Answer:

Discounted price= 0.7 p

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = p

Since we are given that 30 % is off on the price

So, 30 % of p

\frac{30}{100} \times p

0.3p

So, the discount is of amount 0.3p

So, the discounted price = Original price - Discount amount

So,the discounted price = p-0.3p

Discounted price= 0.7 p

Hence expression can be used to find the price of the shoes after the discount is 0.7p

Original price = p
Discount price = p * (30/100)
                        = 0.3p
Price after the discount
p - 0.3p
0.7p

Classify each conic section and write its equations in standard form. Show work.
svp [43]

Answer:

The conic is ellipse of equation (x - 1)²/22 + (y + 4)²/44 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to identify the type of the conic  

- Rewrite the equation in the general form,  

 Ax² + Bxy + Cy² + Dx + Ey + F = 0  

- Identify the values of A and C from the general form.  

- If A and C are nonzero, have the same sign, and are not equal  

 to each other, then the graph is an ellipse.  

- If A and C are equal and nonzero and have the same sign, then  

 the graph is a circle  

- If A and C are nonzero and have opposite signs, and are not equal  

then the graph is a hyperbola.  

- If either A or C is zero, then the graph is a parabola  

* Now lets solve the problem

The equation is 4x² + 2y² - 8x + 16y - 52 = 0

∴ A = 4 and C = 2 ⇒ same sign and different values

∴ The equation is ellipse

* The standard form of the ellipse is

  (x - h)²/a² + (y - k)²/b² = 1

- Lets try to make this form from the general form

- Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the

  constant to the opposite side of the equation

∴ (4x² - 8x) + (2y² + 16y) = 52

- Factorize the coefficients of the squared terms

∴ 4(x² - 2x) + 2(y² + 8y) = 52

- Complete the square for x and y

# To make completing square

- Divide the coefficient  of x (or y) by 2 and then square the answer

- Add and subtract this square number and form the bracket of

 the completing the square

# 2 ÷ 2 = 1 ⇒ (1)² = 1 ⇒ add and subtract 1

∴ 4[(x² - 2x + 1) - 1] = 4(x² - 2x + 1) - 4

- Rewrite as perfect squares ⇒ 4(x -1)² - 4

# 8 ÷ 2 = 4 ⇒ (4)² = 16 ⇒ add and subtract 16

∴ 2[(y² + 8y + 16) - 16] = 2(y² + 8y + 16)² - 32

- Rewrite as perfect squares ⇒ 2(y + 4)² - 32

∴ 4(x - 1)² - 4 + 2(y + 4)² - 32 = 52

∴ 4(x - 1)² - 4 + 2(y + 4)² = 32 + 4 + 52

∴ 4(x - 1)² + 2(y + 4)² = 88 ⇒ divide all terms by 88

∴ (x - 1)²/22 + (y + 4)²/44 = 1

A rectangle is 3 inches long and 2x inches wide. The value of the perimeter (in inches) is equal to the value of the area (in sq
Sergio [31]
The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to the doubled sum of the sides, and the area is equal to the product of the sides. So we have the following equation

3 x 2x = 2(3 + 2x)
6x = 6 + 4x
2x = 6
x = 3

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 26 yards. The length is 4 more yards than twice the width. Find the length and width of
solong [7]

The formula for perimeter is P = 2length + 2width (P = 2L + 2W)

You know that the length is 4 more yards then twice the width. In equation form this would be:

length = 4 + 2w

Plug what you know into the perimeter formula:

26 = 2(4 + 2w) + 2w

First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 4 and 2w...

26 = (2 * 4) + (2 * 2w) + 2w

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with  the same variables (w) must be combined...

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

4w + 2w = 6w

26 = 8 + 6w

Now bring 8 to the left side by subtracting 8 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 8 is being added on the right side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.

26 - 8 = 8 - 8 + 6w

18 = 0 + 6w

18 = 6w

To isolate w divide 6 to both sides

18 / 6 = 6w / 6

w = 3

We know that the width is 3 ft

Now you must find the length. To do this plug 3 where you see w in the equation:

length = 4 + 2w

l = 4 + 2(3)

l = 4 + 6

l = 10

We know that length is 10 ft

Letter B. is the correct answer

Hope this helped!
