The financially responsible choice would be for Jackson to lease a car for right now. as Jackson moves up in the company to a high paying position he should pay off the car. this way Jackson isn’t in any debt while he’s making his modest income and not have any money left.
If we let x as the number of years of service in the company and f(x) as the increase in the wage, the step wise function that describes the scenario is
f(x) = { 0.5, x < 3
{ 1.0, 3 ≤ x < 6
{ 1.5, 6 ≤ x < 9
{ 2.0, 9 ≤ x < 12
The point (2, 12) represents the wage increase of x < 12
Ming needs to play for 15 hours to get 500 points. They gave him 200 for signing up, so 500-200=300 more points needed. 300 divided by 20= 15 more hours.
Answer: q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k <em>where a is the vertical stretch and (h, k) is the vertex.</em>
Which coordinate shifts the graph up?<em> The y-coordinate for the vertex is k.</em>
p(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60
q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60 <u>+ 10</u>
= 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
