Question 1162331: A company has a budget of P90,000 to be split evenly among various offices. The marketing office of the company receives twice the amount of money than other offices. a. Given x as the number of offices in the company, construct a function f(x) which would give the amount of money each of the non-marketing offices would receive. b. If the company had five offices, how much would the non-marketing offices receive? Answer by greenestamps(13200) (Show Source):
It's rather curious that the budget is "to be split evenly among the various offices", yet one of those offices gets twice as much as each of the others....
If x is the number of offices, then the budget of P90,000 needs to be split into x+1 equal parts -- one for each office, plus one more for the office that gets two shares. So the amount each of the other offices gets is
So then if there are 5 offices, the amount the other offices get is
