If you have a calculator: 
<span>1) To find 1%, divide by 100 (70 / 100 = 0.7) </span>

<span>2) Then, multiply by the % you need (0.7 x 13 = 9.1) </span>

<span>Therefore 70 - 9.1 = 60.9 </span>

<span>If you don't have a calculator: </span>
<span>1) Find 50%, 10%, 5%, and 1%. With these, you can make any % you need. </span>
<span>50% = X / 2 (= 35) </span>
<span>10% = X / 10 (= 7) </span>
<span>5% = first, do 10%, then divide that by 2 (= 3.5) </span>
<span>1% = X / 100 (= 0.7) </span>
<span>Where X is the number you want to work out % for </span>

<span>2) Add those % up to get the amount you want </span>
<span>10% + 1% + 1% +1% = 13% </span>
<span>7 + 0.7 + 0.7 + 0.7 = 9.1 </span>

<span>Therefore 70 - 9.1 = 60.9
Hope that helps :)</span>

If f(x)=2x+sinx and the function g is the inverse of f then g'(2)=
Alexxx [7]
\bf f(x)=y=2x+sin(x)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;inverse\implies x=2y+sin(y)\leftarrow f^{-1}(x)\leftarrow g(x)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, the "y" in the inverse, is really just g(x)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{so, we can write it as }x=2g(x)+sin[g(x)]\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\

\bf \textit{let's use implicit differentiation}\\\\&#10;1=2\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}+cos[g(x)]\cdot \cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}\impliedby \textit{common factor}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;1=\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}[2+cos[g(x)]]\implies \cfrac{1}{[2+cos[g(x)]]}=\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}=g'(x)\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[g(2)]}

now, if we just knew what g(2)  is, we'd be golden, however, we dunno

BUT, recall, g(x) is the inverse of f(x), meaning, all domain for f(x) is really the range of g(x) and, the range for f(x), is the domain for g(x)

for inverse expressions, the domain and range is the same as the original, just switched over

so, g(2) = some range value
that  means if we use that value in f(x),   f( some range value) = 2

so... in short, instead of getting the range from g(2), let's get the domain of f(x) IF the range is 2

thus    2 = 2x+sin(x)

\bf 2=2x+sin(x)\implies 0=2x+sin(x)-2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[g(2)]}\implies g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[2x+sin(x)-2]}

hmmm I was looking for some constant value... but hmm, not sure there is one, so I think that'd be it

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

You can buy 12 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took 40 and 3.25, then divided them.

I got a very large ugly decimal. When simplified it is 12.

Which equation has exactly one solution in common with the equation y=6x-2?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

A. 18x - 3y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

By taking 3 common from the terms 18x and 3y we get,

3 (6x-3y) = 6

or, 6x - y = 6/3

or, 6x - y = 2

And,

The equation becomes,

y = 6x - 2

The owner purchases 5 buckets, 10 brushes, 48 towels, and 1 case of air fresheners for the car wash. The total cost of the purch
Allushta [10]
5 buckets at $2.89 = 5($2.89) = $14.45
10 brushes at $7.91 = 10($7.91) = $79.10
48 towels at $0.36 = 48($0.36) = $17..28

These three added together makes $110.83.  This leaves us $144.08-$110.83=$33.25 for the cost of the case of air fresheners.
