Answer:

12705

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem could be solved in two different methods:

1:

231×(55)=12705

2.

231×40+231×15=9240+3465=12705

Step-by-step explanation:

So generally whenever you have a problem like this, you want to factor out the denominator and numerator, that way when dividing, you can easily see what the domain is by looking at factors.

So let's start by factoring the numerator and denominator of f(x)

[tex]f(x) = \frac{3x-6}{2x+10}\implies \frac{3(x-2)}{2(x+5)}[/tex]

Now let's do this with the g(x)

[tex]g(x) = \frac{-2x+8}{x+2}\implies\frac{-2(x-4)}{x+2}[/tex]

Now when you divide f(x) by g(x), you keep f(x), change division to multiplication, and flip the g(x) so it's the reciprocal. This gives you the expression

[tex]\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{3(x-2)}{2(x+5)}*\frac{x+2}{-2(x-4)}[/tex]

Now just multiply the numerator and denominator

[tex]\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{3(x-2)(x+2)}{2(x+5)*-2(x-4)}[/tex]

So the main point of factoring was to easily see when the denominator is  zero, (since if one of the factors is zero, the entire thing will be zero, since zero * anything = zero), but it was also to find any removable discontinuities. Which are just when you have factor in the denominator and numerator, so you can simplify the fraction further by canceling it out. To give an example: [tex]f(x)=\frac{(x-2)(x+4)}{(x-2)(x+3)}\implies\frac{x+4}{x+3}[/tex]. But the domain of f(x) is still restricted so that: [tex]x\ne 2, -3[/tex]. But there will not be a vertical asymptote at x=2 like with traditional domain restrictions in a rational function. This is because you can technically define f(2), but only if you use the most simplified form. This will result in a hole being at that point to signify that it's a removable discontinuity.

Anyways a bit off topic, but something that may be necessary in other examples. Anyways, now to find the domain, we just need to find when f(x)/g(x) is not defined. Or more specifically we find when the denominator is going to be zero. So we just need to set both factors equal to zero.

[tex]0 = 2(x+5)\\\text{divide both sides by 2 (a bit redundant)}\\0 = x+5\\\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\-5 = x[/tex]

[tex]0 = -2(x-4)\\\text{divide both sides by -2 (a bit redundant)}\\0 = x-4\\\text{add 4 to both sides}\\x=4[/tex]

So the domain restrictions would be: [tex]x\ne-5, 4[/tex]

This can be expressed in interval notation: [tex](-\infty, -5) \cup (-5, 4) \cup (4, \infty)[/tex].

You can also express this in terms of set builder notation: [tex]D: \{x|x\ne-5, x\ne4\}[/tex]

The unknown number of the given expression is 8

Let the unknown number be x such that three times the sum of some number plus 3 is equal to 7 times the number minus 23 is expressed as;

3(x + 3) = 7x - 23

Expand

3x + 9= 7x - 23

Collect the like terms

3x-7x = -23 - 9

Solving a system of equations we will see that they sold 80 adult tickets.

To solve this, we need to solve a system of equations. To define said systems of equations, we first need to define the variables, we will use:

They sold 20 more adult tickets than student tickets, then:

x = y + 20

And they collected a total of $880, then:

x*$8 + y*$4 = $880

The the system of equations is:

x = y + 20

x*$8 + y*$4 = $880

Isolating y on the first equation we get:

y = x - 20

Replacing that on the other equation we get:

x*$8 + (x - 20)*$4 = $880

Now let's solve that for x.

x*$12 - $80 = $880

x*$12 = $880 + $80 = $960

x = $960/$12 = 80

hi,

a point is given  ( x; y)

standar line equation is  :  y = ax+b

So  with  (3;5)  and  (8;15)  we have  :  

   3a+b = 5

   8a+b = 15

so :

8a +b -3a -b = 10

8a-3a = 10

5a = 10

   a = 10/5

Answer: (-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left(\frac{-2+0}{2}, \frac{-1+9}{2} \right)=\boxed{(-1, 4)}[/tex]

(-1, 4) is the midpoint of the segment with endpoints at (-2,-1) and (0, 9). This can be obtained by using the formula for finding the midpoint of a line segment.

When the end points of a line segment are known, the mid point of the line segment is calculated using the midpoint formula,

Midpoint formula,

                   [tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2})[/tex]

(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the endpoints of the line segment.

⇒ This means that, the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is [tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2})[/tex].

From the question it is given that,

are the endpoints of the line segment.

By using the Midpoint formula we get,

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2})[/tex] = [tex](\frac{-2+0 }{2},\frac{-1+9}{2})[/tex]

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2})[/tex] = [tex](-1, 4)[/tex]

Hence (-1, 4) is the midpoint of the segment with endpoints at (-2,-1) and  (0, 9).

The monthly payments for each add-on interest loan will be $29.71.

Given Information and Formula Used

Principal Amount, P = $1150

Rate of Interest, R = 6%

Duration of loan in years, T = 4

The formula for simple interest is given as,

I = (P × R × T)/100

Calculating the Add-On Interest For Each Month

Interest, I = (P × R × T)/100

Substituting the values of P, R, and T in the above formula, we get,

I = $ (1150 × 6 × 4)/100

I = $ 27600/100

I = $276

Calculating the Total Monthly Payment With Interest

Amount of add-on interest loan, A = P + I

A = $1150 + $276

A = $1,426

Monthly payment with interest = A/(4×12)

= $ 1426/48

Carter wins $3000 and Isabella wins $3000.

If they join with Carla, the revenue increases by $2400, so now the total revenue is:

The parameters are:

For this problem, the mean is given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 13[/tex]

The probability of having exactly 10 days of precipitation in the month of April is P(X = 10), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = \frac{e^{-13}13^{10}}{(10)!} = 0.0859[/tex]

There is a 0.0859 = 8.59% probability of having exactly 10 days of precipitation in the month of April.

The probability of having less than three days of precipitation in the month of April is:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

In which:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-13}13^{0}}{(0)!} \ approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-13}13^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00003[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-13}13^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.00019[/tex]

Then:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0 + 0.00003 + 0.00019 = 0.00022

There is a 0.00022 = 0.022% probability of having less than three days of precipitation in the month of April.

For more than 15 days, the probability is:

P(X > 15) = P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + ... + P(X = 20)

Applying the formula for each of these values and adding them, we have that P(X > 15) = 0.2364, hence:

Answer: [tex]g(x) \ge f(x)[/tex] for all x such that [tex]x\le-2[/tex] or [tex]x\ge0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is essentially asking at what x values would the graph of g(x) be greater than (higher than) or equal to f(x).

In the graph, we can see that g(x) is greater than (or higher than) f(x) at all x's before (to the left of) point E and after (to the right of) point A. An easy way to find the points E and A is by setting f(x) = g(x).

[tex]f(x)=g(x)\\1-x^2=2x+1\\1=x^2+2x+1\\0=x^2+2x\\0=x(x+2)\\x=0\hspace{0.1cm}or\hspace{0.1cm}x=-2[/tex]

Since any value with x=-2 is left of the y-axis, we know that point E would have its x-coordinate as -2. Similarly, any point on the y-axis would have x=0; therefore, we can tell that point A would have its x-coordinate at 0.

If we remember that g(x) is greater than f(x) to the left of E and to the right of A, we can say that

[tex]g(x) \ge f(x)[/tex] for all x such that [tex]x\le-2[/tex] or [tex]x\ge0[/tex]
