11.
Every handshake takes 2. If no one shakes hands twice with another, there are 10+1 total people shaking hands (11).

Name them 1 thru 11. Make a line and 11 goes down the line and shakes 10 hands and then leaves. 10 then shakes 9 hands and leaves. 8 then shakes 7 hands and leaves. Etc. 2 shakes hands with 1 and leaves. 1 just leaves.

11— 10 hs

10— 9 hs

9— 8 hs

8— 7 hs

7— 6 hs

6— 5 hs

5— 4 hs

4— 3 hs

3— 2 hs

2— 1 hs

1— leaves

Total handshakes 55, total people 11.

Stacy bought a skateboard at a local sporting goods store. The skateboard was on sale for 10% off the original price. The store
yarga [219]
If the original price is x, then x-0.10x=0.9x (which is a 10 percent off discount - 10 percent = 0.10 if you move the decimal spot 2 places over), then 10% of 0.9x is not 0.10x due to that 0.1/0.9=1/9, not 1/10. 1/10 of 0.9 is 0.09, so
 0.9-0.09=0.81 of the original price

If the 10% sales tax was added first, it wouldn't matter since you're still getting 10% twice either way

Given the functions f and g, explain why you cannot find f⋅g.
Delvig [45]

We can't write the product because there is no common input in the tables of g(x) and f(x).

<h3>Why you cannot find the product between the two functions?</h3>

If two functions f(x) and g(x) are known, then the product between the functions is straightforward.

g(x)*f(x)

Now, if we only have some coordinate pairs belonging to the function, we only can write the product if we have two coordinate pairs with the same input.

For example, if we know that (a, b) belongs to f(x) and (a, c) belongs to g(x), then we can get the product evaluated in a as:

(g*f)(a) = f(a)*g(a) = b*c

Particularly, in this case, we can see that there is no common input in the two tables, then we can't write the product of the two functions.

8. Sven sells hamburgers at a ballpark. He earns $14.50/h, plus $0.50
Komok [63]

Answer:

Part A: $55.50

Part B: 52 hamburgers(sorry if I am wrong for part b but I think it is right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:     $14.50 x 3= $43.50  +         24 x $0.50= $12=        

 ($ earned per hrs  x hrs worked)+  ($ per hamburger sold x times amount)

Hence $43.50 + $12= $55.50.

Part B:        $14.50 x 6.5 = $94.25                           $120 - $94.25= $25.75

 ($ earned per hrs  x hrs worked x x hrs worked)   ($ earned - $ earn from shif

 $25.75/0.50=51.5 (51.5 rounded to nearest burgers is 52 burgers)

Hence answer is 52 burgers.
