Answer:

Lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.

Step-by-step explanation:

A lady buys total number of trinkets = 20

Cost of each trinket is either $0.30 or $0.65.

Let the number of trinkets is x she purchased for $0.30 and y for $0.65

Then x + y = 20 --------(1)

Since she spends total amount = $8.80

Then the equation will be

0.30x + 0.65y = 8.80 ---------(2)

We replace x = (20 - y) from equation (1) to equation (2)

0.30(20 - y) + 0.65y = 8.80

6 - 0.30y + 0.65y = 8.80

0.35y + 6 = 8.80

0.35y = 8.80 - 6

0.35y = 2.80

y = \frac{2.80}{0.35}

y = 8

Now we put y = 8 in equation (1)

x + 8 = 20

x = 20 - 8

x = 12

Therefore, lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.

If y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4
alexira [117]

Answer:

y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^4

y'=[\frac{d}{dx}(x^2-4)^5](3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5[\frac{d}{dx}(3x+4)^4]

y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+(x^2-4)^5(12(3x+4)^3)

y'=10x(x^2-4)^4(3x+4)^4+12(x^2-4)^5(3x+4)^3

y'=2(3x+4)^3(x^2-4)^4(21x^2+20x-24)
