Answer:

5/4 P dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

price of pony = P

Tax which is to added in the total price of pony = 25% of pony price

so, now total price of pony including its tax = P + 25%P

= P + 25/100 P

= P + 1/4 P

= 5/4 P dollars

= 1.25 P dollars

Answer:

1.25p in dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of the pony is the sum of the cost of the pony and the tax on the pony. The tax is the product of the tax rate and the cost of the pony.

Given that the price of the pony is p and the tax rate applied is 25 %,

The tax

= 25% * p

= 0.25p

Total amount paid

= p + 0.25p

= 1.25p in dollar

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}h$

Employ a standard trick used in proving the chain rule:

$\dfrac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}h$

The limit of a product is the product of limits, i.e. we can write

$\displaystyle\left(\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}\right)\cdot\left(\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}h\right)$

The rightmost limit is an exercise in differentiating $\sqrt x$ using the definition, which you probably already know is $\dfrac1{2\sqrt x}$ .

For the leftmost limit, we make a substitution $y=\sqrt x$ . Now, if we make a slight change to $x$ by adding a small number $h$ , this propagates a similar small change in $y$ that we'll call $h'$ , so that we can set $y+h'=\sqrt{x+h}$ . Then as $h\to0$ , we see that it's also the case that $h'\to0$ (since we fix $y=\sqrt x$ ). So we can write the remaining limit as

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}=\lim_{h'\to0}\frac{\tan(y+h')-\tan y}{y+h'-y}=\lim_{h'\to0}\frac{\tan(y+h')-\tan y}{h'}$

which in turn is the derivative of $\tan y$ , another limit you probably already know how to compute. We'd end up with $\sec^2y$ , or $\sec^2\sqrt x$ .

So we find that

$\dfrac{\mathrm d\tan\sqrt x}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\sec^2\sqrt x}{2\sqrt x}$

Factor to find the zeros of the function:

enyata [817]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8x² + 8x - 96

y = 8(x² + x - 12)

y = 8(x + 4)(x - 3)

When y = 0, 8(x + 4)(x - 3) = 0.

=> x = -4 or x = 3. (B)

What is the equation of a quadratic function P with rational coefficients that

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

$P(x) = x^2-6x+58$

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic function is function of the form $P(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ where a, b and c are real numbers and $a\neq 0$

A number is said to be a rational number if it can be written in the form $\frac{u}{v}$ where u and v are integers and $v\neq 0$ .

A number is said to be a complex number if it can be written in the form u+iv where u and v are real numbers.

A number 'a' is said to be a zero of a function P(x) if $P(a)=0$

We know that if zero of a fraction is of form u+iv then its other zero is u-iv.

As 3+7i is a zero of the function, 3-7i is also its zero.

So, given equation is $\left ( x-(3-7i) \right )\left ( x-(3+7i) \right )$

$P(x)=\left ( x-(3-7i) \right )\left ( x-(3+7i) \right )\\=x^2-x(3+7i)-x(3-7i)+(3-7i)(3+7i)\\=x^2-3x-7ix-3x+7ix+9+49\\=x^2-6x+58$
