Answer:

The domain is (-∞ , ∞)

The domain is continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to identify the domain of the linear function

The domain in this case can be represented by the set of all real numbers.

When we talk of the domain of a function, we are simply referring to the the range of values between the smallest value on the x-axis and the largest number on the x-axis

Hence, mathematically, we are simply considering the smallest value of b up to the largest value of b in this case. Where b simply represents the number of books

Thus, the domain here will be (-∞ , ∞)

On if the domain is discrete or continuous, we can see that the domain is continuous.

The domain is continuous simply because, the domain we have contains all the values and not some in the set of real numbers. If it had contain only some, then it would have been discrete. But since it contains all, it is continuous

The answer would be $1.75 (Rounded off to the nearest cent).

Substitute the given cost of each pint of fruit to the equation. Transpose and simplify, to get the price of a pint of veggies.
Given: <span>5v + 7f = 28.70; f = $2.85
Solution: </span><span>5v + 7(2.85) = 28.70
                </span><span>5v + 19.95 = 28.70
                5v = 8.75
                  v = 1.75</span>

The sales manager of a company awarded a total of \$3000$3000 in bonuses to the most productive salespeople. The bonuses were aw
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

one possible number of bonus is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number of $250 bonus = x and number of $750 bonus = y.

We have that bonuses are given in amounts $250 and $750.

Since, the total bonus is $3000.

So, we get,

250x + 750y = 3000.

As, there is atleast one $250 bonus and atleast one $750 bonus.

Let, the minimum number of bonus of $750 be 1 i.e. y = 1.

Substitute in the equation gives,

250x + 750 × 1 = 3000

i.e. 250x = 3000 - 750

i.e. 250x = 2250

i.e. x = 9

Thus, the maximum number of $250 bonus are 9.

Hence, one possible number of bonus is 9.

During a certain week, a post office sold Rs.280 worth of 14-paisas stamps. How many of these stamps did they sell?
Novosadov [1.4K]
So basically ...

You convert the rupees in paisas. One rupee is equal to one hundred paisas, so ...

280 × 100 = 28,000

And then we divide,

28,000 ÷ 14 = 2000

The post office sold 2000 stamps!

Hope this helped! :)
