Answer:

-20%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to Harry bought a quantity of fruit.

He sold half, that is 50% but I earn 60%, that is to say that here he made 10% of profits.

Then he sold 1/4 of the total, that is 25% but he took 20% of profits, that is to say that in this case he obtained 5% of losses.

They tell us that the rest was spoiled, that is, 100 - 50 - 25 = 25% was spoiled, and all that is lost, in the end the balance is as follows:

10% - 5% - 25% = -20%

That is to say that in general it lost 20% of the total.

Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be "4x".

60% gain on 1/2 of them will be:

(1.60 × 2x) = 3.2x - 2x = 1.2x

20% gain on (1/4) of them will be:

(1.2 × x) = 1.2x - x= 0.2x

Total gain 1.2x + 0.2x = 1.4x

Total gain percent= Gain/Original price =1.4x/4x = 0.35 = 35%

Answer:

A) x ≤ -2 and 0 ≤ x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) is decreasing when g'(x) is negative.

Use second fundamental theorem of calculus to find g'(x).

g(x) = ∫₋₁ˣ (t³ − t² − 6t) / √(t² + 7) dt

g'(x) = (x³ − x² − 6x) / √(x² + 7) (1)

To find when g'(x) is negative, first find where it is 0.

0 = (x³ − x² − 6x) / √(x² + 7)

0 = x³ − x² − 6x

0 = x (x² − x − 6)

0 = x (x − 3) (x + 2)

x = -2, 0, or 3

Check the intervals before and after each zero.

x < -2, g'(x) < 0

-2 < x < 0, g'(x) > 0

0 < x < 3, g'(x) < 0

3 < x, g'(x) > 0

g(x) is decreasing on the intervals x ≤ -2 and 0 ≤ x ≤ 3.

Answer:

1. y = 9280 - 20x

2. f(y) = 6.37y - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The equation is given to be \frac{1}{16}x + \frac{1}{320}y - 29 = 0

Now, rearranging the function we can write  

\frac{y}{320} = 29 - \frac{x}{16}

⇒ y = 9280 - 20x

Hence, this is the equation as a function of x. (Answer)

2. The given function is y - 6.37x = - 3

Therefore, we can write, y = 6.37x - 3

Hence, f(x) = 6.37x - 3

⇒ f(y) = 6.37y - 3.

Hence, option D is true. (Answer)

What is another way to name ∠MNO ?
katrin [286]

Alright, lets get started.

Please take a look to the diagram I have attached.

The base side is ON

The terminal side is MN.

We could say angle MNO as angle N.

We could day it as angle ONM also.

So, the answer is ∠ N and ∠ONM.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)
