Answer:

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

y = 0.75x

He should work at the car wash.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

$42.75/57 = $0.75

Each candy bar costs $0.75

We can confirm that by dividing $38.25/51 = $0.75

1 candy bar sells for $0.75

2 candy bars sell for $0.75 * 2

x candy bars sell for 0.75 * x, or simply 0.75x

The equation is y = 0.75x

y = 0.75x

y = 0.75 * 36

y = 27

Larry raised $27 by selling candy bars last year. This year, he can earn more than that by working at the car wash.

He should work at the car wash.

Solve the compound inequality 4x – 7 > 5 or 5x + 4 ≤ –6

bija089 [108]

Answer:

inequality form: x $\leq$ -2 or x > 3

interval notation form: (-∞,-2] ∪ (3,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

I attached a picture that shows all the work. You begin by isolating then solving for x on both sides. Then form a solution using the information found out about x. For example, you can combine the found inequalities for x to solve that x must be GREATER than 3 while being LESS than -2. Using that you can form an line and make a line. Remember, when writing in interval notation form you always begin from the left to the right (in reference) to the number line.

Y=3(x+1)(x-5)<br><br> Explain how to solve these quadratics.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Y=3(x+1)(x-5)
I'm going to ignore 3 for now, but will add it later.
FOIL the (x+1)(x-5)
F = multiply the First numbers x and x
O = multiply the Outside numbers x and -5
I = multiply the Inside number 1 and x
L = multiply the Last numbers 1 and -5
3(x^2 + -5x + 1x + -5)
add -5x and x
3(x^2 + -4x + -5)
multiply the numbers inside the parenthesis by 3
3x^2 + -12x + -15

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)2 + 2(x – 3) - 8= 0? Use u substitution to solve.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = - 1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

Let u = x - 3, then

u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u

(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4

u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2

Convert back to x, that is

x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5

Answer: 2.)non function 3.)non function 4.) function 5.)non function 6.) non function 7.)function 8.)non function PART B 1.)non function 2.)function 3.) function

Step-by-step explanation: a function is when the domain (x) all each have one answer like (-2.6)(7,4)(8,6) there can be repeating ranges (y) just not domains.

A non function is when one domain (x) has multiple ranges(y) like (7,2)(-9,6)(7,9) the 7 repeats twice giving it two ranges, which causes it to be non functional. hope that helped :))
