Cross multiply to find your answer
x/250 = 20/100
250 X 20= 5000
5000=100x
x = 50
250 - 50 = 200

Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

You will multiply the percent by the original price. This gives you the discount amount. Then you subtract het from the original price.

Solve the differential. This was in the 2016 VCE Specialist Maths Paper 1 and i'm a bit stuck

Nimfa-mama [501]

$\sqrt{2 - x^{2}} \cdot \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{2 - y}$
$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{(2 - y)\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$

Now, isolate the variables, so you can integrate.
$(2 - y)dy = \frac{dx}{\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$
$\int (2 - y)\,dy = \int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$
$2y - \frac{y^{2}}{2} = sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{1}{2}C$

$4y - y^{2} = 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} + C$
$y^{2} - 4y = -2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$(y - 2)^{2} - 4 = -2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$(y - 2)^{2} = 4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$

$y - 2 = \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$
$y = 2 \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

At x = 1, y = 0.
$0 = 2 \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$
$-2 = \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

$4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C > 0$
$\therefore 2 = \sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

$4 = 4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$0 = -2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$C = -2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = -2\frac{\pi}{4}$
$C = -\frac{\pi}{2}$

$\therefore y = 2 - \sqrt{4 + \frac{\pi}{2} - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}}}$

Jamal planted 53 fewer flowers than Heidi. Write an expression to show how many flowers Heidi planted.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

y = x + 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of flowers Jamal planted and y the number of flowers Heidi planted.

Jamal planted 53 fewer flowers than Heidi:

x = y - 53

Isolate the y.

x + 53 = y (Change the - sign to + sign when switching from different sides of an equation)

y = x + 53

<h3>Answer: 15 years old</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

m = Maggie's age (some positive whole number)

4m = four times her age

4m-7 = seven years younger than 4m = brother's age

Add up her age (m) and her brother's age (4m-7) to get a sum of 68.

m+(4m-7) = 68

5m-7 = 68

5m = 68+7

5m = 75

m = 75/5

m = 15

Maggie is currently 15 years old.

Her brother is currently 4m-7 = 4*15-7 = 60-7 = 53 years old.

Their current year ages add to: 15+53 = 68 which confirms the answer.
