ircut in 1998 and has been raising prices by a steady percentage each year to keep up with inflation.
What is the price of a haircut at the salon in 2008? Explain or show your reasoning.

Answer:

  • $22.12
  • $24.51

Step-by-step explanation:

For some growth factor f each year, the growth factor over 20 years is given as ...

  f^20 = 1 +0.51 = 1.51

Then the growth factor in 10 years is ...

  f^10 = (f^20)^(1/2) = √1.51 ≈ 1.22882

__

a) In the 10 years between 1998 and 2008, the price of a basic haircut would rise to ...

  $18 × 1.22882 ≈ $22.12 . . . price in 2008

__

b) In the 10 years between 2003 and 2013, the price of a basic haircut would rise to ...

  $19.95 × 1.22882 ≈ $24.51 . . . price in 2013

Find the perimeter AND area of the parallelogram ABCD. Show all work
nexus9112 [7]

Since, this is parallelogram

so, opposite sides are equal

We will find value of sides

Calculation of AB:

we are given point A=(-2,3)

point B=(4,0)

we can use distance formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

now, we can plug values

AB=\sqrt{(4+2)^2+(3-0)^2}

AB=3\sqrt{5}

Since, this is parallelogram

so, opposite sides are equal

so,

CD=AB=3\sqrt{5}

Calculation of AD:

point A =(-2,3)

point D=(-5,2)

we can use distance formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

now, we can plug values

AD=\sqrt{(-5+2)^2+(2-3)^2}

AD=\sqrt{10}

Since, this is parallelogram

so, opposite sides are equal

so,

BC=AD=\sqrt{10}

Calculation of AE:

point A=(-2,3)

point E=(-3,1)

we can use distance formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

now, we can plug values

AE=\sqrt{(-3+2)^2+(1-3)^2}

AE=\sqrt{5}

(a)

we know that

perimeter of a parallelogram is sum of all sides

so,

perimeter is

=AB+BC+CD+DA

now, we can plug values

=3\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{10}+3\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{10}

=6\sqrt{5}+2\sqrt{10}...........Answer

(b)

we can use area of parallelogram formula

A=AE\times CD

we can plug values

A=\sqrt{5}\times 3\sqrt{5}

A=15............Answer

The vertical asymptote of the function f(x) = 3 log(x + 3) is x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A symptote is a line that a curve approaches but never touches

  • The vertical asymptote of a logarithmic function is at the zero of the argument
  • f(x) = log(argument) has vertical aymptotes at  argument  = 0

∵ f(x) = 3 ㏒(x + 3)

∵ The argument is (x + 3)

- Equate the argument by zero

∵ x + 3 = 0

- Subtract 3 from both sides

∴ x = -3

- The vertical asymptote of a logarithmic function is at the zero

  of the argument

∴ The vertical asympotote of f(x) is x = -3

The vertical asymptote of the function f(x) = 3 log(x + 3) is x = -3

Explain how the Quotient of Powers was used to simplify this expression.
Ksju [112]
For this case we have the following expression:
 \frac{5^4}{25}
 Rewriting the expression we have:
 \frac{5^4}{5^2}
 In the division, if we have the same base, the exponents are subtracted.
 Therefore, by rewriting the expression we have:
 \frac{5^4}{5^2}=5^{4-2}
 5^{4-2} = 5^2&#10;
 Answer:
 
The equivalent expression is given by:
 
\frac{5^4}{25}=5^2
