Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

24.95 x 25%=6.23

24.94 - 6.23 = 18.72

25.80 x 30% = 7.74

25.80 - 7.74 = 18.06

18.72 -18 .06 = 0.66

For this case we have:

Store 1:

We propose the following rule of three:

24.95 -----------> 100%

x -------------------> 25%

Where the variable x represents the discount amount:

x = \frac {25 * 24.95} {100}\\x = 6.2375

Thus, the price of the ball is:

24.95-6.2375 = 18.7125

Store 2:

We propose the following rule of three:

25.80 -----------> 100%

x -------------------> 30%

Where the variable x represents the discount amount:

x = \frac {30 * 25.80} {100}\\x = 7.74

Thus, the price of the ball is:

25.80-7.74 = 18.06

Thus, the price difference is:

18.7125-18.06 = 0.6525

ANswer:

0.6525

Find the area between the graph of the function and the x-axis over the given interval, if possible.
vodomira [7]

Answer:

A= -\frac{5}{-1} - \lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{5}{x-2} = 5-0 = 5

So then the integral converges and the area below the curve and the x axis would be 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the area between the function and the x axis we need to solve the following integral:

A = \int_{-\infty}^1 \frac{5}{(x-2)^2}

For this case we can use the following substitution u = x-2 and we have dx = du

A = \int_{a}^b \frac{5}{u^2} du = 5\int_{a}^b u^{-2}du

And if we solve the integral we got:

A= -\frac{5}{u} \Big|_a^b

And we can rewrite the expression again in terms of x and we got:

A = -\frac{5}{x-2} \Big|_{-\infty}^1

And we can solve this using the fundamental theorem of calculus like this:

A= -\frac{5}{-1} - \lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{5}{x-2} = 5-0 = 5

So then the integral converges and the area below the curve and the x axis would be 5.
