<span>There are several ways to do this problem. One of them is to realize that there's only 14 possible calendars for any year (a year may start on any of 7 days, and a year may be either a leap year, or a non-leap year. So 7*2 = 14 possible calendars for any year). And since there's only 14 different possibilities, it's quite easy to perform an exhaustive search to prove that any year has between 1 and 3 Friday the 13ths. Let's first deal with non-leap years. Initially, I'll determine what day of the week the 13th falls for each month for a year that starts on Sunday. Jan - Friday Feb - Monday Mar - Monday Apr - Thursday May - Saturday Jun - Tuesday Jul - Thursday Aug - Sunday Sep - Wednesday Oct - Friday Nov - Monday Dec - Wednesday Now let's count how many times for each weekday, the 13th falls there. Sunday - 1 Monday - 3 Tuesday - 1 Wednesday - 2 Thursday - 2 Friday - 2 Saturday - 1 The key thing to notice is that there is that the number of times the 13th falls upon a weekday is always in the range of 1 to 3 days. And if the non-leap year were to start on any other day of the week, the numbers would simply rotate to the next days. The above list is generated for a year where January 1st falls on a Sunday. If instead it were to fall on a Monday, then the value above for Sunday would be the value for Monday. The value above for Monday would be the value for Tuesday, etc. So we've handled all possible non-leap years. Let's do that again for a leap year starting on a Sunday. We get: Jan - Friday Feb - Monday Mar - Tuesday Apr - Friday May - Sunday Jun - Wednesday Jul - Friday Aug - Monday Sep - Thursday Oct - Saturday Nov - Tuesday Dec - Thursday And the weekday totals are: Sunday - 1 Monday - 2 Tuesday - 2 Wednesday - 1 Thursday - 2 Friday - 3 Saturday - 1 And once again, for every weekday, the total is between 1 and 3. And the same argument applies for every leap year. And since we've covered both leap and non-leap years. Then we've demonstrated that for every possible year, Friday the 13th will happen at least once, and no more than 3 times.</span>

During a clothing store's Bargin Days, the regular price for T-shirts is discounted to $8.25. You have an additional coupon for
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

p(t) = 8.25t - 5

b) The cost of 11 T-shirts during bargain days is $85.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Discounted cost of one T-shirt = $8.25

Additional off on coupon = $5.00

Let t be the number of T-shirts bought during the bargain days.

a) Then, the price of t T-shirts with the discount applied will be given by the function:

p(t) = \text{Number of T-shirts}\times \text{Discounted price for 1 T-shirt} - \text{Coupon Off}\\p(t) = 8.25t - 5

b) Price during Bargain Days for 11 shirts

We put t = 11 in the above function:

p(t) = 8.25t - 5\\p(11) = 8.25(11) - 5 = 85.75

Thus, the cost of 11 T-shirts during bargain days is $85.75

Let f(x)= x(2x-3)/(x+2)x. Find the domain, vertical and horizontal asymptote
Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain of a rational function is everywhere except where we set vertical asymptotes. or removable discontinues

Here, we have

\frac{x(2x - 3)}{(x + 2)x}

First, notice we have x in both the numerator and denomiator so we have a removable discounties at x.

Since, we don't want x to be 0,

We have a removable discontinuity at x=0

Now, we have

\frac{2x - 3}{x + 2}

We don't want the denomiator be zero because we can't divide by zero.

so

x + 2 = 0

x =  - 2

So our domain is

All Real Numbers except-2 and 0.

The vertical asymptors is x=-2.

To find the horinzontal asymptote, notice how the numerator and denomator have the same degree. So this mean we will have a horinzontal asymptoe of

The leading coeffixent of the numerator/ the leading coefficent of the denomiator.

So that becomes

\frac{2}{1}  = 2

So we have a horinzontal asymptofe of 2
