Answer:

13%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • MP = 2080
  • Discount = d%
  • VAT = (d-2)%
  • Cost = 1997.84

<u>Apply discount:</u>

  • 2080 - d% = 2080*(1 - 0.01d)

<u>Add VAT:</u>

  • 2080*(1 - 0.01d) + (d - 2)%
  • 2080*(1 - 0.01d) * (1 + (d -2)/100)
  • 2080*(1 - 0.01d) * (0.98 + 0.01d) = 1997.84
  • (1 - 0.01d)(0.98 + 0.01d) = 1997.84/2080
  • 0.98 + 0.01d - 0.0098d - 0.0001d² = 0.9605
  • - 0.0001d² + 0.0002d + 0.98- 0.9605 = 0
  • 0.0001d²- 0.0002d - 0.0195 = 0
  • d² - 2d + 195 = 0

<u>Solving the quadratic equation we get:</u>

  • d = 15

<u>Then</u>

  • VAT rate = 15 - 2 = 13%

10 points! How do I factor 8x^2-26x+15
Rufina [12.5K]
<h3><u>(2x - 5)(4x - 3)</u></h3>

The AC method, also known as splitting the middle, can be shown like this:

8x^2 - 26x + 15

<em><u>Check factors of 120.</u></em>

1 * 120

-1 * -120

2 * 60

-2 * -60

3 * 40

-3 * -40

5 * 24

-5 * -24

6 * 20

-6 * -20 (these factors, when added together, are equal to the middle term, and thus splitting the middle term is possible.)

<em><u>Split the middle term.</u></em>

8x^2 - 6x - 20x + 15

<em><u>Group in terms of 2.</u></em>

(8x^2 - 6x) - (20x + 15)

<em><u>Factor each binomial.</u></em>

2x(4x - 3) - 5(4x - 3)

<em><u>Rearrange the terms.</u></em>

(2x - 5)(4x - 3)

The length of one base of a trapezoid is 19 less than five times the length of the other base. If the trapezoid has a height of
ycow [4]

The length of the longer base is 41 ft.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Lets assume, length of one base is x ft.

As, another base is 19 less than five times the length of this base, so the length of another base = (5x- 19) ft.

The trapezoid has a height of 18 ft and area of 477 ft²

Formula for Area of trapezoid, A=\frac{1}{2} (a+b)*h , where a, b = Two bases of trapezoid and h = height of the trapezoid.

Given in the question: A= 477 and h= 18

We have also two bases as: a= x and b= 5x-19

So, according to the above formula...

A= \frac{1}{2}(a+b)h\\\\ 477=\frac{1}{2}(x+5x-19)*18\\\\ 477=9(6x-19)\\\\477= 54x-171\\\\477+171=54x\\\\648=54x\\\\x=\frac{648}{54} = 12

So, length of one base is 12 ft  and another base =(5*12-19)ft =(60-19)ft = 41 ft

That means, the length of the longer base is 41 ft.

Can anybody please help?

Area of the shaded region = Area <span>of a square - Area of a circle
</span>
Side of a square = 2r
Area of a square = (2r)² = 4r²

Area of a circle = πr²

Area of the shaded region = 4r² - πr² = r²(4-π)

Sin(xy)-x=0 find dy/Dx

If you're using the app, try seeing this answer through your browser:  brainly.com/question/2989024

——————————

You have  y  as an implicit function of  x:

sin(xy) – x = 0


Use implicit differentiation. As  y  is a function of  x, then you must apply the chain rule there:

  d                                 d
—— [ sin(xy) – x ]  =  —— (0)
 dx                               dx


  d                           d               d
—— [ sin(xy) ]  –  —— (x)  =  —— (0)
 dx                         dx             dx

  d
—— [ sin(xy) ]  –  1  =  0
 dx

  d
—— [ sin(xy) ]  =  1
 dx
 
                   d
cos(xy)  ·  —— (xy) = 1
                  dx


Now, apply the product rule for that last derivative:

\mathsf{cos(xy)\cdot \left[\dfrac{d}{dx}(x)\cdot y+x\cdot \dfrac{dy}{dx}\right]=1}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{cos(xy)\cdot \left[1\cdot y+x\cdot \dfrac{dy}{dx}\right]=1}\\\\\\&#10;\mathsf{y\,cos(xy)+x\,cos(xy)\cdot \dfrac{dy}{dx}=1}


              dy
Isolate  —— :
              dx

                   dy
x cos(xy) · ——  =  1 – y cos(xy)
                   dx


Assuming  x cos(xy) ≠ 0,

 dy          1 – y cos(xy)
——  =  ————————    <———    this is the answer.
 dx            x cos (xy)


I hope this helps. =)
