25.99 \times  \frac{25}{100}  = 6.4975 \: or \: 6.5

thus meaning that $6.5 will be removed.

25.99 - 6.5 = 19.49

the price before tax is now $19.49 or 19.5

now for the tax

19.49 \times 6\% = 1.1694 \: or \: 1.2

now we add

19.49 + 1.2 = 20.69

your total is $20.7

On a certain​ river, a paddleboat travels 12 miles upstream ​(against the​ current) in the same amount of time it travels 20 mil
marin [14]

Given :

a paddle boat travels  upstream = 12 miles

a paddle boat travels  downstream = 20 miles

speed of the current = 2 miles per ​hour

Let the speed of the boat =x

Let the time taken = t

We know the distance for upstream D= (boat speed - current speed) * time

the distance for downstream D= (boat speed + current speed) * time

Plug in all the values and variables in the distance

For upstream 12 = (x-2)t, then t = \frac{12}{x-2}

For downstream 20 = (x+2)t then t = \frac{20}{x+2}

we got two equations for t, equate it and solve for x

\frac{12}{x-2} = \frac{20}{x+2}

Cross multiply it

12(x+2) = 20(x-2)

12x + 24 = 20x - 40 (subtract 12x  and add 40 on both sides)

64 = 8x

x= 8

the speed of the boat in still water = 8 miles per hour

True or false? in order to inscribe a circle in a triangle, the circle's center must be placed at the circumcenter of the triang
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

<h2>False.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A inscribe circle in a triangle means to draw the biggest circle possible inside such triangle. To do that perfectly, we first have to find the incenter of the circle, which is the intersection of all three internal bisector of the triangle, that point is the center of the inscribed circle.

Therefore, the statement is false.

In addition, a circumcenter allow to perfectly draw a circumscribed circle, which is outside the triangle, which is not the case here.

An image showing the inscribed circle is attached.

Find the solution of the square root of the quantity of x plus 2 plus 4 equals 8, and determine if it is an extraneous solution
Iteru [2.4K]

Consider the equation:

\sqrt{x+2}+4 = 8

Subtracting '4' from both the sides of the equation, we get as

\sqrt{x+2}+4-4= 8-4

\sqrt{x+2}= 4

Squaring on both the sides of the equation, we get

(\sqrt{x+2})^2 = (4)^2

x+2 = 16

Subtracting '2' from both the sides of the equation, we get

x+2-2=16-2

x=14

Since, An extraneous solution is a solution that arises from the solving process that is not really a solution at all. But, in this equation x=14 is the solution of the given equation.

Hence, it is not an extraneous solution.

Find the derivative of the following functions: a. f(x) = (x^3 + 5)^1/4 - 15e^x^3 b. f(x) = (x - 3)^2 (x - 5)/(x - 4)^2(x^2 + 3)
Darya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is

(a)F(x)=\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{0.25}-15e^{x^{3}}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=0.25\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{-0.75}\frac{\mathrm{d} x^{3}}{\mathrm{d} x}-15e^{x^{3}}\frac{\mathrm{d} x^{3}}{\mathrm{d} x}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=0.25\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{-0.75}\times 3x^{2}-15e^{x^{3}}\times \left ( 3x^{2}\right )

(b)F(x)=\frac{\left ( x-3\right )^2\left ( x-5\right )}{\left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^{2}+3\right )^5}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=\frac{\left [ 2\left ( x-3\right )\right \left ( x-5\right )+\left ( x-3\right )^2]\left [ \left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^2+3\right )^5\right ]-\left [ 2\left ( x-4\right )^{3}\left ( x^2+3\right )^5+5\left ( x^2+3\right )^4\left ( 2x\right )\left ( x-4\right )^2\right ]\left [ \left ( x-3\right )^2\left ( x-5\right )\right ]}{\left [\left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^2+3\right )^5\right ]^2}
