HELP!!! A builder of tract homes reduced the price of a model by 20%. If the new price is 280,000 what was its original price? How much can be saved by purchasing the model?

56000???

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the internet lol and searched up 20% of 280,000

, and , 

we want to find the range of 

Notice that Whatever value v can possibly produce, that is the Range of v, becomes the range of u.

Then whatever u produces for these values, is the range of  u(v(x))

So, first find range of v: clearly the domain of v is R-{0}, as v(0) makes no sense.

We check what values c can v produce:

,

this means that any c (for now) can be produced... it is enough to let x=1/c

this also means that c cannot be equal to 0 as 1/c makes no sense if c=0.

Thus the range of v is R-{0}, 

Now we check the range of u(v(x)) for v(x)∈R-{0}, 

assume we want to produce a value c, so: 



since the left side is always positive or 0, for x=0, the right hand side expression must also be positive or zero, which means c-3 must be negative or 0, 

thus c-3≤0;  c≤3.  Here recall that x in u(x) cannot be 0, so c<3.

The range of u(v(x))   is (-infinity, 3)
