Russel wants to buy 3 identical gift cards. He wants to make sure his total cost is no more than $2 above or below $60. Which of the following inequalities represents this situation?
A|3c − 60| ≤ 2
B|60 + 3c| ≤ 2
C |3c − 2| ≤ 60
D |3c + 2| ≤ 60

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

very imprecise phrasing.

I assume this means the cost should not be more than $2 above, and not less than $2 below $60.

the bottom line is : the difference between the price of the 3 gift cards and the planned budget of $60 must not be more than $2 (no matter what's the sign of the difference - hence the usage of absolute values).

the only answer calculating that difference and comparing it to the $2 threshold is A.

remember, a difference is always calculated by a "-" operation.

so, B and D disqualify.

C compares the price of the 3 cards with $2 and compares that result with the limit of $60.

yes, that protects against too expensive cards.

but no, it does NOT protect against to cheap cards. e.g. if the cards (3c) cost only $30, that inequality would still be true (but should not).

so, A is the correct answer.

What is the slope for this table?
Give an explanation.

Answers

Answer:

the shape of the graph is a vertical straight line. So the angle is 90°

So tan 90° = infinite

Answer:  The slope is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is undefined because it is based on the Rise (y) over the Run (x) of the data points.  X is not changing even as y goes from -2 to 8.  If we took the first and last points, (-1,-2) and (-1,8) and go from left to right, y increases by (8-(-2)) = 10 while x is unchanged, or o.  Rise/Run therefore becomes 10/0.  Division by 0 is undefined in math, so the slope is undefined.

This is a straight vertical line going through x = -1.  All y's are on this line.  Undefined slope.

How to find extreme values of a function.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Extreme values of a function are found by taking the first derivative of the function and setting it equal to 0. To determine if it's a minimum or maximum, we set the second derivative equal to 0 and determine if its positive or negative respectively.

Let's do [tex]f(x)=3x^4+2x^3-5x^2+7[/tex] as an example

By using the power rule where [tex]\frac{d}{dx}(x^n)=nx^{n-1}[/tex], then [tex]f'(x)=12x^3+6x^2-10x[/tex]

Now set [tex]f'(x)=0[/tex] and solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]0=12x^3+6x^2-10x[/tex]

[tex]0=2x(6x^2+3x-5)[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{3^2-4(6)(-5)}}{2(6)}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{9+120}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{129}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{3}{12}\pm\frac{\sqrt{129}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{1}{4}\pm\frac{\sqrt{129}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x_1=0,x_2\approx0.6965,x_3=-1.1965[/tex]

By plugging our critical points into [tex]f(x)[/tex], we can see that our extreme values are located at [tex](0,7)[/tex], [tex](0.6965,5.956)[/tex], and [tex](-1.1965,2.565)[/tex].

The second derivative would be [tex]f''(x)=36x^2+12x-10[/tex] and plugging in our critical points will tell us if they are minimums or maximums.

If [tex]f''(x)>0[/tex], it's a minimum, but if [tex]f''(x)<0[/tex], it's a maximum.

Since [tex]f''(0)=-10<0[/tex] then [tex](0,7)[/tex] is a local maximum

Since [tex]f''(0.6965)=15.822>0[/tex], then [tex](0.6965,5.956)[/tex] is a local minimum

Since [tex]f''(-1.1965)=27.18>0[/tex], then [tex](-1.1965,2.565)[/tex] is a global minimum

Therefore, the extreme values of [tex]f(x)=3x^4+2x^3-5x^2+7[/tex] are a global minimum of [tex](-1.1965,2.565)[/tex], a local minimum of [tex](0.6965,5.956)[/tex], and a local maximum of [tex](0,7)[/tex].

Hope this example helped you understand! I've attached a graph to help you visualize the extreme values and where they're located.

you are skateboarding at a pace of 30 meters every 5 seconds. your friend is in-line skating at a pace of 9 meters every 2 seconds. graph each ratio relationship in the coordinate plane

(im in 6th grade)​

Answers

In order to graph the relationship, we will need to write the expression as the equation of a straight line as shown:

d = mt + b

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

m is the speed

If you are skateboarding at a pace of 30 meters every 5 seconds. your friend is in-line skating at a pace of 9 meters every 2 seconds, this can be written as (5, 30) and (2, 9)

Get the slope of the line:

m = (9-30)/(2-5)

m = -21/-3

m = 7

Substitute m = 7 and the coordinate (2, 9) into the equation y = mt + b

9 = 7(2) + b

9 = 14 + b

b = -5

The required equation to plot will be expressed as y = 7t - 5

A house was sold for $64,900. If the selling price represents a 25% profit over the purchase price, how many dollars were in the purchase price of the house?

Answers

48,675£ because you have to times 64,900><0.75= 48,675

If the house is sold with a 25% profit then the purchase price of the house will be equal to $48,675.

What is the Percentage?

The Latin term "per centum," which signifies "by the hundredth," was the source of the English word "percentage." Segments with a denominator of 100 are considered percentages. In other terms, it is a relationship where the worth of the entire is always considered to be 100.

As per the data provided in the question,

The selling price of the house = $64,900

Profit percent = 25%

The profit price of the house after selling,

64900 × 25/100

= $16225

Now,

The purchase price of the house,

$64900 - $16225 = $48675.

Step-by-step explanation:

first, subtract 4 5/6 from 6 2/3 by converting 6 2/3 to 6 4/6

5 3/4 + (6 4/6 - 4 5/6) = 5 3/4 + 1 4/6

5 3/4 equals 5 9/12 and 1 4/6 equals 1 8/12

adding them gives you:

6 17/12 which is the same as 6 + 1 5/12, or 7 5/12

find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,10) and (2,-5)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the most common form of line equation is

y = ax + b

a is the slope of the line. it is expressed as the ratio

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

when going from one point to the other.

b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).

once we have the slope, we get b by using the coordinates of one of the given points as x and y in the equation and since for b.

for the slope a :

x changes by +5 (from -3 to 2)

y changes by -15 (from 10 to -5)

so, the slope is -15/+5 = -3

the equation looks now like

y = -3x + b

let's use the first point

10 = -3×-3 + b = 9 + b

1 = b

so, the equation is

y = -3x + 1
