Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our goal is to round it so we only have an integer part using the following rules:

If the first digit in the fractional part of 13.62 is less than 5 then we simply remove the fractional part to get the answer.

If the first digit in the fractional part of 13.62 is 5 or above, then we add 1 to the integer part and remove the fractional part to get the answer.

The first digit in the fractional part is 6 and 6 is 5 or above. Therefore, we add 1 to the integer part and remove the fractional part to get 13.62 rounded to the nearest whole number as:

Setler79 [48]

$\huge\sf\underline{Answer}$

$\sf\longrightarrow selling \: prize \: = \frac{100 + profit\%}{100} \times cp$

$\sf\longrightarrow \frac{108}{100} \times 15000 = 16200$

Let the marked prize of the TV be x .

$\sf\longrightarrow discount = 20\% \: of \: x \: = \frac{20}{100}x = \frac{x}{5}$

We have SP = MP - Discount

$\sf\longrightarrow 16200 \: = \: x - \frac{x}{5}$

$\sf\longrightarrow 16200 \: = \frac{4x}{5}$

$\sf\longrightarrow x \: = \: 20250$

Hence , The marked prize of the TV is ₹20,250 .

If 2(4x + 3)/(x - 3)(x + 7) = a/x - 3 + b/x + 7, find the values of a and b.

zmey [24]

Answer:

$a=3$ and $b=5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

So I believe the problem is this:

$\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}=\frac{a}{x-3}+\frac{b}{x+7}$

where we are asked to find values for $a$ and $b$ such that the equation holds for any $x$ in the equation's domain.

So I'm actually going to get rid of any domain restrictions by multiplying both sides by (x-3)(x+7).

In other words this will clear the fractions.

$\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)=\frac{a}{x-3}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)+\frac{b}{x+7}(x-3)(x+7)$

$2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)$

As you can see there was some cancellation.

I'm going to plug in -7 for x because x+7 becomes 0 then.

$2(4\cdot -7+3)=a(-7+7)+b(-7-3)$

$2(-28+3)=a(0)+b(-10)$

$2(-25)=0-10b$

$-50=-10b$

Divide both sides by -10:

$\frac{-50}{-10}=b$

$5=b$

Now we have:

$2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)$ with $b=5$

I notice that x-3 is 0 when x=3. So I'm going to replace x with 3.

$2(4\cdot 3+3)=a(3+7)+b(3-3)$

$2(12+3)=a(10)+b(0)$

$2(15)=10a+0$

$30=10a$

Divide both sides by 10:

$\frac{30}{10}=a$

$3=a$

So $a=3$ and $b=5$ .

ipn [44]

Answer:

The correct ans is....

38%

0.4

0.52

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Order form least to greatest means " Ascending order "

38 % = 38/100

0.4 = 40/100

0.52 = 52/100

5/8 = 62.5/100
