Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

The money he spent:

20 x 6 = 120

=> The number of flowers he bought:

=> 15 x 20 = 300

3/5 of 300 = 900/5 = 180

So, he sold 180 flowers for 70cents.

=> 180 x 70 = 12600 cents

=> 126  dollars

The remaining for 50 cents

=> 2/5 x 300 = 600 / 5 = 120

So, he sold 120 flowers for 50 cents

=> 120 x 50 = 6000 cents

=> 60 dollars

He got a total of 60 + 126 = 186 dollars.

He spent 120 dollars in the starting to buy the flowers.

=> 186 - 120

=> 66 dollars

So, he gets a profit of 66 dollars.

330

20 * 6 equals 120 that is the cost price

and 3/5 of the 15 flowers is 9 which was sold for 7

and the remaining that is 15 - 9 that's 6 sold for 50 each

now times it by 70 * 9 equals 630 50 * 6 equals 300 so 630 - 300 equals to 330 that is the profit

I hope this helps

Find the surface area of the part of the circular paraboloid z=x^2+y^2 that lies inside the cylinder X^2+y^2=1
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

\mathbf{\dfrac{\pi}{6}[5 \sqrt{5}-1]}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The surface area (S.A) z = x^2 +y^2

Hence the S.A is of form z = f(x,y)

Then the S.A can be represented with the equation

A(S) = \iint _D \sqrt{1+ (\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x})^2+ (\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y})^2} \ dA

where :

D = cylinder x^2 +y^2 =1

In polar co-ordinates:

D = {(r, θ): 0≤ r ≤ 1, 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π)

Similarly, \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} = 2x and \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y} = 2y

Therefore;

S.A = \iint_D \sqrt{1+4x^2+4y^2} \ dA

= \iint_D \sqrt{1+4(x^2+y^2)} \ dA

= \int^{2 \pi}_{0} \int^{1}_{0}  \sqrt{1+4r^2} \ r \ dr \d \theta

= [\theta]^{2 \pi}_{0} \dfrac{1}{8}\times \dfrac{2}{3}\begin {bmatrix} (1+4r^2)^{\dfrac{3}{2}}\end {bmatrix}^1_0

= 2 \pi \times \dfrac{1}{12}[5^{\dfrac{3}{2}} - 1]

\mathbf{=\dfrac{\pi}{6}[5 \sqrt{5}-1]}

Dicriminant of x² – 49 = 0
Mama L [17]

Answer:

196

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant (Δ) is given by:

\Delta = b^2-4ac

Where the polynomial is in the form:

ax^2+bx+c=0

In this problem, a = 1, b = 0, and c = -49. Thus, plugging it into the formula:

\Delta = 0^2-4(1)(-49) = -(-196) = 196

Thus, the discriminant of x² – 49 = 0 is 196.
