Answer:
p(x) = 0.85x
t(x) = 1.065x
(t o p)(x) = 0.9x
$2700
Step-by-step explanation:
If the marked price is $x, then the function p(x) that gives the price of the riding lawn mower after 15% discount will be

where x is the marked price.
Now, the function that gives the total cost with sales tax will be given by

where x is the discounted price.
Therefore, the composite function that gives the total cost of the riding lawn mower on sale is given by
(t o p)(x) = 1.065(0.85x) = 0.9x ............ (1)
where x is the marked price.
If the marked price x = $3000, then Mr. Rivera has to pay for the riding lawn mower, from equation (1),
(t o p)(3000) = 0.9 × 3000 = 2700 dollars. (Answer)
Answer:
P(F/C) = 0.75
P(C^F) = 0.09
P(C^F) = P(F^C)
Step-by-step explanation:
P(C^F) = 9% = 0.09
P(C^F) = P(F^C)
P(F/C) = P(F^C)/P(C)
= 0.09/0.12 = 0.75
Answer:
(x, y) = (7, 4) meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the floor without the removal is x^2, so with the smaller square removed, it is x^2 -y^2.
The perimeter of the floor is the sum of all side lengths, so is 4x +2y.
The given dimensions tell us ...
x^2 -y^2 = 33
4x +2y = 36
From the latter equation, we can write an expression for y:
y = 18 -2x
Substituting this into the first equation gives ...
x^2 -(18 -2x)^2 = 33
x^2 -(324 -72x +4x^2) = 33
3x^2 -72x + 357 = 0 . . . . write in standard form
3(x -7)(x -17) = 0 . . . . . factor
Solutions to this equation are x=7 and x=17. However, for y > 0, we must have x < 9.
y = 18 -2(7) = 4
The floor dimension x is 7 meters; the inset dimension y is 4 meters.
So if there are 3 boys to every 4 girls, and there are 42 boys, the answer would be 42 to 56????? I'm not quite sure, and it's probably wrong, but that's how we learned in my school.
The central angle of a hexagon is 60°. Dividing it by two will give us 30°. The side opposite to 30° is 2 inches, multiplied by 2 is 4 inches. Thus, each side of the hexagon is 4 inches. Also, the apothem is 2sqrt(3). The area of the figure is calculated through the equation,
A = 0.5aP
where a is apothem and P is perimeter
Substituting,
A = 0.5(2sqrt3)(4 x 6) = 24sqrt3
The answer is approximately 41.57 in².
