Answer: a discount of 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

if you take any number and take 10 percent off then 15 percent off it’s even but 25 percent off is a better discount because it takes more money off the original price

Arrange these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change in the specified interval.

Romashka [77]

By definition, the average change of rate is given by:
$AVR = \frac{f(x2)-f(x1)}{x2-x1}$
We will calculate AVR for each of the functions.
We have then:

f(x) = x^2 + 3x interval: [-2, 3]:
$f(-2) = x^2 + 3x = (-2)^2 + 3(-2) = 4 - 6 = -2

f(3) = x^2 + 3x = (3)^2 + 3(3) = 9 + 9 = 18$
$AVR = \frac{-2-18}{-2-3}$
$AVR = \frac{-20}{-5}$
$AVR = 4$

f(x) = 3x - 8 interval: [4, 5]:
$f(4) = 3(4) - 8 = 12 - 8 = 4 f(5) = 3(5) - 8 = 15 - 8 = 7$
$AVR = \frac{7-4}{5-4}$
$AVR = \frac{3}{1}$
$AVR = 3$

f(x) = x^2 - 2x interval: [-3, 4]
$f(-3) = (-3)^2 - 2(-3) = 9 + 6 = 15

f(4) = (4)^2 - 2(4) = 16 - 8 = 8$
$AVR = \frac{8-15}{4+3}$
$AVR = \frac{-7}{7}$
$AVR = -1$

f(x) = x^2 - 5 interval: [-1, 1]
$f(-1) = (-1)^2 - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4

f(1) = (1)^2 - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4$
$AVR = \frac{-4+4}{1+1}$
$AVR = \frac{0}{2}$
$AVR = 0$

Answer:
these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change are:
f(x) = x^2 + 3x
f(x) = 3x - 8
f(x) = x^2 - 5
f(x) = x^2 - 2x

Suppose the average commute time of your employees is unknown. The standard deviation of their commute time is estimated as 22.8

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

96 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the standard deviation = 22.8

The width in the question = 12

We solve for the margin of error E.

E = width / 2

= 12/2 = 6

At 99%

Alpha = 1-0.99

= 0.01

Alpha/2 = 0.01/2 = 0.005

Z0.005 = 2.576

Sample size n

= ((2.576x22.8)/2)²

= 95.8

= 96

The number of employees is 96

Thank you!

Brian bought a 15 pound bag of comcrete. he split the bag into smaller bags that each hold two and a half pounds. how many small

Westkost [7]

Okay. You have 15 lbs of concrete, and x bags that can individually hold 2.5 lbs. What you need to do is divide 15 by 2.5, and the quotient will be 6.
Problem: 15 ÷ 2.5 = 6
So the answer to your problem will be: 6 bags.

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 45% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 95% pure anti

Lesechka [4]

Let x = amount of 45% antifreezeLet y = amount of 70% antifreeze EQUATION 1: x + y = 150 (total of 150 gallons mixed) EQUATION 2: .45x + .75y = .55(x + y) Simplify and solve the system of equations Multiply second equation by 100 on both sides to remove the decimals 45x + 75y = 55(x + y) Combine like terms 45x + 75y = 55x + 55y 45x - 55x + 75y - 55y = 0 -10x + 20y = 0 Now we have the following system of equations: x + y = 150 -10x + 20y = 0 Multiply the first equation by -10 to get opposite coefficients for x; add the equations to eliminate x 10x + 10y = 1500 -10x + 20y = 0 ------------------------------ 30y = 1500 Solve for y 30y = 1500 y = 50 Since the total mixed gallons is 150, x = 150 - 50 = 100 So we need 100 gallons of the 45% antifreeze and 50 gallons of the 70% antifreeze
