If you would like to know the price Jay can pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed, you can calculate this using the following steps:

100% + 40% = 140%

140% of x is $299
140% * x = 299
140/100 * x = 299      /*100/140
x = 299 * 100 / 140
x = $213.6

40% of $213.6 = 40% * 213.6 = 40/100 * 213.6 = 85.44
$213.6 + $85.44 = $299

The correct result would be $213.6.

The first sequence rule is subtract 8 starting from 72. The second sequence rule is subtract 6 starting from 58. What is the fir
Darya [45]

Answer:

A) 16

Step-by-step explanation:

1st sequence: 72-8x

2nd sequence: 58-6x

Set both sequences equal to each other and solve for x:

72-8x=58-6x

14-8x=-6x

14=2x

7=x

x=7

Plug x=7 back into the equation:

72-8(7)=58-6(7)

72-56=58-42

16=16

So the first number that appears in both sequences is 16.

Estimate and classify the critical points for the graph of the function<br> Please show work
ikadub [295]

The critical points of the function graphed are given as follows:

  • x = -1.5: Local maximum.
  • x = -1: Local minimum.

<h3>What are the critical points of a function?</h3>

The critical points of a function are the values of x for which:

f^{\prime}(x) = 0

In a graph, they are turning points, and are classified as follows:

  • Local maximum, if the functions changes from increasing to decreasing.
  • Local minimum, if the functions changes from decreasing to increasing.

Looking at the graph, the turning points are approximately:

  • x = -1.5: Local maximum.
  • x = -1: Local minimum.
