Graph this function: y= -5/3x+6

Answers

Answer:

(0,6) and (3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is already in slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

Since the y-intercept is '6', the first point would be (0, 6).

-----------------------------------

We can move three units to the right and 5 units down to get our second point, (3,1).

Note that slope is rise over run.

(0 + 3, 6 - 5) - > (3, 1).

The points would be (0,6) and (3,1). After plotting, you would draw a continuous line through them.

Hope this helps.

For what value of b will f(x) = x^2 + bx + 400 have -20 as its only zero? Record your answer and fill in the bubbles on your answer document.​

Answers

The polynomials f(x) = x^2 + bx + 400 have -20 as its only zero then the value of b is 40.

The polynomials f(x) = x^2 + bx + 400 have -20 as its only zero

Then x=-20

What is the zero of a polynomial?

The zeros of a polynomial p(x) are all the x-values that make the polynomial equal to zero.

x=-20 is the zero of the given polynomial

Therefore it satisfies the given polynomial

[tex]f(-20)=(-20)^2+b(-20)+400[/tex]

[tex]0=400-20b+400\\800-20b=0\\-20b=-800\\b=\frac{-800}{-20} \\b=40[/tex]

Therefore the value of b is 40.

Sales tax is 6% using only one term write an expression to represent the discounted price of the phone including tax.

Answers

The price of phone is stated, taking the price of the phone as p and the discount on sale as 20%

Answer:

0.848p

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of phone = p

Sales tax = 6%

Discount on sale = 20%

With a 20% discount, the discounted price of the phone will be :

100%p - 20%p = 80%p = 0.8p

The sales tax will increase the price thus ;

0.8p + 6% of 0.8p

0.8p + 0.06 * 0.8p

0.8p + 0.048p

The cost of the phone including tax becomes ; (0.8p + 0.048p) = 0.848p

A man invests $ 16800 in savings plan that pays simple interest at a rate of 5% per annum. Find the Tim’s taken for his investment to grow to $18900

Answers

Answer:

2.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The given amount invested, which is the principal, P = $16,800

The simple interest rate, R = 5% per annum

The intended total value of the investment, A = $18,900

The simple interest on the principal, I = A - P

∴ I = $18,900 - $16,800 = $2,100

The formula for the simple interest, I, is given as follows;

[tex]I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}[/tex]

Therefore, we have;

[tex]T = \dfrac{I \times 100}{P \times R}[/tex]

Plugging in the values, gives;

[tex]T = \dfrac{2,100 \times 100}{16,800 \times 5} =2.5[/tex]

The time it will take the investment to grow to $18,900 is T = 2.5 years

iii)x=3/5,y=-6/9,z=2/10(

iv)x=; - 3/5, y = - 7/10, z = - 8/15 To Verify x+(y+z)=(x+y)+z (i)x=3/4,y=5/6,z=-7/8 LHS = 3/4 + (5/6 + (-7/8)) = (3/4) + (5/6 -7/8)= (3/4) + ((20-21)/24) = 3/4 - 1/24 =(18-1)/24 = 17/24

RHS = (3/4 + 5/6) + (-7/8)= (9 + 10)/12 - 7/8 = 19/12-7/8 = (38-21)/24 = 17/24

LHS = RHS = 17/24 (ii) * x = 2/3, y = - 5/6, z = - 7/9 LHS = 2/3 + (-5/6+ (-7/9) = 2/3 + (-5/6 - 7/9) = 2/3 + (-29/18) = 2/3 - 29/18

= 12/18 - 29/18 = -17/18

RHS = (2/3 + (-5/6))+(-7/9) = (2/3 - 5/6) - 7/9 = (-1/6) - 7/9 = -1/6 - 7/9 = -3/18 - 14/18 =

Andre found an old mustang car that can fix.he bought the car of 65⁰/0 of the original $7200 price.what did andrew pay for the car?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking of this in terms of words, we are looking to solve the equation:

"The price Andre paid for the car is 65% of the original $7200 price" which in algebra-speak is

p = .65(7200) where p is the price Andre paid (our unknown), the word "is" indicates an equals sign, .65 is 65% as a decimal, the word "of" indicates multiplication, and the original price is...well, the original price.

Solving for p:

If f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = x2 + 5,
what is g(f(2))?

Answers

Answer:

30 if that is an [tex]x^{2}[/tex] in g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) = 2x + 1

      = 2(2) + 1

      = 4 + 1

f(2) = 5      

g(5) = [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 5

      = [tex]5^{2}[/tex] + 5

      = 25 + 5

g(5) = 30

Answer: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

First find f(2)

f(2) = 2(2) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

Therefore g(f(2)) = g(5)

Now solve for g(5)

g(5) = (5)² + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30
