Answer:

30.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the percent change formula:

(difference / original) x 100

Find the difference:

3.65 - 2.54

= 1.11

Then, plug in the difference and original:

(difference / original) x 100

(1.11 / 3.65) x 100

= 30.4

So, the percent change in the cost of gas is 30.4%

Graph the function y = x3 + 3x2 – x – 3. Which lists all of the turning points of the graph? (–3, 0) and (1, 0) (–2, 3) and (0,
Vlada [557]

Answer with explanation:

The given function is:

  y=x³+3 x²-x-3

    =x²(x+3) -1(x+3)

    = (x²-1)(x+3)

   = (x-1)(x+1)(x+3)

Put, y=0 , gives

⇒ (x-1)(x+1)(x+3)=0

≡→x-1=0 ∧ → x+1=0 ∧→x+3=0

≡x=1, -1, -3

So, there are three breaking points in the curve.

1.⇒Putting, x=1 , in the function

y(1)=1³+3×1²-1 -3

  =1 +3-4

  =0

2. ⇒Putting, x=-1 , in the function

y(-1)=(-1)³+3×(-1)²-(-1) -3

  = -1 +3+1-3

  =0

3.⇒Putting, x=-3 , in the function

y(-3)=(-3)³+3×(-3)²-(-3) -3

  =-27+27+3-3

  =0

So, These are points where curve crosses the X axis, which are , (1,0),(-1,0) and (-3,0).

But turning points are those points where curve takes the turn , that is, if it is increasing function then it starts decreasing or becomes constant function after that point, and if it is a decreasing function then it becomes increasing or constant function.

So,turning points of the given function by looking at the graph of the function  by approximation

The product of a number and ten is twelve more than the product of the number and five-eighths.
ra1l [238]
Let the unknown number be x.

Given,

10 * x = 12 +  \frac{5}{8}  * x

10x = 12 +  \frac{5x}{8}

10x -  \frac{5x}{8} = 12

\frac{(10x*8)-5x}{8} = 12

80x-5x =12*8

75x = 96

x = \frac{96}{75} = 1.28

Hence, the number is 1.28
