8 0

Answer:

70% in favor of building a new playground

3500 (in favor) + 1500 (against it) = 5000 (total number votes)

3500 (in favor) 1500 (against it)

------------------- = 0.7 / 70% ------------------- =0.3 / 30%

5000 (total) 5000 (total)

Which of the following statements have the same result? Explain each step in solving each one.

QveST [7]

First: f(2) is same as f(x=2) so all we have to do is to express x=2 in f(x)
f(2) = 3*2 + 2 = 8

Second
f^(-1) (3) is inverse function. first we solve f(x) for x.
let f(x) be equal to some variable m
m = (2x -7)/3
3m = 2x - 7
2x = 3m + 7
x = (3m + 7)/3
now we write:
f^-1(x) = (3x + 7)/3

x=3
f^-1(3) = 16/3

Third
2y + 14 = 4y - 2
we just solve for y
2y = 16
y = 8

Now we take that f(x) = y because we both write to be the functions of x

that means that First and third have same result.

Jasmine is baking and selling cupcakes for $15 per dozen.She would like to make more than $120 in cupcake sales. Which number li

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Jasmine is baking and selling cupcakes for $15 per dozen.

Let x be the number of dozens of cupcake made by Jasmine.

Her total sales= Sales Per Dozen X Number of Dozens of cupcake sold

= $15 X x = $15x

Since she would like to make more than $120 in cupcake sales.

It means her total sales must be greater than $120.

15x>120

x>120/15

x>8

The number line attached represents the solutions to the situation.

All integers to the right of 8 (excluding 8) satisfies the situation.

Chase has 3 gallons of a solution that is 30% antifeeze that he wants to use to winterize his car. How much pure antifreeze shou

makvit [3.9K]

Let x gallons be the amount of pure antifreeze that should be added to the 30% solution to produce a solution that is 65% antifreeze. Then the total amount of antifreeze solution will be x+3 gallons.

There are 30% of pure antifreeze in 3 gallons of solution, then

3 gallons - 100%,

a gallons - 30%,

where a gallons is the amount of pure antifreeze in given solution.

Mathematically,

$\dfrac{3}{a}=\dfrac{100}{30},\\ \\a=\dfrac{3\cdot 30}{100}=0.9\ gallons.$

Now in new solution there will be x+0.9 gallons of pure antefreeze.

x+3 gallons - 100%,

x+0.9 - 65%

$\dfrac{x+3}{x+0.9}=\dfrac{100}{65},\\ \\65(x+3)=100(x+0.9),\\ \\65x+195=100x+90,\\ \\35x=105,\\ \\x=3\ gallons.$

Answer: he should add 3 gallons of pure antifreeze.
