Answer

$25.59

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract by percentage or you can also do:

100% - 4.5% = 95.5%

95.5% x $26.80 = $25.594

IF ROUNDED: $25.59

Answer:

$25.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original hourly rate be r.  

Then 1.045r + $26.80/hr.

Dividing both sides by 1.045, we get:

      $26.80/hr

r = ------------------ = $25.65  This was the before-raise pay rate.

         1.045

Use lagrange multiplier techniques to find the local extreme values of f(x, y) = x2 − y2 − 2 subject to the constraint x2 + y2 =
dexar [7]
Given f(x,\ y)=x^2-y^2-2 subject to the constraint x^2+y^2=16

Let g(x,\ y)=x^2+y^2.

The gradient vectors of f and g are:

\nabla f(x,\ y)=\langle2x,-2y\rangle and \nabla g(x,\ y)=\langle2x,2y\rangle

By Lagrange's theorem, there is a number \lambda, such that

\langle2x,-2y\rangle=\lambda\langle2x,2y\rangle=\langle2\lambda x,2\lambda y\rangle

\lambda=\pm1

It can be seen that f(x,\ y)=x^2-y^2-2 has local extreme values at the given region.

Examine the system of equations. y = 3 2 x − 6, y = −9 2 x + 21 Use substitution to solve the system of equations. What is the v
nadezda [96]

Answer:

<h2>y = -4/9</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations y = 3/2 x − 6, y = −9/2 x + 21, since both expressions are functions of y, we will equate both of them to find the variable x;

3/2 x − 6 = −9/2 x + 21,

Cross multiplying;

3(2x+21) = -9(2x-6)

6x+63 = -18x+54

collecting the like terms;

6x+18x = 54-63

24x = -9

x = -9/24

x = -3/8

To get the value of y, we will substitute x = -3/8 into any of the given equation. Using the first equation;

y = 3/2x-6

y = 3/{2(-3/8)-6}

y = 3/{(-3/4-6)}

y = 3/{(-3-24)/4}

y = 3/(-27/4)

y = 3 * -4/27

y = -4/9

Hence, the value of y is -4/9

Nick is now 7 times as old as harry. in 6 years, nick will be 5 times as old as harry. how old will harry be in 6 years?
zalisa [80]
Let,
Harry's age - x then Nick is 7x. 
After 6 years, Harry is  x+6 and Nick is 7x+6
So, 7x+6= 5(x+6)=> 2x = 30-6X = 12
In 6 years, Harry will be 12+6 = 18 years (Ans)
