Answer:
- -7.5x -12.5, x < -1
- 7.5x +2.5, x ≥ -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function changes slope at its vertex. Here, that vertex is translated to x = -1. To the left of that point, the function is equivalent to one that negates its argument:
|x| = -x . . . for x < 0
|x| = x . . . for x ≥ 0
<u>for (x+1) < 0</u>
y = -7.5(x +1) -5 = -7.5x -12.5
<u>for (x+1) ≥ 0</u>
y = 7.5(x +1) -5 = 7.5x +2.5
This means we can write the piecewise function as ...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first one, revenue - cost = profit. We have equations for revenue and profit, so filling in:
Let's add cost to both sides to make it positive and bring everything on the right over to the left and combine like terms:
For the second one:
P(x)*T(x) =
Distribute the 3x into everything inside the parenthesis to get
For the second part of that problem, C(x)*P(x) =
Distribute the x into everything first to get:
The distribute the -4 into everything to get:
Combine the like terms and put everything together to get
