"The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x"
means that if the monthly income of John is $ 5,000 ,he can spend at most
f(5,000)=15,000+1.5*5,000=15,000+ 7,500=22, 500 (dollars)
Or for example
if Johns monthly income is $8,000, then he can spend at most
f(8,000)=15,000+1.5*8,000=15,000+ 12,000=27,000 (dollars)
2.
Now, assume that the maximum amount that John can spend is y.
Then, y=15,000+1.5x
we can express x, the monthly income, in terms of y by isolating x:
y=15,000+1.5x
1.5x = y-15,000
X=y-15,000/1.5
thus, in functional notation, x, the monthly income, is a function , say g, of variable y, the max amount:
X=g(y) y-15000/1.5
since we generally use the letter x for the variable of a function, we write g again as:
G (x) x-15000/1.5
tells us that if the maximum amount that John can spend is 50,000 $, then his monthly income is 23,333 $.
3.
If John's limit is $60,000, his monthly income is
G(600,000)=60,000-15,000/ 1.5=45,000/1.5 =30,000
dollars.
Answer: $ 30,000
Remark: g is called the inverse function of f, since it undoes what f does.
instead of g(x), we could use the notation
Irrational would be the correct answer
Answer:
F(8)=120
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=15x
f(8)=15(8)
f(8)=120
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this question using proportion
Perimeter of the square/Time is takes to unlock
We are told in the question that:
The cellphone unlocks when the perimeter reaches 32 centimeters, taking a total of 2.5 seconds.
Hence, the perimeter of the square after 1.5 seconds is:.x = unknown
32/2.5 = x/1.5
Cross Multiply
2.5x = 32 × 1.5
x = 32 × 1.5/2.5
x = 19.2 centimeters
