You have to find the original price before the markup so
1x + .45x = 125.80
The 1x represents 100% and the .45 represents the 45% markup.
1.45x=125.80
divide both sides by 1.45
x = $86.76

Prove the following by induction. In each case, n is apositive integer.<br> 2^n ≤ 2^n+1 - 2^n-1 -1.
frutty [35]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

We are asked to prove by the method of mathematical induction that:

2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1

where n is a positive integer.

  • Let us take n=1

then we have:

2^1\leq 2^{1+1}-2^{1-1}-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2^2-2^{0}-1\\\\i.e.\\2\leq 4-1-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 4-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2

Hence, the result is true for n=1.

  • Let us assume that the result is true for n=k

i.e.

2^k\leq 2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1

  • Now, we have to prove the result for n=k+1

i.e.

<u>To prove:</u>  2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1

Let us take n=k+1

Hence, we have:

2^{k+1}=2^k\cdot 2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2\cdot (2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1)

( Since, the result was true for n=k )

Hence, we have:

2^{k+1}\leq 2^{k+1}\cdot 2-2^{k-1}\cdot 2-2\cdot 1\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{k-1+1}-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-2

Also, we know that:

-2

(

Since, for n=k+1 being a positive integer we have:

2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}>0  )

Hence, we have finally,

2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1

Hence, the result holds true for n=k+1

Hence, we may infer that the result is true for all n belonging to positive integer.

i.e.

2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1  where n is a positive integer.

How many mL of medication are needed to last 10 days if the dose of medication is 2.5 tsp TID (three times a day)?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

369.7 mL of medication

Step-by-step explanation:

How many mL of medication are needed to last 10 days if the dose of medication is 2.5 tsp TID (three times a day)?

From the above question,

The dosage of the medication =

2.5 tsp 3 times a day

= 2.5 × 3 = 7.5 tsp per day.

Since

1 day = 7.5 tsp

10 days = x tsp

Cross Multiply

x = 10 × 7.5 tsp

x = 75 tsp of medication for 10 days.

Step 2

It is important to note that:

1 tsp = 4.929 mL

75 tsp = x mL

Cross Multiply

x = 75 × 4.929 mL

x = 369.669 mL of medication

Approximately = 369.7 mL of medication

Which constant could each equation be multiplied by to eliminate the x variable in this system of equations? 4x + 5y = 62 5x − 3
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Multiply equation 4x+5y=62 by 5 and 5x-3y=22 by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equations are 4x+5y=62,5x-3y=22

To find: constant by which each equation should be multiplied to eliminate the variable x in the given system of equations

Solution:

4x+5y=62...(i)\\5x-3y=22...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 5 and (ii) by 4 to get the following equations:

20x+25y=310\\20x-12y=88

On subtracting these equations, we get

(20x+25y)-(20x-12y)=310-88\\\\13y=222

So, the variable x gets eliminated

Part of the graph of the function f(x) = (x – 1)(x + 7) is shown below.Which statements about the function are true? Select thre
sertanlavr [38]

The statements about the function that are true are

  • The vertex of the function is at (–3,–16).
  • The graph is increasing on the interval x > –3.
  • The graph is positive only on the intervals where x < –7 and where x > 1.

<h3>How to interpret the graph?</h3>

The equation of the graph is given as

f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 7)

The graph of the function is added as an attachment

On the graph, we have

Vertex = (-3, -16)

This is so because the graph has a minimum point of (-3, -16)

Also, the graph crosses the x-axis at x = 1 and x = -7

This means that the graph is positive at x >1 and x >-7

Because the vertex is a minimum, the graph is increasing at the left of its symmetry i.e. x > -3
