Answer:

8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Shipping Company A = 14 + 2.25p

Shipping Company B = 20 + 1.50p

Where,

p = the number of pounds.

For what weight is the charge the same for the two companies

Equate the charges of the two companies

14 + 2.25p = 20 + 1.50p

14 - 20 = 1.50p - 2.25p

-6 = -0.75p

Divide both sides by -0.75

p = -6 / -0.75

= 8

p = 8 pounds

Please help with question 2, I’m too tired to think right now, and it’s for my little sister and it’s due tomorrow! Ignore the n
marishachu [46]

Answer:

2000 L

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1250 L of water in a tank at present. If the tank is 0.625 full, what is the capacity of the tank?

The simple solution is:

1250 L ÷ 0.625 = 2000 L

The algebraic solution is:

Let <em>c</em> equal the capacity of the tank.

Therefore, <em>c</em> × 0.625 = 1250.

Divide both sides by 0.625:

<em>c</em> × 0.625 ÷ 0.625 = 1250 ÷ 0.625

And simplify:

<em>c</em> = 1250 ÷ 0.625

<em>c</em> = 2000

Given f(x) = x − 7 and g(x) = x2 . Find g(f(−1)).
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

g(f(-1)) can be found by first finding f(-1) then taking that result and putting it into the function g.

f(-1) means we are going to take the expression x-7 and evaluate it for x=-1:  

-1-7

-8

So f(-1)=-8.

So we have this so far:

g(f(-1))=g(-8)=(-8)^2=64.

g(-8) was found by replacing x in x^2 with -8.
