Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace y with 3/2 and solve for x

2x + 9/2 = 13  Subtract 9/2 from both sides

2x = [tex]\frac{13}{1}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

2x = [tex]\frac{26}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

14. Julie Bookwalter is single,

Answers

11. The amount he pays in annual state income tax is $1,497.

13. The amount that will be paid for tax will be $2000.

14. The amount he pays in annual state income tax is $707.50.

How to estimate the annual state income tax?

11. Given;

Annual earnings = $57,900

State tax rate = 3%

Amount earned in exemption = $8,000

Taxable Income = Annual Income - Exemptions

Igor's taxable income = $57,900 - $8,000 = $49,900

Taxable Income × Tax rate = Amount paid as tax

The amount he pays is therefore; $49,900 × 3% = $1,497

13. The amount that will be paid as tax will be:

= 4.6% × $43500

= $2000

Therefore, the amount is $2000.

12. a) We can see that the exemptions for a married person are $4000 and $2000 per dependent. Since there are 2 dependents, therefore:

Amount for exemptions = $4000 + (2 dependents × $2000 per dependent)

Amount for exemptions = $4000 + $4000 = $8000

Amount for exemptions = $8000

b) Taxable wages = Annual gross pay - Exemptions

Taxable wages = $63840 - $8000 = $55840

Annual state income taxes = Taxable wages × State tax rate

Annual state income taxes = $55840 × 4% = $2233.6

14. The amount he pays in annual state income tax is $707.50.

SOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: Define what happens when a function is shrunk vertically

When the factor is greater than 1, the condition that satisfies the function is to multiply by 1.4

When the graph is verticcally shrunk, this means that the function is multiplied by 1.4

Hence, the function becomes:

[tex]1.4\times f(x)=1.4\cdot f(x)[/tex]

STEP 2: Define what happens when the graph is shifted left by 3 units.

If the function is shifted left by 3 units, this implies that we add 3 units to the x of the function.

This gives:

-The polynomial function p(x) = x² + 4x³ - 7x² - 22x + 24 has known factors of (x + 4) and (x - 1).

a. Rewrite p(x) as the product of linear factors.

b. Draw a rough sketch of the graph of the function.

Answers

Answer:

p(x) = (x +4)(x +3)(x -1)(x -2)see the first attachment for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given p(x) = x⁴ + 4x³ - 7x² - 22x + 24 with known factors (x +4) and (x -1), you want the function written as a product of linear factors, and a sketch of the graph.

A graphing calculator can help with both parts of this. It can show you the remaining zeros are -3 and 2, so the remaining linear factors are (x +3) and (x -2). At the same time, it produces a graph of the function. This is shown in the first attachment.

a. Rewrite

Synthetic division is a convenient way to find the remaining factors of the polynomial. Dividing by (x+4) gives ...

  p(x) = (x +4)(x^3 -7x +6) . . . . . . shown in the second attachment

And dividing the cubic by (x -1) gives ...

  p(x) = (x +4)(x -1)(x^2 +x -6) . . . . . . shown in the second attachment

The quadratic will have linear terms with constants that sum to 1 and have a product of -6. These constants are 3 and -2.

The rewrite of p(x) is ...

  p(x) = (x +4)(x +3)(x -1)(x -2)

b. Graph

The 4th degree polynomial has a positive leading coefficient, so is above the x-axis at both the left and right ends of the graph. The graph crosses the x-axis at x = -4, -3, 1, and 2.

We note these roots are symmetrical about x=-1, so there will be a maximum at that point. That maximum is p(-1) = (-1 +4)(-1 +3)(-1 -1)(-1 -2) = 3·2·(-2)(-3) = 36. The minimum values will be found approximately halfway between -4 and -3, and again between -1 and -2. Those minima will be approximately p(-3.5) = (-.5)(.5)(-4.5)(-5.5) ≈ -6.2

The y-intercept is +24, the constant in the polynomial.

With the zero crossings, line of symmetry, local maximum, approximate local minima, and the y-intercept, we can make a passable sketch of the graph.

A graph is seen in the first attachment.

Salesman A gets paid $300 a month plus $8 for every sale he makes. Salesman B gets paid $1500 a mont. Write and equation and solve to see how many salesman a must make in order to make the same amount of salesman b

Answers

The salesman A must make 150 order to make the same amount of salesman B .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

Salesman A gets paid $300 per month

for every sale salesman A get $8 .

let the number of sales made by salesman A be "x" .

So, amount made by salesman A = 300 + 8x

Salesman B earns per month = $1500 .

To make the amount earned by both the salesman same ,

300 + 8x = 1500

8x = 1500 - 300

8x = 1200

x = 1200/8

x = 150

The scatterplot of the data is attached accordingly. The Linear Regression equation for Y is ŷ = 0.82X + 2.31. Note that there is a positive correlation. This is because the y variable tends to increase as the x variable increases.

What is linear regression?

Linear regression is a statistical method for modeling the connection between a scalar output and one or more explanatory factors. When there is only one independent factor, simple linear regression is employed; when there are more than one, multiple linear regression is utilized.

Note that the regression equation is usually given as:
ŷ = bX + a; where

y = dependent variable

b  = Slope/coefficient

X  = Independent Variable
a = Constant/ Intercept.

Notice that the regression line splits evenly between the data points exhibiting a linear relationship that is positively correlated.

From the graphing calculation, we have:

The sum of X = 21

The sum of Y = 33.39

Mean X = 3

Mean Y = 4.77

Sum of squares (SSₓ) = 28

Sum of products (SP) = 22.96

Recall that the regression equation is given as:
ŷ = bX + a;

Where;

b = SP/SSₓ and
a = [tex]M_{y}[/tex] -[tex]bM_{x}[/tex]

Hence,

b = 22.96/28

= 0.82

a = [tex]M_{y}[/tex] - bMₓ = 4.77 - (0.82*3) = 2.31

hence,

ŷ =  0.82X + 2.31.

Lets find Y if x = 10

y = 0.82 (10) + 2.31 [plugging in the value]

= 8.2 +2.31

= 10.51

Let's find X where Y = 10

10 =  0.82X + 2.31. [Plugging in the value]

collect like terms over the equation sign

10-2.31 = 0.82X
⇒ 7.69 = 0.82X [Divide both sides by 0.82
7.69/0.82 = X

The relation which represents a function is the mapping diagram.

What is a function?

A function can be defined as a mathematical expression which is used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variables. This ultimately implies that, a function is typically used for mapping an input variable (x-value) to an output variable (y-value).

In this scenario, the same x-value of the given ordered pairs (3, 2) and (3, 4) have the different output variable (y-value) and as such does not represent a function. Similarly, the table of values has the same x-value (-1) which outputs different numerical values.

Based on the ordered pairs and table shown above, we can reasonably and logically deduce that it is only the mapping diagram that represents a function.
