Answer:

(f - g)(3) = 6

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

Function Notation

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 4x - 2

g(x) = x + 1

Step 2: Find

Find (f - g)(x)

Substitute: (f - g)(x) = 4x - 2 - (x + 1)
Distribute -1: (f - g)(x) = 4x - 2 - x - 1
Combine like terms: (f - g)(x) = 3x - 3

Find (f - g)(3)

Substitute: (f - g)(3) = 3(3) - 3
Multiply: (f - g)(3) = 9 - 3
Subtract: (f - g)(3) = 6

A cell phone that regular costs $780 is on sale for 15% off. What is the total cost of the phone if you have to pay 5.5% sales t

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Regular cost of cell phone= $780

discount = 15%

tax = 5.5%

Step two

Let us compute the discounted amount

= 15/100*780

=0.15*780

=$117

hence the selling price is

=780-117

=$663

Also, the tax-deductible is

=5.5/100*663

=0.055*663

=$36.465

The total cost of the phone will be

=663+36.465

=699.465

=$700 to the nearest cent

Please help! It would be very much appreciated :)

Trava [24]

Answer:

Cos 45=6/x

x=6/cos 45=6√2

x=6√2

tan 45=y/6

y=tan45 ×6

y=6

sin 60=y/10

y=sin60×10

y=5√3

again

Cos 60=x/10

x=½×10

x=5

Sin 45=x/5

x=1/√2×5 or

x=5√2/2

again

y=5√2/2 or 5/√2[base angle of right angled isosceles triangle]

Sin 30=8/x

½×x=8

x=8*2

x=16

again

cos 30= y/x

√3/2×16=y

y=8√3

sin 60=7/x

x=7/[√3/2]

x=14/√3 or 14√3/3

again

cos 60=y/x

½×14√3/3=y

7√3/2=y

y=7√3/2

Note:

Sin angle =perpendicular/hypotenuse

Cos angle =base/hypotenuse

Tan angle =perpendicular /base

A customer deposits $500 in an account that pays 4% annual interest. What is the balance after 3 years if the interest is compou

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The compounded interes formula states that:

V(t) = P (1 + r/n)^ (nt)

t = years since initial deposit = 3

n = number of times compounded per year 1

r = annual interest rate (as a decimal) = 4% / 100 = 0.04

P = initial (principal) investment = $500

Then V(t) = $500 ( 1 + 0.04/1)^3 = 562,43

So the correct answer is option D.
