Answer:

The % increase is 7.179 but see the remark I made below. What I have given and what it could be is a rounding error. Less than 2 dollars error is not much when you are calculating something for someone just to show them how to do it.

Step-by-step explanation:

242,555 * x/100 = 259,970 Multiply by 100

242,555 * x = 259970 * 100

242,555 * x = 25997000 Divide by 242555

x = 24997000/242444

x = 107.179

That's the total increase.

What you want is 7.179%

If you take 7.179% of 242,555 and add it onto 242555 you should get 259,970

7.1797/100 * 242555 = 17413.02

17413.02 + 242555 = 259968.02

Why isn't it exact. I'm out just about 2 whole dollars. The reason is that the % isn't exact. It's only out to 3 decimal places which apparently is not enough. You can go over my numbers if you want more exactness us use something that is rounded to 7.180 if you like.

Find the inverse of the function x2 + y2 = 4 and the domain of the inverse for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2.

alexandr402 [8]

To get the inverse "relation" of an expression, we first off, do a quick switcharoo of the variables, and then solve for "y", so let's proceed,

$\bf x^2+y^2=4\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{y}^2+\boxed{x}^2=4
\\\\\\
y^2=4-x^2\implies y=\pm\sqrt{4-x^2}$

and yes, the domain for the range 0 ⩽ x ⩽ 2, let's get instead the "range" of the original function,

 $\bf x^2+y^2=4\implies 0^2+y^2=4\implies y=\pm\sqrt{4}\implies \boxed{y=\pm 2}
\\\\\\
x^2+y^2=4\implies 2^2+y^2=4\implies 4+y^2=4\implies \boxed{y=0}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{range of original}}{-2\le y \le 2}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{domain of its inverse}}{-2\le x \le 2}$

A 128-ounce jug of milk costs $3.20, and a 64-ounce jug of milk costs $2.24. What is the difference in cost per ounce between th

klasskru [66]

Answer:

The 64 ounce jug of milk costs $0.010 more per ounce than the 128 ounce jug of milk/

Step-by-step explanation:

3.20/128=$0.025 per ounce jug of milk

2.24/64=$0.035 per ounce jug of milk

0.035 - 0.025 = .010

How do you graph? y=−4/3x+8y

trasher [3.6K]

How do we graph anything? Make a table of values for x and y and then plot each point. After plotting each point on the xy-plane, connect each point with a straight line or curve (depending on the function).

In this case, we must first isolate y.

y = (-4/3)x + 8y

y - 8y = (-4/3)x

-7y = (-4/3)x

y = (-4/3)x ÷ (-7)

y = (4/21)x

Now follow the steps above.
