Students at a school will sell hats to raise money. There are some hats left
over from last year, and 20 boxes of
hats will be ordered this year. When
the order arrives, the total number of
hats the students will have can be
determined using the function
f(x) = 48x + 37, where x
represents the number of boxes
ordered. If the number of hats per box
changes so that the situation is
modeled by the function
h(x) = 24x + 37, then how many
fewer hats will the students have
available to sell if they still order 20
boxes?
A. 240
B. 480
C. 48
D. 24

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}

step-by-step explanation:

"exterior angles = 360 / number of sides.

60 = 360 / sides

sides = 360 / 60

sides = 6"

x^3-4x^2+3x-2/x^2+1

step-by-step explanation:

factor the numerator and denominator and cancel the common factors
