I think the answer is (E) which is 40 because first you divide 2.10 by .42 which equals 5. Since you can get 8 pencils for .42 cents you just multiply 8 by 5.

40, because you have to divide 2.10 by 0.42 and when you do so you get 5, then you multiply by 8 because 8 pencils cost 0.42.

Which of the following functions has a range of all real numbers?

serious [3.7K]

Only the function in C has the range of all real numbers.
Later on, when you will be familiar with more type of functions you will know that when x is on the power range is usually only positive values or negative values if only not shifted, even if shifted it will only add to its range this numbers by which unit it was shifted.
B is shifted parabola. It has the range of {y| -3≤∞}

Given the system of constraints name all vertices. Then find the maximum value of the given objective

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

$35$

Step-by-step explanation:

The constraints are

The red line represents the function

$y\leq \dfrac{1}{3}x+1$

At $y=0$

$0=\dfrac{1}{3}x+1\\\Rightarrow -1=\dfrac{1}{3}x\\\Rightarrow x=-3$

At $x=0$

$y=0+1\\\Rightarrow y=1$

Two points are $(-3,0),(0,1)$

The blue line represents the function

$5\geq y+x$

at $y=0$

$5=x$

at $x=0$

$y=5$

Two points are $(5,0),(0,5)$

The other two constraints are $x\geq 0$ , $y\geq 0$ . So, the point has to be in the first quadrant

From the graph it can be seen there are two points where the function will be maximum let us check them.

$(3,2)$

$7x-2y=7\times 3-2\times 2=17$

$(5,0)$

$7x-2y=7\times 5-2\times 0=35$

So, the maximum value of the function is $35$ .
