helps!!
