A rectangular bird feeder costs $18.00. A cylindrical bird feeder costs $24.00. The expected cost to keep the rectangular bird f

eeder filled is $3.00 per week. The expected cost the keep the cylindrical bird feeder filled is $2.00 per week. The equation below models the break-even point.
18 + 3x = 24 + 2x

What does x represent?

Answer:

(x) represents number of weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the birds feed is given for x weeks.

Then (cost of bird feeder + cost of bird feeder to be filled ) are same in each case, either bird feeder is cylindrical or rectangular.

So (cost of rectangular bird feeder + bird feed for x weeks)

= cost of cylindrical bird feeder + bird feed for x weeks)

Equation will be

18 + 3x = 24 + 2x

Therefore,(x) represents number of weeks.

X represents the number of weeks, so $3 per week and $2 per week. Hope this helps!

Solve: 3.6 (5x4) divided 3+5.0=

zavuch27 [327]

The value of the expression will be 9.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Given expression is : $\frac{3.6(5*4)}{3+5.0}$

First we will simplify both numerator and denominator separately using <u>order of operations</u>. So....

$3.6(5*4)=3.6(20)=72\\\\ and\\\\ 3+5.0=8$

Thus the expression....

$\frac{3.6(5*4)}{3+5.0}=\frac{72}{8}=9$

For the data that are shown on the graph below, which best describes within which range of x-values extrapolation occurs? On a g

aalyn [17]

Given:

On a graph, points are at (0, 15), (1, 17), (3, 18), (4, 20) and (6, 22).

To find:

The range of x-values extrapolation occurs.

Solution:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

From the graph or given points it is clear that the x-values are 0, 1, 3, 4, 6.

It means the x-values are from 0 to 6.

So, the range of the x-values is $x\geq 0$ or $x\leq 6$ .

The required compound inequality for the range of x-values is $0\leq x\leq 6$ .

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Which of the following graphs could be the graph of the function f(x) = x4 + x3 – x2 – x?

Sav [38]

For this case we have the following function:
$x ^ 4 + x ^ 3 - x ^ 2 - x
$
We can rewrite the function to identify the zeros of it.
When rewriting the function factoring we have: $x (x-1) (x + 1) ^ 2
$
Therefore, the zeros of the function are:
$x = 0

x = 1

x = -1$
Thus, the graph that contains intersections on the x axis in the points mentioned, will be the graph of the function.
Answer:
See attached image.

Fiesta28 [93]

Question:

Point T, the midpoint of segment RS, can be found using the formulas x = (1/2) (6 – 2) + 2 and y = (1/2) (4 – 6) + 6. What are the coordinates of point T?

Answer:

$T(4,5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x = \frac{1}{2}(6 - 2) + 2$

$y = \frac{1}{2}(4 - 6) + 6$

Required

Determine the coordinates of T

The coordinates of T can be represented as $T(x,y)$

To do this, we simply solve for x and y

$x = \frac{1}{2}(6 - 2) + 2$

Solve 6 - 2

$x = \frac{1}{2}*4 + 2$

Solve 1/2 * 4

$x = 2 + 2$

$x = 4$

$y = \frac{1}{2}(4 - 6) + 6$

Solve 4 - 6

$y = \frac{1}{2}*-2 + 6$

Solve 1/2 * -2

$y = -1 + 6$

$y = 5$

Hence, the coordinates of T(x,y) is:

$T(x,y) = T(4,5)$
