Kaleighs clothes : 

£50=100%
so to find one percent you divide by 100
£0.5=1%
if you then do how much of (£5) by one percent which is (£0.5)
then you get 
5 divided by 0.5 to get 10
which means kaleighs clothes are 10% off 

mimick this idea for Rachels clothes and the greater the percentage, shows whos clothes had the biggest percentage discount

(5/50) x 100 = 10%
(3/20) x 100 = 15%
So Rachel has the biggest discount

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase is the <em>difference</em> between the 2009 price and the 2008 price.

$9.50 - $9.37 = $0.13

Determine whether each mapping represents a function. Explain your reasoning.
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The first picture is a function and the second picture is not.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason - In the first picture, there is no repeating value of x. In other words, every x value has a y value. However, in the second picture, the x value, 2 goes to 2 and -3.

Solve the following system of equations by the substitution method.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=y+6   --------- equ 1

2x-3y=4  -------- equ 2

5x - 6 = y

y = 5x - 6

substitute in equ 2

2x-3(5x - 6) =4

2x - 3*5x + 3*6 = 4

2x - 15x + 18 = 4

- 13x = 4 - 18

-13x = -14

x = -14/-13

x = 14/13

substitute  in equ 1

5*14/13 = y+6  

70/13 - 6 = y

y =  ( 70 - 78)/13

y = -8/13

use the general slicing method to find the volume of The solid whose base is the triangle with vertices (0 comma 0 )​, (15 comma
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

volume V of the solid

\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is depicted in the picture attached

(see picture)

First, we divide the segment [0, 5] on the X-axis into n equal parts of length 5/n each

[0, 5/n], [5/n, 2(5/n)], [2(5/n), 3(5/n)],..., [(n-1)(5/n), 5]

Now, we slice our solid into n slices.  

Each slice is a quarter of cylinder 5/n thick and has a radius of  

-k(5/n) + 5  for each k = 1,2,..., n (see picture)

So the volume of each slice is  

\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-k(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}

for k=1,2,..., n

We then add up the volumes of all these slices

\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-2(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+...+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-n(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}

Notice that the last term of the sum vanishes. After making up the expression a little, we get

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left[(-(5/n)+5)^2+(-2(5/n)+5)^2+...+(-(n-1)(5/n)+5)^2\right]=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2

But

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}((5/n)^2k^2-(50/n)k+25)=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)

we also know that

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}

and

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}

so we have, after replacing and simplifying, the sum of the slices equals

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left(\displaystyle\frac{25}{n^2}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}-\displaystyle\frac{50}{n}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}

Now we take the limit when n tends to infinite (the slices get thinner and thinner)

\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(2-3/n+1/n^2)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.2=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}

and the volume V of our solid is

\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}

Mrs. Hinely grows roses. There are 6 roses on each of her 10 rose bushes. How many roses in all are on Mrs. Hinely's rose bushes
diamong [38]
In order to find the total number of roses, we can use multiplication. Since there are 6 roses on each bush, we can say that the answer is: 6+6+6+6+6+6+6+6+6+6. Since multiplication is a way to quickly add the same number, we can use 6*10. This becomes 60. 

Good luck :D
