Answer:

$16.60

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x + 1.25(x - .20) = 31.25

2.5x + 1.25x - .25 = 31.25

3.75x - .25 = 31.25

3.75x = 31.25 + .25

3.75x/3.75 = 31.50/3.75

x = 8.40

y = x - .20

y = 8.20

1x + 1y = 16.60

Solve the differential equation using the method of undetermined coefficients
yuradex [85]
First: the homogeneous solutions: the characteristic equation is4r^2 - 4r - 3 = 0which has roots r = 3/2, -1/2 hence the homogeneous solution isy = c1.exp(-x/2) + c2.exp(3x/2)

next you need the general form for the guess for yp and that isyp = A1cos(2x) + A2sin(2x)
Now substitute that into the equation and solve for A1, A2.

What is the percentage increase of a room that is the size of 96 square feet to a room that is 108 square feet?
katrin [286]

Answer:

12.5% increase OR 112.5% Percentage of Change

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem consider that our original maximum value is 96 square feet, but our new maximum value is 108 square feet. So to find the change as a percentage (in this case the increase) use the following formula:

Percentage of Change = ( New Maximum / Old Maximum ) * 100

So, let's use this formula to find the percentage change of the room.

Percentage of Change = ( 108 / 96 ) * 100

Percentage of Change = (1.125) * 100

Percentage of Change = 112.5

So the percentage of Change is 112.5%. Note, the old maximum is the point of comparison which is 100%.

So to find the increase, we will do 112.5% - 100% to get 12.5%. Hence, we have a 12.5% increase of a 108 square foot room compared to a room of 96 square feet.

Cheers.
