Answer:

  A.  40.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price for a $5 profit will be ...

  $12.75 +5.00 = $17.75

From $29.95, this represents a change of ...

  (17.75 -29.95)/29.95 × 100%

  = -12.20/29.95 × 100% ≈ -40.7346%

The bookstore can offer a maximum discount of about 40.7%.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

h= -8/3

Picture Explanation:

  1. Divide 3 on both sides of the equal sign, as shown above, so (h) can be alone.
  2. Since negative 8, let alone positive 8, can't be divided into 3, you simply leave the fraction as is. So you're left with (h= -8/3)

<em><u>Hope this makes sense.</u></em>

It would be A because with volume you would have your 12 to the 3rd power then multiply it by pie which is 3.14 then for sphere you would then multiply what ever you got after multiplying 12 to the 3rd power then by 3.14 to the 4/3

Is (x+7) a factor of f(x)= x^3-3x^2+2x-8
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use synthetic division to answer this.  If the remainder is zero, then we can safely assume the divisor (x + 7) is a factor of the polynomial f(x)= x^3-3x^2+2x-8.

We use -7 as the divisor in synth. div.  This comes from the factor (x + 7):

-7   /    1    3     2     -8

               -7   28  -210

     -------------------------

         1      -4   30   -218

Here, the remainder is -218, not zero, so no, (x+7) is not a factor of f(x)= x^3-3x^2+2x-8.
