Answers

Answer 1

The linear function c(x) to represent the cost of tuition as a function of "the number of years since 1990" denoted by "x" is [tex][c(x) = 14x+94][/tex].

As per the question statement, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $94 per credit hour in 1994 while it had risen to $290 per credit hour in 2004.

We are required to determine a linear function c(x) that represents the cost of tuition as a function of "the number of years since 1990", denoted by "x".

To solve this question, we need to know the equation of a line passing through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) which goes as

[tex](y-y_{1} )=(\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1}})(x-x_{1})[/tex].

Here, if we consider (x = 0) at 1990, c(x) = 94.

And since the standard form of conversion of functions into coordinate points goes as [y = f(x)], i.e., the ordinate is a function of the abscissa, therefore in this case, [y = c(x) = 94].

Thus, we can consider (x₁, y₁) as (0, 94).

Similarly, at 2004, [x = (2004-1990) = 14], and c(x) = 290, i.e.,

We can consider as (x₂, y₂) as (14, 290).

Using the values of (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), in the above mentioned standard equation of line passing through two points, we get,

[tex](y-94)=\frac{290-94}{14-0} (x-0)\\or, (y-94)=\frac{196}{14}x\\or,(y-94)=14x\\or,y=14x+94[/tex].

Hence, the linear function c(x) that represents the cost of tuition as a function of "the number of years since 1990", denoted by "x" is  [tex][c(x) = 14x+94][/tex].

Linear Function: In Mathematics, a function is an operator which when provided with a input, gives a certain output, and when a function can be depicted in form of a linear equation, it is known as a linear function.

which of the following indicates the division property of equality when solving -12x = 48​

Answers

From division it is possible to find x= -4.

Linear Function

An equation can be represented by a linear function. The standard form for the linear equation is: y= ax+b , for example, y=7x+2. Where:

a= the slope. It can be calculated for [tex]a=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}[/tex] .

b= the constant term that represents the y-intercept.

For the given example: a=7 and b=2.

For solving  linear equations, you should organize variables on one side of the equation and the numbers on the other side. When a number or variables change side, its signal also is changed.

Therefore for -12x=48, you should follow the steps below

Answers

The piecewise function for the discounted price of the purchase is given by:

D(x) = 0.96x, 300≤x<1,000.D(x) = 0.95x, 1,000≤x<3,000.D(x) = 0.94x, 3,000≤x<5,000.D(x) = 0.9x, 5,000≤x.

What is a piecewise function?

A piecewise function is a function that has different definitions, depending on the input.

For $300≤x<$1,000, the discount is of 4%, hence the discounted price is 96% of the original price, that is:

D(x) = 0.96x, 300≤x<1,000

For $1,000≤x<$3,000, the discount is of 5%, hence the discounted price is 95% of the original price, that is:

D(x) = 0.95x, 1,000≤x<3,000.

For $3,000≤x<$5,000, the discount is of 6%, hence the discounted price is 94% of the original price, that is:

D(x) = 0.94x, 3,000≤x<5,000.

For $5,000≤x, the discount is of 10%, hence the discounted price is 90% of the original price, that is:

D(x) = 0.9x, 5,000≤x.

Find the 96th term of the arithmetic
sequence -3, -14, -25,

Answers

The 96th term of this arithmetic sequence is -1059.

In an Arithmetic Progression (AP), the nth term is given by the formula-

a9 = a + (n-1)d

where a = first term of the AP

d = common difference

Here, we are given an AP-

-3, -14, -25

Here a = -3

and d = -14 + 3 = -11

Let the 96th term of the AP be a96

Therefore, according to the formula for finding the nth term of an AP, we get-

a96 = a + (96-1)d

a9 = a + 95d

Substituting the values of a and d given in the question-

a96 = -3 + 96(-11)

a96 = -3 - 1056

a96 = -1059

Thus, the 96th term of the arithmetic sequence is -1059.

Determine if the conjecture is true or false.
If False give a counterexample.

Answers

a = 1, b = 2 is a counterexample, and with that, we conclude that the conjecture is false.

Is the conjecture true or false?

Here we have the conjecture:

"For any two integers a and b, (a - b)^2 = (a^2 - b^2)"

Notice that if we find a single pair of integers a and b such that the equality in the conjecture is false, then we have found a counterexample and that is enough to conclude that the conjecture is false.

If we define=

a = 1

b = 2

Replacing that in the equation of the conjecture we get:

(1 - 2)^2 = (1^2 - 2^2)

(-1)^2 = 1 - 4

1 = -3

This is false, then a = 1, b = 2 is a counterexample, and with that we conclude that the conjecture is false.

The constant of proportionality is the ratio that relates two given values in what is known as a proportional relationship.

We know that:

Robins ∝ Cardinals

Robins = K × Cardinals

K = the constant of proportionality
