Absolute value functions are v-shaped. I hthink the turning point you're referring to is the vertex. This is where the inside of the absolute value is zero.
f(x) = |x+2|
0 = x+2
-2 = x
vertex (-2,0)
Answer:
First term: 5
Fourth term: 5 1/2
Tenth term: 6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the first, fourth and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule:
A(n) = 5 + (n-1) (1/6)
First term:
A(1) = 5 + (1-1) (1/6)
A(1) = 5 + (0) (1/6)
A(1) = 5
Fourth term:
A(4) = 5 + (4-1) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + (3) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + 3/6 = 5 3/6 = 5 1/2 (simplifying)
Tenth term:
A(10) = 5 + (10-1) (1/6)
A(10) = 5 + (9) (1/6)
A (10) = 5 + 9/6 = 6 3/6 = 6 1/2 (simplifying)
So, first, you have to find the smallest number that is divisible by both 12 and 10. Which is 60. So, you need 5 boxes of trophies and 6 boxes of stands
Now to get how much it will cost you now multiply the respective costs by the amount of boxes so you get
5 x 10 = 50
6 x 6 = 36
Then you add both
50 + 36 = 86
He will spend a total of $86 on both trophies and stands.
(s÷t) - r is the correct expression.
