Answer:

The original price of the book is $27

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the original price of each book is $x

∵ The book was on sale for $5 off of the  original price

∵ The original price is $x

- To find the price on sale subtract 5 from x

∴ The price on sale = x - 5

∵ He bought 5 copies on the sale

∴ The total price of them = 5(x - 5)

∵ The total that he spent on 5 books was $2 more than he

   would have  spent on 4 copies of the book at the original price

∵ The price of the 4 copies = 4 x

- Subtract 4 x from the price on sale and equate the difference by 2

∴ 5(x - 5) - 4 x = 2

- Simplify the left hand side

∴ 5 x - 25 - 4 x = 2

- Add the like term

∴ x - 25 = 2

- Add 25 to both sides

∴ x = 27

∵ x is the original price of each book

∴ The original price of the book is $27

Answer:

21. The slope is 50.

22. 0

23. y=50x

24. $2600

Step-by-step explanation:

21. The slope of the line is 50. Slope is defined as "rise over run". As the line increases, each segment moves up the y-axis by $50, and to the right on the x-axis 1 segment. (Work: 50 divided by 1)

22. The y-intercept is (0, 0), or simply 0. If you look at the graph you can see that the line crosses the y-axis at the origin. This makes the y-intercept equal to 0.

23. The slope tells you that the student makes $50 every week. The y-intercept is 0. Using the formula y=mx+b, an appropriate equation would be y=50x.

24. The equation found in problem 23 can me used to determine how much a student makes (y) after "x" weeks. Substitute 52 for x to solve for y. This becomes y=50(52). This can be simplified to y=2600. This means that after 52 weeks, the student will have made $2,600.

Find the general solution of the following ODE: y' + 1/t y = 3 cos(2t), t > 0.
Margarita [4]

Answer:

y = 3sin2t/2 - 3cos2t/4t + C/t

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation y' + 1/t y = 3 cos(2t) is a first order differential equation in the form y'+p(t)y = q(t) with integrating factor I = e^∫p(t)dt

Comparing the standard form with the given differential equation.

p(t) = 1/t and q(t) = 3cos(2t)

I = e^∫1/tdt

I = e^ln(t)

I = t

The general solution for first a first order DE is expressed as;

y×I = ∫q(t)Idt + C where I is the integrating factor and C is the constant of integration.

yt = ∫t(3cos2t)dt

yt = 3∫t(cos2t)dt ...... 1

Integrating ∫t(cos2t)dt using integration by part.

Let u = t, dv = cos2tdt

du/dt = 1; du = dt

v = ∫(cos2t)dt

v = sin2t/2

∫t(cos2t)dt = t(sin2t/2) + ∫(sin2t)/2dt

= tsin2t/2 - cos2t/4 ..... 2

Substituting equation 2 into 1

yt = 3(tsin2t/2 - cos2t/4) + C

Divide through by t

y = 3sin2t/2 - 3cos2t/4t + C/t

Hence the general solution to the ODE is y = 3sin2t/2 - 3cos2t/4t + C/t
