What is the value of n in the equation 0.2(n - 6) = 2.8? (1) 8 (3) 20 (2) 2 (4) 44

So,

0.2(n - 6) = 2.8

Distribute.
0.2n - 1.2 = 2.8

Add 1.2 to both sides.
0.2n = 4

Divide both sides by .2.
n = 20

Check.
0.2(20 - 6) = 2.8

Simplify inside parentheses.
0.2(14) = 2.8

Multiply.
2.8 = 2.8 This checks.

S = {2.8}

Differentiate x^2 e^x logx

zimovet [89]

Product rule:

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}(x^2e^x\log x)$

$=\dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}e^x\log x+x^2\dfrac{\mathrm d(e^x)}{\mathrm dx}\log x+x^2e^x\dfrac{\mathrm d(\log x)}{\mathrm dx}$

Power rule:

$\dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}=2x$

The exponential function is its own derivative:

$\dfrac{\mathrm d(e^x)}{\mathrm dx}=e^x$

Assuming the base of $\log x$ is $e$ , its derivative is

$\dfrac{\mathrm d(\log x)}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac1x$

But if you mean a logarithm of arbitrary base $b$ , we have

$y=\log_bx\implies x=b^y=e^{y\ln b}\implies1=e^{y\ln b}\ln b\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}$

$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{e^{-y\ln b}}{\ln b}=\dfrac1{b^y\ln b}$

$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm d(\log_bx)}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac1{x\ln b}$

So we end up with

$2xe^x\log x+x^2e^x\log x+\dfrac{x^2e^x}x$

$=xe^x(2\log x+x\log x+1)$

tapes-r-us is have a sale on hq tape players. The regular price is $60. The discount is $18. What percent discount is this?

olga nikolaevna [1]

The discount is 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of tape = $60

Discount = $18

In order to find the percentage, we will use the percentage formula

$Percentage = \frac{discount}{Price}*100\\= \frac{18}{60} *100\\=0.3 * 100\\= 30\%$

Hence,

The discount is 30%
