A(x) = -0.015x^3+1.05xA ( x ) = − 0.015 x 3 + 1.05 x gives the alcohol level in an average person's blood x hrs after drinking 8 oz of 100-proof whiskey. If the level exceeds 1.5 units, a person is legally drunk. Would an average person be legally drunk after 4 hours?

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

the function that gives the alcohol level is:

where x is the number of hours.

we need to know if after 4 hours an average person is legally drunk, thus:

and we substitute this in the function:

solving these operations we obtain:

the alcohol level after 4 hours is 3.24.

Since a person is considered to be legally drunk if the level exceeds 1.5, and we obtained 3.24 which is greater than 1.5, a person who has been drinking for 4 hours under the conditions indicated by the problem would be considered legally drunk.

$30.32

step-by-step explanation:

65.00*.12=2.80

65.00-2.80=57.20

57.20*1.06=60.632

60.632/2=30.316

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
