Suppose you want to buy a great pair of designer jeans that were originally priced at $95, but are now on sale for 10% off. When

you buy the jeans, you need to pay sales tax of 10% on the sales price. How much will you have to pay for the jeans?

Answer:

$94.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price of jeans=$95

Discount=10%

New price=(100% - 10%) of $95

=90% × 95

=90/100 × 95

=0.9 × 95

=$85.5

Sales tax of 10%

10% of the new price

=10/100 × 85.5

=0.1 × 85.5

=$8.55

Sales tax =$8.55

Total amount paid for the jeans= sales tax + new tax

=$8.55 + $85.5

=$94.05

scoray [572]

Answer:

<u />\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} = \boxed{ \frac{1}{4} }

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Calculus</u>

Limits

Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} x = c

Special Limit Rule [L’Hopital’s Rule]:
\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \lim_{x \to c} \frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)}

Differentiation

  • Derivatives
  • Derivative Notation

Derivative Property [Addition/Subtraction]:
\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(x) + g(x)] = \frac{d}{dx}[f(x)] + \frac{d}{dx}[g(x)]
Derivative Rule [Basic Power Rule]:

  1. f(x) = cxⁿ
  2. f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]:
\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify given limit</em>.

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3}

<u>Step 2: Find Limit</u>

Let's start out by <em>directly</em> evaluating the limit:

  1. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
    \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} = \frac{\sqrt{3 + 1} - 2}{3 - 3}
  2. Evaluate:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \frac{\sqrt{3 + 1} - 2}{3 - 3} \\& = \frac{0}{0} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}

When we do evaluate the limit directly, we end up with an indeterminant form. We can now use L' Hopital's Rule to simply the limit:

  1. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [L' Hopital's Rule]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\\end{aligned}
  2. [Limit] Differentiate [Derivative Rules and Properties]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}
  3. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \\& = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3 + 1}} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}
  4. Evaluate:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \\& = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3 + 1}} \\& = \boxed{ \frac{1}{4} } \\\end{aligned}

∴ we have <em>evaluated</em> the given limit.

The owner of a small deli is trying to decide whether to discontinue selling magazines. He suspects that only 10% of his custome
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

0.55% probability that exactly 5 out of the first 13 customers buy a magazine

Step-by-step explanation:

For each customer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they buy a magazine, or they do not. The probability of a customer buying a magazine is independent of other customers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

10% of his customers buy a magazine

This means that P = 0.1

What is the probability that exactly 5 out of the first 13 customers buy a magazine?

This is P(X = 5) when n = 13. So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 5) = C_{13,5}.(0.1)^{5}.(0.9)^{8} = 0.0055

0.55% probability that exactly 5 out of the first 13 customers buy a magazine
