B = 2

Rearrange:
3b - 13 = -b - 5

Eliminate b from right side:
3b - 13 + b = -b - 5 + b

4b - 13 = -5

Eliminate 13 on the left:
4b - 13 + 13 = -5 + 13

4b = 8

Simplify:
8 / 4 = 2

b = 2

An mp3 player is on sale for 30% off the regular price of $39. 98. How much is the discount? a. $11. 99 b. $13. 19 c. $13. 33 d.
Andrej [43]

The cost of the mp3 player after the discount is $27.98.

<h3>What is percentage?</h3>

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by whole and multiply by 100.

Given

An mp3 player is on sale for 30% off the regular price of $39. 98.

The price of the mp3 player after the 30% is given

\rm Cost \ of \ player \ after \ discount = Cost \ of \ player \times discount\\\\\rm Cost \ of \ player \ after \ discount = 39.98\times 0.30\\\\\rm Cost \ of \ player \ after \ discount = 11.99

The cost of mp3 player after 30% discount is;

= $39.98 - $11.99 = $27.98

Hence, the cost of the mp3 player after the discount is $27.98.

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for h(t) = 0, we find ...

  0 = -16t^2 +256

  0 = -t^2 +16 . . . . . . divide by 16

  t^2 = 16 . . . . . . . . . .add t^2

  t = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . . .positive square root

The ball hits the ground after 4 seconds.

Which statements are true about the linear inequality y &gt; 3/4x – 2? Check all that apply. The slope of the line is –2. The gr
strojnjashka [21]
1. Consider the function f(x)= \frac{3}{4}x-2.

It is a linear function, so to draw its graph 2 points are enough:
f(4)=(3/4)*4-2=3-2=1
f(0)=(3-4)*0-2=-2 

so 2 points on this line are (0, -2) and (4, 1). Check the picture 1: 

2. The problem considers the inequality y>f(x)

a. the slope of the line y=ax+b is the coefficient of x, so a. In our case a=3/4, not -2

b. The graph of any linear inequality is a shaded region, not a line or a shaded line.

c. Either the part below the line, or the part above the line will be shaded since we are talking about an inequality. 

Check (4, -3), picture 2, which is clearly below the line.

now here y=-3, and f(4)=(3/4)(4)-2=3-2=1, so in this region y<f(x)=(3/4)x-2

So clearly the region where the inequality holds, so the region to color, is the part above the line.

d. The line itself is not dashed, only if we have an "equal to or smaller than" or "equal to or larger than" inequality.

e. (0, 0) is in the region above the line so YES, it is a solution.

We can also check it like this: y=0, f(0)=(3/4)0-2=-2 so y>f(0)

f. The y-intercept is always f(0). In this case f(0)=-2
