Gavin thought he was making a good investment when he heard about an online grocery company. So he brought 500 shares in a compa

ny at $25 a share. The company ended up going bankrupt, and when Gavin sold his shares he only made $150 in total. What was the percent decrease in the share price?

Originally, the 500 shares were worth 25 bucks a share. If he only made $150 with 500 shares, the shares were worth $0.30 a share. So, subtract $0.30 from $25 to get $24.70. Divide 24.7 by 25 to get 0.988. Multiply this by 100 to change it into a percent. The share price decreased 98.8%.

Let R = [ 0 , 1 ] × [ 0 , 1 ] R=[0,1]×[0,1]. Find the volume of the region above R R and below the plane which passes through th
Bond [772]

The three vectors \langle0,0,1\rangle, \langle1,0,8\rangle, and \langle0,1,9\rangle each terminate on the plane. We can get two vectors that lie on the plane itself (or rather, point in the same direction as vectors that do lie on the plane) by taking the vector difference of any two of these. For instance,

\langle1,0,8\rangle-\langle0,0,1\rangle=\langle1,0,7\rangle

\langle0,1,9\rangle-\langle0,0,1\rangle=\langle0,1,8\rangle

Then the cross product of these two results is normal to the plane:

\langle1,0,7\rangle\times\langle0,1,8\rangle=\langle-7,-8,1\rangle

Let (x,y,z) be a point on the plane. Then the vector connecting (x,y,z) to a known point on the plane, say (0, 0, 1), is orthogonal to the normal vector above, so that

\langle-7,-8,1\rangle\cdot(\langle x,y,z\rangle-\langle0,0,1\rangle)=0

which reduces to the equation of the plane,

-7x-8y+z-1=0\implies z=7x+8y+1

Let z=f(x,y). Then the volume of the region above R and below the plane is

\displaystyle\int_0^1\int_0^1(7x+8y+1)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\boxed{\frac{17}2}

X divided by 8=1.5 divided by 2<br><br> solve for "x"
Travka [436]
1. 1,5 divided by 2 is 0,75 so on the right side its 0,75

2. We make x/8 = 0,75 | *8

so we get: x = 0,75 * 8

which is the same as x = 6

so the answer is x = 6

Determine whether $10.62/61lb = $7.05/4lb form a proportion. Explain.
Jlenok [28]
It would be $1.76 for 1 lb, then you would times that by 61 and if it equals 10.62, it is proportional. I multiplied it and got $109.28/ 62 lbs so it can not form a proportion.
