Answer:

Less than 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the difference of the two numbers: 1,207 - 957 = 250

decrease = original number - new number

2. Then, divide the decrease by the original number

250/1,207 = 0.207

3. Multiply the answer by 100 to get the percentage

0.207 x 100 = 20.7%

Therefore, the number of people fell by 20.7%

Hence, the answer is less than 25%

Find gradient <br><br>xe^y + 4 ln y = x² at (1, 1)​
cricket20 [7]

xe^y+4\ln y=x^2

Differentiate both sides with respect to <em>x</em>, assuming <em>y</em> = <em>y</em>(<em>x</em>).

\dfrac{\mathrm d(xe^y+4\ln y)}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}

\dfrac{\mathrm d(xe^y)}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac{\mathrm d(4\ln y)}{\mathrm dx}=2x

\dfrac{\mathrm d(x)}{\mathrm dx}e^y+x\dfrac{\mathrm d(e^y)}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac4y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x

e^y+xe^y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac4y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x

Solve for d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> :

e^y+\left(xe^y+\dfrac4y\right)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x

\left(xe^y+\dfrac4y\right)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x-e^y

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2x-e^y}{xe^y+\frac4y}

If <em>y</em> ≠ 0, we can write

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2xy-ye^y}{xye^y+4}

At the point (1, 1), the derivative is

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\bigg|_{x=1,y=1}=\boxed{\dfrac{2-e}{e+4}}

Solve for x:<br><br>5/7 = 4x/83​
Simora [160]

Step-by-step explanation:

\to  \dfrac{5}{7}  =  \dfrac{4x}{83}

By cross multiplication,

→ 83(5) = 4x(7)

→ 415 = 28x

<h3>→ 415/28 = x</h3>
