Answer:

Ambitious

Answer

Find out the what is the percentage of this discount .

To prove

Formula

Discount = Marked price - selling price

As given

a jar of natural peanut butter normally costs $4.00 .

it's on sale for $3.60 .

thus

Marked price = $4.00

selling price = $3.60

put in the above formula

Discount = 4.00 - 3.60

= 0.4

Formula

put the value

Discount percentage = 10%

Option (a) is correct .

Hence proved

PLEASE HELP ME I'LL MAKE YOU BRAINLIEST!!!! In 1972, federal vehicle emission standards 3.4 grams hydrocarbons released per mile

AURORKA [14]

<h3>Answer: Approximately -0.0742857 grams per year</h3>

======================================================

Work Shown:

x = year

y = amount of hydrocarbon emissions in grams, per mile driven

m = rate of change = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (0.8 - 3.4)/(2007 - 1972)

m = -2.6/35

m = -0.0742857 approximately

The approximate rate of change is about -0.0742857 grams per year. The negative rate of change indicates the per mile hydrocarbon amount has gone down by about 0.0742857 grams each year.

Consider the function g(x) = (x-e)^3e^-(x-e). Find all critical points and points of inflection (x, g(x)) of the function g.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The answer is " $cirtical\ points \ (x,g(x))\equiv (e,0),(e+3,\frac{27}{e^3})$ "

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$g(x) = (x-e)^3e^{-(x-e)}$

Find critical points:

$g(x) = (x-e)^3e^{(e-x)}$

differentiate the value with respect of x:

$\to g'(x)= (x-e)^3 \frac{d}{dx}e^{e-r} +e^{e-r} \frac{d}{dx}(x-e)^3=(x-e)^2 e^{(e-x)} [-x+e+3]$

critical points $g'(x)=0$

$\to (x-e)^2 e^{(e-x)} [e+3-x]=0\\\\\to e^{(e-x)}\neq 0 \\\\\to (x-e)^2=0\\\\ \to [e+3-x]=0\\\\\to x=e\\\\\to x=e+3\\\\\to x= e,e+3$

So,

The critical points of $(x,g(x))\equiv (e,0),(e+3,\frac{27}{e^3})$

Find the solution of the system of equations.<br><br> x-y=-3<br>-8x+y=45

mezya [45]

Answer:

x = 17, y = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate for x in "x - y = -3, -8":

x - y+y = -3, -8+y

x = -11 + y

2. Substitute "x = -11 + y" in for x in the second expression:

-11 + y + y = 45

3. Simplify:

-11 + 2y = 45

4. Isolate y:

-11+11 +2y = 45+11

2y = 56

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{56}{2}$

y = 28

5. Substitute the new y-value into the first equation:

x = -11 + 28

x = 17

hope this helps!
