Answer:

The sales tax in one state is 5%. Write a function rule for finding the total cost of an item with selling price x. Then find the total cost of a CD player with a selling price of $110.

A. f(x) = 5 + x; $111.05

B. f(x) = 0.05x; $5.50

C. f(x) = x � 5; $108.95

D. f(x) =1.05x; $115.50  

total cost = (price) + (5% of price)

f(x) = x + 0.05x

f(x) = 1.05x

So the function is f(x) = 1.05x

Plug in x = 110 to get

f(x) = 1.05x

f(110) = 1.05*110

f(110) = 115.50

The item costs $115.50 (after tax is added on)

Step-by-step explanation:

1:    the total cost of a CD player would be 104.76

2:    Total Cost = (price) + (5% of price)

f(x) = x + 0.05x

f(x) = 1.05x

So the function is f(x) = 1.05x

Plug in x = 110 into the function

f(110) = 1.05*110

f(110) = 115.50

The item costs $115.50

3:    Answer:

f(x) = .05x; $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = .05x

f(110) = .05(110) = $5.50

There is a line through the origin that divides the region bounded by the parabola y=2x-4x^2 and the x-axis into two regions wit
shtirl [24]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

y = 7x - 4x² 

<span>7x - 4x² = 0 </span>

<span>x(7 - 4x) = 0 </span>

<span>x = 0, 7/4 </span>

<span>Find the area of the bounded region... </span>

<span>A = ∫ 7x - 4x² dx |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2 x² - 4/3 x³ |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2(7/4)² - 4/3(7/4)³ - 0 = 3.573 </span>

<span>Half of this area is 1.786, now set up an integral that is equal to this area but bounded by the parabola and the line going through the origin... </span>

<span>y = mx + c </span>

<span>c = 0 since it goes through the origin </span>

<span>The point where the line intersects the parabola we shall call (a, b) </span>

<span>y = mx ===> b = m(a) </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a </span>

<span>Now we need to integrate from 0 to a to find the area bounded by the parabola and the line... </span>

<span>1.786 = ∫ 7x - 4x² - (b/a)x dx |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)x² - (4/3)x³ - (b/2a)x² |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (b/2a)a² - 0 </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - b(a/2) </span>

<span>Remember that (a, b) is also a point on the parabola so y = 7x - 4x² ==> b = 7a - 4a² </span>
<span>Substitute... </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7a - 4a²)(a/2) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7/2)a² + 2a³ </span>

<span>(2/3)a³ = 1.786 </span>

<span>a = ∛[(3/2)(1.786)] </span>

<span>a = 1.39 </span>

<span>b = 7(1.39) - 4(1.39)² = 2.00 </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a = 2.00 / 1.39 = 1.44</span>

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: g(6) = 4 - 2 x 6

Step 2: g(6) = 4 - 12

Step 3: g(6) = -8

Step 4: g(9) = 4 - 2 x 9

Step 5: g(9) = 4 - 18

Step 6: g(9) = -14

(Final Step) Step 7: g(6) - g(9) = -8 - (-14) = 6
