Devin wants to use his 12% employee discount to buy a video game that is priced at $57.80. A 8.75% sales tax is applied to the d

iscounted price. What will be the total cost of the video game, including the sales tax?

First you need to find the price of the video game after Devin’s employee discount. To do this you multiply the original price times the discount:

$57.80 * 0.12 = $6.94

Now subtract the discount from the original price:

$57.80 - $6.94 = $50.86

Now we need to multiply the discounted price and the sales gas rate to see how much taxes will be added to our purchase:

$50.86 * 0.0875 = $4.45

Finally we add our discounted price plus the sales tax to find the total cost of the video game after the employee discount:

$50.86 + $4.45 = $55.31

Helppp!! I NEED HELP PLEASE

Given:

The table of values for the function f(x).

To find:

The values $f^{-1}(f(3.14))$ and $f(f(-7))$ .

Solution:

From the given table, it is clear that the function f(x) is defined as:

$f(x)=\{(-14,11),(-7,-12),(-12,-5),(9,1),(10,-2),(-2,13)\}$

We know that if (a,b) is in the function f(x), then (b,a) must be in the function $f^{-1}(x)$ . So, the inverse function is defined as:

$f^{-1}(x)=\{(11,-14),(-12,-7),(-5,-12),(1,9),(-2,10),(13,-2)\}$

And,

$f^{-1}(f(a))=f^{1}(b)$

$f^{-1}(f(a))=a$ ...(i)

Using (i), we get

$f^{-1}(f(3.14))=3.14$

Now,

$f(f(-7))=f(-12)$

$f(f(-7))=5$

Therefore, the required values are $f^{-1}(f(3.14))=3.14$ and $f(f(-7))=5$ .

Please help guys need help

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

A) slope = 20.

B) The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.

Excellent. We are provided with two points: (1, 60) and (3, 100). Let’s enter this into our formula.

Slope = (100 - 60) / (3 - 1) = 40 / 2 = 20.

Now, to determine what the slope means, we can look at the axis titles on the graph. The x axis title is hours, or time in hours. The y axis title is price of the service call in dollars. Therefore, the slope is price (in dollars) per time (in hours).

This can be restated as: The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)

Hope this helps!

3. 'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made

Julli [10]

Given:

'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made by a straight-line with the co- ordinate axes.

3a = b and the line pass through the point (1, 3).

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

The intercept form of a line is

$\dfrac{x}{a}+\dfrac{y}{b}=1$ ...(i)

where, a is x-intercept and b is y-intercept.

We have, 3a=b.

$\dfrac{x}{a}+\dfrac{y}{3a}=1$ ...(ii)

The line pass through the point (1, 3). So, putting x=1 and y=3, we get

$\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{3}{3a}=1$

$\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{a}=1$

$\dfrac{2}{a}=1$

Multiply both sides by a.

$2=a$

The value of a is 2. So, x-intercept is 2.

Putting a=2 in $b=3a$ , we get

$b=3(2)$

$b=6$

The value of b is 6. So, y-intercept is 6.

Putting a=2 and b=6 in (i), we get

$\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{y}{6}=1$

Therefore, the equation of the required line in intercept form is $\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{y}{6}=1$ .

Find the inverse of the function y = x2 – 12

vivado [14]

Answer: $y=\sqrt{x+12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope you mean y = x² - 12 and not y = 2x - 12.

You switch the y and x variables:

x = y² - 12

And solve for y:

x + 12 = y²

$y=\sqrt{x+12}$
