Mathematics

Misha Larkins [42]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>The sale price of the washing machine is £207.50.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages </u>

To find a percentage of a given number, the procedure is multiplying the percentage by the number and divide by 100.

Suppose the normal price of the washing machine was x before the discount. The discount is:

17% of x = 17/100 * x = 0.17x

This discount is given as £42.50, thus:

0.17x = £42.50

Solving:

x = £42.50/0.17

x = £250

The sale price is:

£250 - £42.50 = £207.50

The sale price of the washing machine is £207.50.

The table represents a function.
Elenna [48]

f(5) is -8 ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Function is a relation between set of of ordered pairs (x , y),and every x has only one y

Examples:

  • {(-1 , 2) , (2 , 4) , (5 , -3)} is a function because x = -1 has only y = 2, x = 2 has only y = 4 and x = 5 has only y = -3
  • {(-2 , 4) , (0 , -1) , (-2 , 5)} is not a function because x = -2 has y = 4 and 5

The notation of the function is f(x) = y

The table:

→    x     :    f(x)

→    -4    :    -2

→    -1     :    5

→     3    :    4

→     5    :   -8

From the table

∵ x = -4

- The corresponding value of y to x = -4 is -2

∴ f(-4) = -2

∵ x = -1

- The corresponding value of y to x = -1 is 5

∴ f(-1) = 5

∵ x = 3

- The corresponding value of y to x = 3 is 4

∴ f(3) = 4

∵ x = 5

- The corresponding value of y to x = 5 is -8

∴ f(5) =-8

f(5) is -8

What is an easy way to factor and equation like 2x^2-5x+3, without using the British method?
gladu [14]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

I learned this easy way to complete the sqare in the fastest way possible

First you want to get it to x^2. So the first thing you would do is divide the entire equation by 2 to get 2(x^2 -5/2x +3/2). then you do one half of b or in this case -5/2. That would make -5/4. you would put this into the factor.

2( x -5/4 +    ) ( x -5/4 -      )

Then you square that number (-5/4)

That makes 25/16. you take that number and subtract the last number or the constant, c to make 1/16. now to finish it up you square root that number. the squre root of 1/16 is 1/4. then you put that into the last part of the factor.

2( x -5/4 + 1/4) ( x -5/4 - 1/4)

Then you simplify

(x-1) 2(x-3/2)

(x-1) (2x-3)

now to make sure I am correct, I will re-multiply it out

2x^2 -5x + 3
