Remember that if there is a 25% discount, then the amount you are paying represents 75%. We know the original price (ie 100%)
There are several methods.
Simplest: Find 25% of the$40 and subtract to find the price to be paid.

=
25
100

=

price =

Second method. Find 75% immediately

You can do any percentage question using the concept of direct proportion.

if $40 is 100%, how much is 75%?

The equations of two lines are x - 3y = 6 and y = 3x + 2. determine if the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither.parallel

Mice21 [21]

Start by converting x - 3y = 6 into slope-intercept form:
x - 3y = 6
Subtract x from both sides:
-3y = -x + 6
Divide both sides by -3:
y = (1/3)x - 2
Now compare both equations:
y = (1/3)x - 2
y = 3x + 2
They don't share anything perpendicular or parallel equations would share, so therefore they are neither.

Hope this helps! :)

Find a closed-form solution to the integral equation y(x) = 3 + Z x e dt ty(t) , x > 0. In other words, express y(x) as a fun

MrMuchimi

Answer:

$y{x} = \sqrt{7+2Inx}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y(x)= 3 + \int\limits^x_e {dx}/ \, ty(t) , x>0}$

Let say; By y(x)= y(e)

we have;

$y(e)= 3 + \int\limits^e_e {dt}/ \, ty= 3+0$

Using Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and differentiating by Lebiniz Rule:

$y^{1} (x) = 0 + 1/ xy$

$y^{1} = 1/xy$

dy/dx = 1/xy

$\int\limits {y} \, dxy = \int\limits \, dx/x$

$y^{2}/2 Inx + C$

RECALL: y(e) = 3

$(3)^{2} / 2 = In (e) + C$

$\frac{9}{2} =In(e)+C$

$\frac{9}{2} - 1 = C$

$\frac{7}{2} = C$

$y^{2} / 2 = In x +C$

$y^{2} / 2 = In x +7/2$

MULTIPLYING BOTH SIDE BY 2 , TO ELIMINATE THE DENOMINATOR, WE HAVE;

$y^{2} = {7+2Inx}$

$y{x} = \sqrt{7+2Inx}$

Can someone help me with the areas?

9966 [12]

Answer:

for 1. it is 99 and for 3. it is 343.75

Step-by-step explanation:

for 1. you have to just multiply the length with width

for 3. you have to add both bases (35+20) and multiply the height (55 x 12.5) to it and then divide it by 2 (687.5 / 2)

hope this helps! please heart <3

Point Q is the center of dilation. Lines segment S U is dilated to form line segment S prime U prime. The length of Q S is 3 .2

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dilation rule is $D_{Q,2.5}$ . It means the center of dilatation is point Q and scale factor is 2.5.

Scale factor is the ratio of distance from center to the image of a point and distance from center to the corresponding point.

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{QU'}{QU}$

It is given that QU=4 and scale factor = 2.5.

$2.5=\dfrac{QU'}{4}$

Multiply both sides by 4.

$2.5\times 4=QU'$

$10=QU'$

We know that

$UU'=QU'-QU$

$UU'=10-4$

$UU'=6$

The distance between U' and U is 6 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
