The function f (x) = .85x+3.99 models the total cost of purchasing x key chains from an internet company that charges shipping t

he function g (x) = 1.10x models the total purchasing of x number of the same key chains from an company that does not charge shipping. Rounding to the nearest whole number what is the best approximation of the number of key chains for which the two companies charge the same amount?

Answer:

16 key chains

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 0.85x + 3.99 ---company A

g(x) = 1.10x --- company B

Required

Value of x when f(x) = g(x)

We have:

f(x) = g(x)

0.85x + 3.99 = 1.10x

Collect like terms

0.85x - 1.10x = -3.99

-0.25x = -3.99

Solve for x

x = \frac{-3.99}{-0.25}

x = 15.96

x= 16 --- approximated

Here are descriptions for how two dot patterns are growing,
Arisa [49]

The steps in the patterns A and B form a sequence

The attached diagram represents dots in patterns A and B

<h3>How to draw the diagrams</h3>

For pattern A, we have:

Step 2 = 10 dots

Increment of 3 dots in each step

This means that:

Step 0 = 4 dots

Step 1 = 7 dots

Step 2 = 10 dots

Step 3 = 13 dots

For pattern A, we have the following rule

T_n =2n^2 + 1

When n = 0 to 3, we have:

T_0 =2(0)^2 + 1 =1

Step 0 = 1 dot

T_1 =2(1)^2 + 1 =3

Step 1 = 3 dots

T_2 =2(2)^2 + 1 =9

Step 2 =  9 dots

T_3 =2(3)^2 + 1 =19

Step 3 =  19 dots

Next, we draw the diagrams of both patterns (see attachment)

If you create a matrix, C, to show the inventory at the end of July, the value of the entry represented by C22 is ?
Inga [223]

Answer:

C_{22} = 389

Max(A_{31}) =376

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Solving (a): The entry C22

First, matrix C represents the inventory at the end of July.

The entry of C is calculated as:

C = Inventory - Sales

i.e.

C = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}543&356&643\\364&476&419\\376&903&409\end{array}\right]  -  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}102&78&97\\98&87&59\\54&89&79\end{array}\right]

C = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}543-102&356-78&643-97\\364-98&476-87&419-59\\376-54&903-89&409-79\end{array}\right]

C = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}441&278&546\\266&389&360\\322&814&330\end{array}\right]

Item C22 means the entry at the second row and the second column.

From the matrix

C_{22} = 389

Solving (b): The maximum A31 possible.

From the given data, we have:

Inventory = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}543&356&643\\364&476&419\\376&903&409\end{array}\right]

Unit\ Sales =   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}102&78&97\\98&87&59\\54&89&79\end{array}\right]

From the matrices above.

A31 means entry at the 3rd row and 1st column.

So, the possible values of A31 are:

A_{31} = 376

and

A_{31} = 54

By comparison, 376 > 54

So:

Max(A_{31}) =376

finlep [7]

Answer:

16/40

Step-by-step explanation:

The example probability is literally the probability determined FROM EXPERIMENTATION.

Since the "experiment" gave 16 successes out of 40 trials (16 heads + 24 tails), the E.P. is 16/40
