Answer:

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Original price of a microwave = $ 75

Mark-up price of the microwave = $ 90

Sale price of the microwave = $ 57

2. What is the percent decrease from the original price to the sale price?

For answering this question we will use the Direct Rule of Three this way:

Price         Percentage

75                 100%

57                   x

75x = 57 * 100

75x = 5,700

x = 5,700/75

x = 76

76 = 100 - 24

<u>The percent decrease of the microwave from the original price to the sale price is 24%</u>

For the following question, find the volume of the given prism. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary
NARA [144]

The volume of the triangular prism is 1756.3 cubic yd option second is correct.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

It is defined as a three-dimensional space enclosed by an object or thing.

We know that the volume of a triangular prism is given by:

\rm V = \dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times l\times h

Where b is the base length, l is the base width, and h is the height of the prism.

\rm h=\sqrt{13^2-(\dfrac{13}{2}) ^2

h = 11.2583 yd

b = 13 yd

l = 24 yd

\rm V = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 13\times 24\times 11.2583

V = 1756.29 ≈ 1756.3 cubic yd

Thus, the volume of the triangular prism is 1756.3 cubic yd option second is correct.

Let p denote the population of the United States (in millions) in the year
Fofino [41]

Answer:

dp/dt = 10⁻⁵p(2225 − 4.2381p)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the function is

0 = ln p + 45.8177 − ln (2225 − 4.2381p) − 0.02225t

Differentiating the function implicitly with respect to time, we have

d0/dt = d[ln p + 45.8177 − ln (2225 − 4.2381p) − 0.02225t]/dt

d0/dt = d[ln p]/dt + d[45.8177]/dt − d[ln (2225 − 4.2381p)]/dt − d[0.02225t]/dt

0 = (1/p)dp/dt + 0 − (1/(2225 − 4.2381p)) × -4.2381 dp/dt − 0.02225

0 = (1/p)dp/dt + 4.2381 dp/dt/(2225 − 4.2381p)  − 0.02225

-(1/p)dp/dt - 4.2381 dp/dt/(2225 − 4.2381p)  = − 0.02225

(1/p)dp/dt + 4.2381 dp/dt/(2225 − 4.2381p)  =  0.02225

Factorizing out dp/dt from the left hand side, we have

[(1/p) + 4.2381/(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  =  0.02225

taking L.C.M of the left-hand-side and simplifying, we have

[((2225 − 4.2381p + 4.2381p)/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  =  0.02225

[2225/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  =  0.02225

dividing both sides by2225, we have

[1/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  =  0.02225/2225

[1/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  =  0.00001

[1/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  = 10⁻⁵

multiplying both sides by p(2225 − 4.2381p), we have

p(2225 − 4.2381p)[1/p(2225 − 4.2381p)]dp/dt  = 10⁻⁵p(2225 − 4.2381p)

So, dp/dt = 10⁻⁵p(2225 − 4.2381p)
