DVD player have greatest percentage decrease that is 33.33% compared to Video game console having percentage decrease of 30%.

<u>Solution:</u>

Marked price of DVD player = $150

After discount, price of DVD player = $100

Marked price of Video game console =$250

After it is marked down by $75, discount price of videogame = $250 - $75 = $175

Need to determine which device has greater percentage decrease.

\text { Percentage decrease of D.V.D player }=\frac{\text {Marked Price-discount price}}{\text { marked price }} \times 100

\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{150-100}{150} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{50}{150} \times 100=33.33 \%}\end{array}

\text { Percentage decrease of Video game console }=\frac{\text {Marked Price-discount price}}{\text { marked price }} \times 100

\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{250-175}{250} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{75}{250} \times 100=30 \%}\end{array}

Hence DVD player have greatest percentage decrease that is 33.33% compared to Video game console having percentage decrease of 30%.

Let $f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 31$. for what value of $a$ is there exactly one real value of $x$ such that $f(x) = a$?
enot [183]

To solve for this, we need to find for the value of x when the 1st derivative of the equation is equal to zero (or at the extrema point).

So what we have to do first is to derive the given equation:

f (x) = x^2 + 4 x – 31

 

Taking the first derivative f’ (x):

f’ (x) = 2 x + 4

 

Setting f’ (x) = 0 and find for x:

2 x + 4 = 0

x = - 2

 

Therefore the value of a is:

a = f (-2)

a = (-2)^2 + 4 (-2) – 31

a = 4 – 8 – 31

a = - 35
