Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost per item is found by dividing the cost by the number of items. If the woman bought n items for $120, the cost of each item is $120/n. If the woman bought 24 more items, n+24, at the same price, then the cost per item is $120/(n+24). The problem statement tells us this last cost is $16 less than the first cost:
120/(n+24) = (120/n) -16
Multiplying by n(n+24) gives ...
120n = 120(n+24) -16(n)(n+24)
0 = 120·24 -16n^2 -16·24n . . . . . . subtract 120n and collect terms
n^2 +24n -180 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -16 to make the numbers smaller
(n +30)(n -6) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor the quadratic
The solutions to this are the values of n that make the factors zero: n = -30, n = 6. The negative value of n has no meaning in this context, so n=6 is the solution to the equation.
The woman bought 6 items.

Check
When the woman bought 6 items for $120, she paid $120/6 = $20 for each of them. If she bought 6+24 = 30 items for the same money, she would pay $120/30 = $4 for each item. That amount, $4, is $16 less than the $20 she paid for each item.
Answer:
The left end approaches to + Infinite being an exponential function, and the right end to 0
Step-by-step explanation:
we have to remember the exponential function, the best way to find the answer is plotting the graph or arranging a table of values.
As you can see in the attached graph the y axis gets closer and closer to 0 as it moves forward in the x axis, and as it moves to the left the y axis starts increasing rapidly.
Also you got to keep in mind the way that functions behave in terms of the sign of its variable. for example the 10 in this equation only makes the curve to get wider, but if you change the sign to minus, the answer would be different.
