Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
f(x) = 8x - 6
f(1/2) is x = 1/2
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: f(1/2) = 8(1/2) - 6
- Multiply: f(1/2) = 4 - 6
- Subtract: f(1/2) = -2
Answer:
Sales tax=31.16, total price=359.16
Step-by-step explanation:
Price x sales tax rate -=sales tax
328 x .095(9.5%)=31.16 sales tax
price + sales tax = total price
328 + 31.16=359.16
Answer:
a=-8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1/2a-5)=3a+1
To find the opposite of 1/2 a−5, find the opposite of each term.
-1/2a-(-5)= -3a+1
The opposite of −5 is 5.
-1/2a+5=-3a+1
add 3a to both sides
-1/2a+5+3a=1
Combine-1/2and 3a to get 5/2a
5/2a+5=1
Subtract 5 from both side
5/2a=1-5
Subtract 5 from 1 to get −4.
5/2a=-4
Multiply both sides by 2/5 =0.4, the reciprocal of 5/2=2.5.
a=-4x(2/5)
express -4x(2/5)=1.6 as single fraction.
a= -4x2/5
Multiply −4 and 2 to get −8.
a=-8/5
Fraction −8/5 ≈−1.6 can be rewritten as −8/5 =−1.6 by extracting the negative sign.
a=-8/5
Answer:
B: y = 2x² - 16x + 40
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find this simply by expanding the given function:
y = 2(x - 4)² + 8
y = 2(x² - 8x + 16) + 8
y = 2x² - 16x + 32 + 8
y = 2x² - 16x + 40
There are 18 in Nevada.
Multiply 55% by 40, and you get the amount for California. (Which is 22.)
Subtract 40 by 22, and you get 18.
Hope this helps!
