Answer:

Approach: Difference of Squares Pattern

4 {x}^{2}  - 25 = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given binomial is:

4 {x}^{2}  - 25

We can rewrite to obtain:

{(2x)}^{2}  -  {5}^{2}

This is a difference of two squares, so we will factor using difference of squares pattern.

Recall that:

{a}^{2} -  {b}^{2}   = (a + b)(a - )

If we let

a = 2x

and

b = 5

Then we can factor the given binomial to obtain:

{2x}^2 -  {5}^{2}  = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)

\therefore4 {x}^{2}  - 25 = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)

Let the graph of g be a translation 5 units up followed by a reflection about the y−axis of the graph of f(x)=6x. Write a rule f
yan [13]

Reflections and translations are instances of transformation.

<em>The rule of function g for the given reflection and translation is </em>g(x) =-6x + 5<em />

<em />

Given

f(x) = 6x

<u>The rule of translating 5 units up is:</u>

(x,y) \to (x,y+5)

So, we have:

f'(x) = f(x) +5

f'(x) = 6x +5

<u>The rule of reflecting about the y-axis is:</u>

(x,y) \to (-x,y)

So, we have:

g(x) =f(-x)

g(x) =6(-x) + 5

g(x) =-6x + 5

Hence, the rule of function g is: g(x) =-6x + 5

F(x) = 15,000(.84) shows the value of a car each year. Describe the following:
makvit [3.9K]

Answers:

  • a) 15000 represents the starting amount
  • b) The decay rate is 16%, which means the car loses 16% of its value each year.
  • c) x is the number of years
  • d) f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by

========================================================

Explanation:

We have the function f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x. If we plug in x = 0, then we get,

f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x

f(0) = 15000(0.84)^0

f(0) = 15000(1)

f(0) = 15000

In the third step, I used the idea that any nonzero value to the power of 0 is always 1. The rule is x^0 = 1 for any nonzero x.

So that's how we get the initial value of the car. The car started off at $15,000.

-------------

The growth or decay rate depends entirely on the base of the exponential, which is 0.84; compare it to 1+r and we see that 1+r = 0.84 solves to r = -0.16 which converts to -16%. The negative indicates the value is going down each year. So we have 16% decay or the value is going down 16% per year.

------------

The value of x is the number of years. In the first section, x = 0 represented year 0 or the starting year. If x = 1, then one full year has passed by. For x = 2, we have two full years pass by, and so on.

------------

The value of f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by. We found that f(x) = 15000 when x = 0. In other words, at the start the car is worth $15,000. Plugging in other x values leads to other f(x) values. For example, if x = 2, then you should find that f(x) = 10584. This means the car is worth $10,584 after two years.

Company A manufactures and sells gidgets. The owners have determined that the company has the monthly revenue and cost functions
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Option A.  356 gidgets

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

R(x) ----> the monthly revenue function

C(x) ---> the monthly cost function

x ----> the number of gidgets sold

R(x)=16x

C(x)=12x+1,424

we know that

Break-even means that the revenue equals cost

so

16x=12x+1,424

solve for x

16x-12x=1,424

4x=1,424

x=356\ gidgets
