Someone pls help!

Your father earned $34,000 per year in 1984. To the nearest dollar, what is that equivalent to in 2014 if the CPI in 2014 is 2

xeze [42]

Answer:

The answer is : 70288.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Your father earned $34,000 per year in 1984.

The CPI in 2014 is 215 and the CPI in 1984 is 104.

The CPI or consumer price index examines the weighted average of prices of goods and services like transportation, food etc.

The Current income equivalent will be = value in 1984 X ( CPI in 2014/CPI in 1984)

$34000\times\frac{215}{104}$ = 70288.46

At a store, Michael and Tonya bought bananas.

Anton [14]

C

Let x be the cost of banana

Michael: 4x=2.72
Divide by 4 : x =.68

Tonya: 6x= 4.08
x = .68 divide by 6

How do I find each measure? Please I need answers ASAP it's due at 1:50

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Angle CAD is 44 degrees

Angle ACD is 44 degrees

Angle ACB is 136 degrees

Angle ABC is 22 degrees

Explanation:

29. Triangle ADC is an isosceles triangle because it has two equal sides.

If segments AD and DC are congruent, then segment AC is the base and the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.

Let x be angle CAD.

Let's go ahead x;

$\begin{gathered} 92+x+x=180\text{ (sum of angles in a triangle)} \\ 92+2x=180 \\ 2x=180-92 \\ 2x=88 \\ x=\frac{88}{2} \\ \therefore x=44^{\circ} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, measure of angle CAD is 44 degrees.

30. Measure of angle ACD is 44 degrees (Base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal)

31. Let angle ACB be y,

Let's go ahead and find measure of angle ACB;

$\begin{gathered} 44+y=180\text{ (angles on a straight line)} \\ y=180-44 \\ \therefore y=136^{\circ} \end{gathered}$

So measure of angle ACB is 136 degrees.

32. Let angle ABC be z.

Triangle ACB is also an isosceles triangle so the base angles are the same.

Let's go ahead and find z;

$\begin{gathered} 136+z+z=180_{}\text{ (sum of angles in a triangle)} \\ 138+2z=180 \\ 2z=180-136 \\ 2z=44 \\ z=\frac{44}{2} \\ \therefore z=22^{\circ} \end{gathered}$

So measure of angle ABC is 22 degrees.

Can someone help me with this? I need to find the points of discontinuity/limits for each of these. I think one point is 4, but

Debora [2.8K]

The answers are shown in the attached image

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

Explanation:

Set the denominator x^4-8x^3+16x^2 equal to zero and solve for x

x^4-8x^3+16x^2 = 0
x^2(x^2-8x+16) = 0
x^2(x-4)^2 = 0
x^2 = 0 or (x-4)^2 = 0
x = 0 or x-4 = 0
x = 0 or x = 4

The x values 0 and 4 make the denominator zero

These x values lead to asymptote discontinuities because the numerator 8x-24 = 8(x-3) has no common factors which cancel with the denominator factors.

There are two vertical asymptotes

Let's see what happens when we plug in a value to the left of x = 0, say x = -1, we'd get
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(-1) = (8(-1)-24)/((-1)^4-8(-1)^3+16(-1)^2)
f(-1) = -1.28
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the left side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity

Now plug in some value to the right of x = 0. I'm going to pick x = 1
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(1) = (8(1)-24)/((1)^4-8(1)^3+16(1)^2)
f(1) = -1.78 (approximate)
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the right side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity

Overall, as x approaches 0 from either the left or right side of x = 0, the y value is heading off to negative infinity

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

Repeat for values to the left and right of x = 4
We can't use x = 1 as it turns out that x = 3 is a root
But we can use something like x = 3.5 to find that...
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(3.5) = (8(3.5)-24)/((3.5)^4-8(3.5)^3+16(3.5)^2)
f(3.5) = 1.31 approx
So as x gets closer to x = 4 from the left, y is getting closer to positive infinity

Plug in x = 5 to find that
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(5) = (8(5)-24)/((5)^4-8(5)^3+16(5)^2)
f(5) = 0.64
which has the same behavior as the left side

So overall, as we approach x = 4, the y value is heading off to positive infinity

Again everything is summarized in the image attachment

Note: you could make a table of more values but they would effectively say what has already been said. It would be redundant busy work. However, its always good practice for function evaluation.
