YES
f(x)=0 when x is from (-infinity to 1)
f(x)=0.40x when x is from [1 to 99]
f(x)=0.50x when x is from (99 to +infinity)
Here f(x) is what Joaquin earns which is dependent on the weight (represented by x), thus the amount of money he receives is a function of weight.
6(4.5y - 12) = 9
(4.5y - 12) = 9/6
4.5y - 12 = 1.5
4.5y = 1.5 + 12
4.5y = 13.5
y = 13.5/4.5
y = 3
Answer: p < 24
Step-by-step explanation: I'm assuming you mean solving for P
1. We want to get p alone and the first step would be to subtract 4 from both side which will give us: ⅔p < 16
2. Next step would to be multiplying by 3 from both sides and doing this will cancel out the 3 in the denominator giving you: 2p < 48
3. Now we have to divide both sides by 2 and we are done which gives us:
<u>p < 24</u>
<u></u>
Don't forget if we were to be dividing by a negative the sign would flip
(for example: -2p < 6 = p > 3) this isn't used in this problem but just a reminder if you see this in future problems
