2. (04.05 MC) The price of fuel may increase due to demand and decrease due to overproduction. Marco is studying the change in the price of two types of fuel, A and B, over time. The price f(x), in dollars, of fuel A after x months is represented by the function below: f(x) = 2.15(0.98)x Part A: Is the price of fuel A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per month? Justify your answer. (5 points) Part B: The table below shows the price g(m), in dollars, of fuel B after m months. m (number of months) 1 2 3 4 g(m) (price in dollars) 4.19 3.98 3.78 3.59 Which type of fuel recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous month? Justify your answer. (5 points) (10 points)

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
