The original price is $37.99 and i get $15 off.The discounted price is $22.99 what is the percent of discount to the nearest per

cent

Answer:

60.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a comparison

22.99 over 37.99 equals x over 100

Then multiply the top of the one side with the bottom of the other

22.99 x 100 = 2299

Divide 2299 by 37.99 to solve for X

We call this bat and ball or butterfly

x = 60.5%

Since it says nearest percent I would round up to 61%

The area of the rectangular faces of the box are shown . What is the volume of the box

Gnoma [55]

Label the 3 distinct sides of the box. I arbitrarily chose the letters a, b and c.
Use the info about areas as follows:

ab=54 in^2
ac=90 in^2
bc=60 in^2

Here you have 3 equations in 3 unknowns (a, b and c), which is enough info to use to determine a, b and c. Then the volume of the box is a*b*c.

Example: bc = 90, but c = 60/b. You could subst. 60/b for c in the 2nd and 3rd equation, which will eliminate c completely and leave you with 2 equations in 2 unknowns.

Continuing this procedure, I determined that a=9, b=6 and c=10. Thus, the volume of the box is V = 9*6*10 = 540 cubic inches (answer)

The radius of a cone is increasing at a constant rate of 7 meters per minute, and the volume is decreasing at a rate of 236 cubi

storchak [24]

Answer:

The rate of change of the height is 0.021 meters per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

From the formula

$V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

Differentiate the equation with respect to time t, such that

$\frac{d}{dt} (V) = \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h)$

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi \frac{d}{dt} (r^{2}h)$

To differentiate the product,

Let r² = u, so that

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi \frac{d}{dt} (uh)$

Then, using product rule

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi [u\frac{dh}{dt} + h\frac{du}{dt}]$

Since $u = r^{2}$

Then, $\frac{du}{dr} = 2r$

Using the Chain's rule

$\frac{du}{dt} = \frac{du}{dr} \times \frac{dr}{dt}$

∴ $\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi [u\frac{dh}{dt} + h(\frac{du}{dr} \times \frac{dr}{dt})]$

Then,

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi [r^{2} \frac{dh}{dt} + h(2r) \frac{dr}{dt}]$

Now,

From the question

$\frac{dr}{dt} = 7 m/min$

$\frac{dV}{dt} = 236 m^{3}/min$

At the instant when $r = 99 m$

and $V = 180 m^{3}$

We will determine the value of h, using

$V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

$180 = \frac{1}{3}\pi (99)^{2}h$

$180 \times 3 = 9801\pi h$

$h =\frac{540}{9801\pi }$

$h =\frac{20}{363\pi }$

Now, Putting the parameters into the equation

$\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{1}{3}\pi [r^{2} \frac{dh}{dt} + h(2r) \frac{dr}{dt}]$

$236 = \frac{1}{3}\pi [(99)^{2} \frac{dh}{dt} + (\frac{20}{363\pi }) (2(99)) (7)]$

$236 \times 3 = \pi [9801 \frac{dh}{dt} + (\frac{20}{363\pi }) 1386]$

$708 = 9801\pi \frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{27720}{363}$

$708 = 30790.75 \frac{dh}{dt} + 76.36$

$708 - 76.36 = 30790.75\frac{dh}{dt}$

$631.64 = 30790.75\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{631.64}{30790.75}$

$\frac{dh}{dt} = 0.021 m/min$

Hence, the rate of change of the height is 0.021 meters per minute.

Set A contains three different positive odd integers and two different positive even integers; set B contains two different posi

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}*\frac{3}{5} +\frac{2}{5}*\frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{5} *\frac{3}{5} = \frac{19}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that in order to get one even number we need to multiply one even number times one odd number or two even numbers. So, the first term tells the probability of having an even number from A and an even number from B, the next would be even from A and odd from B and the last one tells the likelihood of having odd from A and even from B

Wht equation describes a parabola that opens up or down and whos vertex is at the point (h,v)

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$

Vertex form.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are talking about the vertex form for a parabola.

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$ tells us:

A) The vertex is (h,k).

B) Open up (if a is positive) or open down (if a is negative)

C) a also tells us how much it is vertically stretched or compressed.
