Help please!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alina [70]2 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 8x - 9

Then

For a.

f(3y - 1 ) = 8(3y - 1 ) - 9

= 24y - 8 - 9

= 24y - 17

Now for b.

f(x) = - 23

or, 8x - 9 = - 23

8x = - 23 + 9

8x = - 14

x = - 14 / 8

x = - 7 / 4

Hope it will help :)

Using an exponential function, it is found that f(5.5) = 19.8.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An exponential function is a function in which the growth rate is a percentage, modeled by:

y = ab^x

In which:

  • a is the initial value.
  • b is the rate of change.

f(3.5) = 25 means that:

ab^{3.5} = 25

a = \frac{25}{b^{3.5}}

f(8.5) = 14 means that:

ab^{8.5} = 14

Hence:

\frac{25}{b^{3.5}} \times b^{8.5} = 14

25b^5 = 14

b = \sqrt[5]{\frac{14}{25}}

b = 0.89

a = \frac{25}{0.89^{3.5}} = 37.59

Hence, the function is given by:

y = 37.59(0.89)^x

Then, when x = 5.5:

f(5.5) = 37.59(0.89)^{5.5} = 19.8

The local supermarket buys lettuce each day to ensure really fresh produce. Each morning any lettuce that is left from the previ
jekas [21]

Given Information:

Cost price = $4

Selling price = $10

Salvage value = $1.50

Average demand = μ = 250 boxes

Standard deviation = σ = 34 boxes

Required Information:

Number of lettuce boxes = ?

Answer:

The supermarket should purchase 268 boxes  of lettuce

Step-by-step explanation:

The required number of lettuce boxes that supermarket should purchase is given by

Number of lettuce boxes = μ + (z*σ)

Where μ is the average demand of lettuce boxes, σ is the standard deviation, and z is the z-score which is given by

p = C_us/(C_us + C_os)

The z-score corresponding to probability p will be obtained.

The cost of under stocking is given by

C_us = Selling price - Cost price

C_us = $10 - $4

C_us = $6

The cost of over stocking is given by

C_os = Cost price - Salvage value

C_os = $4 - $1.50

C_os = $2.50

p = C_us/(C_us + C_os)

p = 6/(6 + 2.50)

p = 0.7058

p  = 70.58%

The z-score corresponding to 70.58% probability is approximately 0.54

Number of lettuce boxes = μ + (z*σ)

Number of lettuce boxes = 250 + (0.54*34)

Number of lettuce boxes = 250 + (18.36)

Number of lettuce boxes = 268.36

Number of lettuce boxes ≈ 268

Therefore, the supermarket should purchase 268 boxes of lettuce.

How to use z-table?

Step 1:

In the z-table, find the probability you are looking for and note down the two-digit number of the given row. (e.g 0.5, 2.2, 0.5 etc.)

Step 2:

Then look up at the top of z-table and note down the value in the column for the remaining decimal point in the range of 0.00 to 0.09.

Step 3:

Finally, add the numbers obtained from step 1 and step 2.

In your own words, explain why there is no solution to the following equation:| x-6|= -8 Also, knowing this, how does it help to
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two lines before and after the expression means absolute value, or modulus of, knowing this, it means that the answer must always yield positive. So if x-6 is positive, it will stay positive, if x-6 is negative, it will turn positive, therefore it can never yield a negative value.

Now im assuming the second question is meant to be absolute value of x-5 is less than 0, because it makes no sense otherwise.

So now knowing that x-5 is always positive, or 0, but this inequality only wants less than 0, this means there are no solutions for the inequality.

I don't know how to do this​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

x = -11/5 and y = 24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use elimination.

First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.

We can multiply the top equation by 2.

So we get

4x + 6y = 20

Then, we can use elimination.

The x's cancel out.

So we get 5y = 24

Or y = 24/5

Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.

2x + 3(24/5) = 10

2x + 72/5 = 50/5

2x = -22/5

x = -11/5

So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
