If the total cost of all five meals was $51.94 which included a 6% sales tax, what was the cost of one meal before tax was added?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

259.7

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

$9.80

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to work out the original cost is to do this:

The total cost of all meals is 100%.

If we know the percentage added on top of that is 6%, we know the total is now 106% of the original price.

To work out what the original price is, divide the current amount by 106.

This gives you $0.49, then divide that by 100.

This will give you $49, which is the original cost of the meals without the 6%.

If the meals are all priced the same, dividing $49 by 5 will give you $9.80.

The minimum/maximum value of the function y = a(x − 2)(x − 1) occurs at x = d, what is the value of d?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]d=\frac{3}{2}=1.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

[tex]y=a(x-2)(x-1)[/tex]

And we want to find x=d for which the minimum/maximum value will occur.

Notice that our function is a quadratic in factored form.

Remember that the minimum/maximum value always occurs at the vertex point.

And remember that the x-coordinate of the vertex is the axis of symmetry.

Since a quadratic is always symmetrical on both sides of its axis of symmetry, a quadratic’s axis of symmetry is the average of the two roots/zeros of the quadratic.

Therefore, the value x=d such that it produces the minimum/maximum value is the average of the two roots.

Our factors are (x-2) and (x-1).

Therefore, our roots/zeros are x=1, 2.

So, the average of them are:

[tex]d=\frac{1+2}{2}=3/2=1.5[/tex]

Therefore, regardless of the value of a, the minimum/maximum value will occur at x=d=1.5.

Alternative Method:

Of course, we can also expand to confirm our answer. So:

[tex]y=a(x^2-2x-x+2)\\y=a(x^2-3x+2)\\y=ax^2-3ax+2a[/tex]

The x-coordinate of the vertex is still going to be the place where the minimum/maximum is going to occur.

And the formula for the vertex is:

[tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

So, we will substitute -3a for b and a for a. This yields:

[tex]x=-\frac{-3a}{2a}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5[/tex]

Confirming our answer.
