Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the past exam mark m,

m*105%=84

m*105/100=84

m=84/(105/100)

m=80

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

new value = 84

old value = n

can use percent change formula: (new value - old value) / old value = 5/100

$\frac{84-n}{n}$ = $\frac{5}{100}$

cross-multiply (you can simplify 5/100 to be 1/20 first): 20(84 - n) = n

1680 - 20n = n

1680 = 21n

n = 80

What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle if each of the two legs is 4 units? square root of 8 units 4 units squa

ycow [4]

By the Pythagoras theorem, in a right triangle with the sides being a and b,

a² + b² = Hypotenuse²

Hypotenuse² = 4² + 4²

Hypotenuse² = 16 + 16 = 2*16

Hypotenuse = √2 * √16

Thus, hypotenuse = 4√2

What amount of money do you have if you have 5 pennies, 13 nickels, 14 dimes, 2 quarters, and one 5 dollar bill?

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$7.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Penny = $0.01
Nickel = $0.05
Dime = $0.10
Quarter = $0.25

( 5 × 0.01 ) + ( 13 × 0.05 ) + ( 14 × 0.10 ) + ( 2 × 0.25 ) + 5

-The 5 at the end represents the one five dollar bill.

Simplified: (solve what is in the parenthesis)

0.05 + 0.65 + 1.4 + 0.50 + 5 = $7.60

can someone show me how to find the general solution of the differential equations? really need to know how to do it for the upc

mariarad [96]

The first equation is linear:

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-y=x^2\sin x$

Divide through by $x^2$ to get

$\dfrac1x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-\dfrac1{x^2}y=\sin x$

and notice that the left hand side can be consolidated as a derivative of a product. After doing so, you can integrate both sides and solve for $y$ .

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1xy\right]=\sin x$
$\implies\dfrac1xy=\displaystyle\int\sin x\,\mathrm dx=-\cos x+C$
$\implies y=-x\cos x+Cx$

The second equation is also linear:

$x^2y'+x(x+2)y=e^x$

Multiply both sides by $e^x$ to get

$x^2e^xy'+x(x+2)e^xy=e^{2x}$

and recall that $(x^2e^x)'=2xe^x+x^2e^x=x(x+2)e^x$ , so we can write

$(x^2e^xy)'=e^{2x}$
$\implies x^2e^xy=\displaystyle\int e^{2x}\,\mathrm dx=\frac12e^{2x}+C$
$\implies y=\dfrac{e^x}{2x^2}+\dfrac C{x^2e^x}$

- - -

Yet another linear ODE:

$\cos x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sin x\,y=1$

Divide through by $\cos^2x$ , giving

$\dfrac1{\cos x}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos^2x}y=\dfrac1{\cos^2x}$
$\sec x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sec x\tan x\,y=\sec^2x$
$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}[\sec x\,y]=\sec^2x$
$\implies\sec x\,y=\displaystyle\int\sec^2x\,\mathrm dx=\tan x+C$
$\implies y=\cos x\tan x+C\cos x$
$y=\sin x+C\cos x$

In case the steps where we multiply or divide through by a certain factor weren't clear enough, those steps follow from the procedure for finding an integrating factor. We start with the linear equation

$a(x)y'(x)+b(x)y(x)=c(x)$

then rewrite it as

$y'(x)=\dfrac{b(x)}{a(x)}y(x)=\dfrac{c(x)}{a(x)}\iff y'(x)+P(x)y(x)=Q(x)$

The integrating factor is a function $\mu(x)$ such that

$\mu(x)y'(x)+\mu(x)P(x)y(x)=(\mu(x)y(x))'$

which requires that

$\mu(x)P(x)=\mu'(x)$

This is a separable ODE, so solving for $\mu$ we have

$\mu(x)P(x)=\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mathrm dx}\iff\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mu(x)}=P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\ln|\mu(x)|=\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\mu(x)=\exp\left(\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx\right)$

and so on.
