Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

The farmer sells his corn for $230 a metric ton

small surcharge = $25.

let the amount per metric ton be x

and let the total cost per x metric ton be y

the total cost function is

y=230x+25--------------1

The neighbor sells her corn for $230 a metric ton

he gives $15 rebate------<em>A rebate is a partial refund of the cost of an item</em>

let the amount per metric ton be x

and let the total cost per x metric ton be y

the total cost function is

y=230x-15----------------2

Step two:

Equating the two equation above

230x+25=230x-15

230x-230x=25+15

0=40

The result shows that based on the cost function of both farmer, there will never be an amount of corn that would make them have the same cost

Assume that f is a one-to-one function.
Pavlova-9 [17]

It is given in the question that f is a one-to-one function.

And for a one-to - one function,

If

f(a)=b, \ then \ f^{-1} (b) =a

So we will get

a. If \ f(3)=15, \ then \ f^{-1} (15) =3&#10;\\&#10;b. If \  f^{-1}(6)=4, \ then \ f(4)=6

Answer:

  4x^2 +12x +44 remainder 161x +84

Step-by-step explanation:

At each step, the quotient term is the ratio of the leading dividend term to the leading divisor term. The first quotient term, for example, is ...

  (4x^4)/(x^2) = 4x^2

The quotient term found this way is multiplied by the divisor and subtracted from the dividend. The difference is the new dividend and the process repeats.

You're done when the degree of the dividend is less than the degree of the divisor. This remainder can be expressed as a fraction with the divisor as the denominator.

  \dfrac{4x^4+5x-4}{x^2-3x-2}=4x^2+12x+44+\dfrac{161x+84}{x^2-3x-2}
