The manager of a mail order business will ship the packages to their customers. The cost, in dollars, to mail a package is based
Nadya [2.5K]
To determine the cost of the mail, we simply substitute the mass of the package to the given function. Mathematical functions are used to relate two variables, observing how changing one variable affects the other variable. For this case, the cost of a mail and the weight of the package are related by the function <span>y = 0.7x2 –2.5x + 3 where x represents the mass in units of pounds (lb) and y is the cost in units of dollars ($). We calculate cost as follows:

</span><span>y = 0.7x^2 –2.5x + 3
</span><span>y = 0.7(5)^2 –2.5(5)+ 3
y = 8 dollars

Therefore, the cost of mailing a 5 lb package would be 8 dollars.

Jack and Andrea want to create a right triangle together using values of x and y and the polynomial identity to generate Pythago
leva [86]

A right triangle can be considered as a special type because the relationship of its sides can be described using the hypotenuse formula:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

or

c^2 = x^2 + y^2

where,

c is the hypotenuse of the triangle and is the side opposite to the 90° angle

while a and b are the sides adjacent to the 90° angle

 

In the problem statement, we are given that one of the side has a measure of 2 = x, while the hypotenuse is 5 = c, therefore calculating for y:

y^2 = c^2 – x^2

y^2 = 5^2 – 2^2

y^2 = 21

y = 4.58

 

The natural number is the number before the decimal. Therefore the answer is:

y = 4

What fraction is greater 1/4 or 3/8
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

1/4 < 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get a common denominator to compare.  We will use a common denominator of 8

1/4 *2/2    or 3/8

2/8 or 3/8

since the denominators are the same

2<3

so 1/4 < 3/8
