In the question, there are certain information's that are of immense importance in regards to finding the answer. The first information is that Jose Rivera had purchased 7 textbooks for his classes at River Run Community College. The price that Jose Rivera had to pay was $208.55. The average cost per textbook needs to be found.
The cost of 7 textbooks purchased by Jose Rivera = 208.55 dollars
Then
The cost of 1 textbook purchased by Jose Rivera = (208.55/7) dollars
                                                                               = 29.79 dollars
The average cost of a textbook purchased by Jose Rivera rounded to the nearest cent is 29.80 dollars.

Think of your favorite spot to get food from. You are going there to get your first meal after quarantine and the meal cost $35.
sveta [45]

Answer:

You will be paying $41.30 in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the meal is $35 and you want to leave 18% tip on the meal.

We want to find the total amount that will be paid.

First, we have to find 18% of $35 and then, add it to the original bill ($35).

18% of 35 is:

18/100 * 35 = $6.30

The tip is $6.30, therefore, the total amount paid will be:

$35 + $6.30 = $41.30

You will be paying $41.30 in total.

Find the exact length of the curve. 36y2 = (x2 − 4)3, 5 ≤ x ≤ 9, y ≥ 0
IrinaK [193]
We are looking for the length of a curve, also known as the arc length. Before we get to the formula for arc length, it would help if we re-wrote the equation in y = form.

We are given: 36 y^{2} =( x^{2} -4)^3
We divide by 36 and take the root of both sides to obtain: y = \sqrt{ \frac{( x^{2} -4)^3}{36} }

Note that the square root can be written as an exponent of 1/2 and so we can further simplify the above to obtain: y =  \frac{( x^{2} -4)^{3/2}}{6} }=( \frac{1}{6} )(x^{2} -4)^{3/2}}

Let's leave that for the moment and look at the formula for arc length. The formula is L= \int\limits^c_d {ds} where ds is defined differently for equations in rectangular form (which is what we have), polar form or parametric form.

Rectangular form is an equation using x and y where one variable is defined in terms of the other. We have y in terms of x. For this, we define ds as follows: ds= \sqrt{1+( \frac{dy}{dx})^2 } dx

As a note for a function x in terms of y simply switch each dx in the above to dy and vice versa.

As you can see from the formula we need to find dy/dx and square it. Let's do that now.

We can use the chain rule: bring down the 3/2, keep the parenthesis, raise it to the 3/2 - 1 and then take the derivative of what's inside (here x^2-4). More formally, we can let u=x^{2} -4 and then consider the derivative of u^{3/2}du. Either way, we obtain,

\frac{dy}{dx}=( \frac{1}{6})( x^{2} -4)^{1/2}(2x)=( \frac{x}{2})( x^{2} -4)^{1/2}

Looking at the formula for ds you see that dy/dx is squared so let's square the dy/dx we just found.
( \frac{dy}{dx}^2)=( \frac{x^2}{4})( x^{2} -4)= \frac{x^4-4 x^{2} }{4}

This means that in our case:
ds= \sqrt{1+\frac{x^4-4 x^{2} }{4}} dx
ds= \sqrt{\frac{4}{4}+\frac{x^4-4 x^{2} }{4}} dx
ds= \sqrt{\frac{x^4-4 x^{2}+4 }{4}} dx
ds= \sqrt{\frac{( x^{2} -2)^2 }{4}} dx
ds=  \frac{x^2-2}{2}dx =( \frac{1}{2} x^{2} -1)dx

Recall, the formula for arc length: L= \int\limits^c_d {ds}
Here, the limits of integration are given by 5 and 9 from the initial problem (the values of x over which we are computing the length of the curve). Putting it all together we have:

L= \int\limits^9_5 { \frac{1}{2} x^{2} -1 } \, dx = (\frac{1}{2}) ( \frac{x^3}{3}) -x evaluated from 9 to 5 (I cannot seem to get the notation here but usually it is a straight line with the 9 up top and the 5 on the bottom -- just like the integral with the 9 and 5 but a straight line instead). This means we plug 9 into the expression and from that subtract what we get when we plug 5 into the expression.

That is, [(\frac{1}{2}) ( \frac{9^3}{3}) -9]-([(\frac{1}{2}) ( \frac{5^3}{3}) -5]=( \frac{9^3}{6}-9)-( \frac{5^3}{6}-5})=\frac{290}{3}

Help me please !! thanks :)
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

the answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

15 percent x 0.75

= (15/100) x 0.75

= (15 x 0.75)/100

= 11.25/100 = 0.1125
