Answer:

if x is the amount =100%

then to decrease the amount by 37% =(100-37)% = 63% of x =x*63/100 =x*0.63

multiply the amount by 0.63

On moving day, Jorge needs to rent a truck. The length of the cargo space is 12 ft, and the height is 1 ft less than the width.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

12ft $\times$ 7ft $\times$ 6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that truck can hold = 504 $ft^{3}$ i.e.

Volume, V = 504 $ft^{3}$

Length of cargo space = 12 ft

Let width of cargo space = w ft

As per question statement:

Let height of cargo space = (w-1) ft

To find: The Dimensions of Cargo Space

Formula for Volume of Cargo Space:

V = Length $\times$ Width $\times$ Height

Putting the given values and conditions:

504 = 12 $\times$ $w \times (w-1)$

$\Rightarrow w(w-1) = \dfrac{504}{12}\\\Rightarrow w^{2} -w = 42\\\Rightarrow w^{2} -w - 42=0\\\Rightarrow w^{2} -7w +6w -42 =0\\\Rightarrow w(w -7) +6(w -7) =0\\\Rightarrow (w -7)(w+6) = 0\\\Rightarrow w =7, -6$

Dimensions can not be negative, so width, w = 7 ft

Height = (w-1) = 7-1 = 6 ft

So, the dimensions are 12ft $\times$ 7ft $\times$ 6ft.

Find the derivative of ln(secx+tanx)

————————

Find the derivative of

$\mathsf{y=\ell n(sec\,x+tan\,x)}\\\\\\ \mathsf{y=\ell n\!\left(\dfrac{1}{cos\,x}+\dfrac{sin\,x}{cos\,x} \right )}\\\\\\ \mathsf{y=\ell n\!\left(\dfrac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x} \right )}$

You can treat y as a composite function of x:

$\left\{\! \begin{array}{l} \mathsf{y=\ell n\,u}\\\\ \mathsf{u=\dfrac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x}} \end{array} \right.$

so use the chain rule to differentiate y:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{dy}{du}\cdot \dfrac{du}{dx}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{d}{du}(\ell n\,u)\cdot \dfrac{d}{dx}\!\left(\dfrac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x}\right)}$

The first derivative is 1/u, and the second one can be evaluated by applying the quotient rule:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{\frac{d}{dx}(1+sin\,x)\cdot cos\,x-(1+sin\,x)\cdot \frac{d}{dx}(cos\,x)}{(cos\,x)^2}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{(0+cos\,x)\cdot cos\,x-(1+sin\,x)\cdot (-\,sin\,x)}{(cos\,x)^2}}$

Multiply out those terms in parentheses:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{cos\,x\cdot cos\,x+(sin\,x+sin\,x\cdot sin\,x)}{(cos\,x)^2}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{cos^2\,x+sin\,x+sin^2\,x}{(cos\,x)^2}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{(cos^2\,x+sin^2\,x)+sin\,x}{(cos\,x)^2}\qquad\quad (but~~cos^2\,x+sin^2\,x=1)}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{u}\cdot \dfrac{1+sin\,x}{(cos\,x)^2}}$

Substitute back for $\mathsf{u=\dfrac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x}:}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{~\frac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x}~}\cdot \dfrac{1+sin\,x}{(cos\,x)^2}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{cos\,x}{1+sin\,x}\cdot \dfrac{1+sin\,x}{(cos\,x)^2}}$

Simplifying that product, you get

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{1+sin\,x}\cdot \dfrac{1+sin\,x}{cos\,x}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{cos\,x}}$

∴ $\boxed{\begin{array}{c}\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{dx}=sec\,x} \end{array}}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the answer.}$

I hope this helps. =)

A study analyzed the average yearly salt intake in the United States from 2012 thru 2017. The data is summarized in the table:

Ugo [173]

Answer:Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

Step-by-step explanation: Let

x ---> the number of years since 2012

f(x) ---> is the total amount of salt ingested in grams

we have

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form

where

The slope is equal to

The y-intercept or initial value is equal to

The y-intercept is the value of the function f(x) when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context, the y-intercept is the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012

The exact value of the average amount of grams of salt ingested in the year 2012 is 3,554 grams (see the data in the table)

Compare the exact value with the y-intercept

therefore

3,548 grams Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

Of all 25 marbles in a bag, 3 of the marbles

Tom [10]

Answer:

You have a 12% chance of pulling out a white marble

Step-by-step explanation:

Their is 25 marbles in the bag and you have 3 out of 25 chance of pulling out a white marble. 3/25=0.12 so you have a 12% chance of pulling out a white marble.

This equation shows how the total amount of paper Scott's office has recycled depends on the number of weeks since they started

Elodia [21]

Answer:

1 week

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p = 12w

Where,

w = number of weeks the office has been on the new recycling plan

p = total kilograms of paper recycled.

How many weeks will it take Scott's office to recycle a total of 12 kilograms of paper?

Find w when p = 12

p = 12w

12 = 12w

Divide both sides by 12

w = 12/12

= 1

w = 1 week
