Factor out the coefficient of the variable 1/2q plus 5/2

1 answer:

8 0

I believe you do it like this:
1/2 Q+5/2
divide 1/2 into each term
to divide multiply by the reciprocal
1/2 x2/1= 1
5/2 x 2/1=5

1/2(Q+5)

The selling price of an article is Rs 270. If the article was sold at 10 % discount from the marked price, find the marked price

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

s. p = 270 Rs

discount = 10%

mp.= ?

Mp = s. p + discount

= 270 + 10/100*270

= 270 + 27

= 297 Rs

<h2>297 Rs is the marked price </h2>

1. A weighted coin is biased so that a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail. If the coin is tossed 4 times, what is the pr

ohaa [14]

Answer:

80/81

Step-by-step explanation:

If a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail, then the probability of getting heads is 2/3 and the probability of getting tails is 1/3.

The probability of getting at least 1 head involves 4 scenarios:

1) 1 Head and 3 Tails

2) 2 Heads and 2 Tails

3) 3 Heads and 1 Tail

4) 4 Heads

Instead of calculate all these scenarios, you could calculate the opposite scenario: 4 Tails. The sum of all possible scenarios is 1, so:

P(at least one head) + P(no heads) = 1

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - P(no heads)

The probability of 4 tails is:

P(no heads) = P(TTTT) = (1/3)(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)=1/81

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - 1/81=80/81

Blababa [14]

The question is:

The indicated function y1(x) is a solution of the associated homogeneous equation. Use the method of reduction of order to find a second solution y2(x) of the homogeneous equation

x²y'' - 7xy' + 16y = 0; y1 = x^4

Answer:

The second solution y2 is

A(x^4)lnx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the homogeneous differential equation

x²y'' - 7xy' + 16y = 0

And a solution: y1 = x^4

We need to find a second solution y2 using the method of reduction of order.

Let y2 = uy1

=> y2 = ux^4

Since y2 is also a solution to the differential equation, it also satisfies it.

Differentiate y2 twice in succession with respect to x, to obtain y2' and y2'' and substitute the resulting values into the original differential equation.

y2' = u'. x^4 + u. 4x³

y2'' = u''. x^4 + u'. 4x³ + u'. 4x³ + u. 12x²

= u''. x^4 + u'. 8x³ + u. 12x²

Now, using these values in the original equation,

x²(u''. x^4 + u'. 8x³ + u. 12x²) - 7x(u'. x^4 + u. 4x³)+ 16(ux^4) = 0

x^6u'' + 8x^5u' + 12x^4u - 7x^5u' - 28x^4u + 16x^4u = 0

x^6u'' + x^5u' = 0

xu'' = -u'

Let w = u'

Then w' = u''

xw' = -w

w'/w = -1/x

Integrating both sides

lnw = -lnx + C

w = Ae^(-lnx) (where A = e^C)

w = A/x

But w = u'

So,

u' = A/x

Integrating this

u = Alnx

Since

y2 = uy1

We have

y2 = (Alnx)x^4 = (Ax^4)lnx

Therefore, the second solution y2 is

A(x^4)lnx
