That's a question about percentage.

One way to represent percentage is using decimal number. In this way, 1 is equivalent to 100% and the other less percentages using numbers between 0 and 1.

Examples:

90% is equivalent to 0,90.
5% is equivalent to 0.05. It's not 0.5 because 0.5 is equivalent to 50%.
13.17% is equivalent to 0.1317.
245% is equivalent to 2.45.

If we want to know the percentage of a number, we should multiplacate the number by the porcentage in the decimal number form.

Examples:

55.90% of 200 is equal to: $200 \times 0.5590 = 111.8$

360% of 88 is equal to: $88\times 3.6 = 316.8$

In our problem, we have a phone with a increase of 7%. To solve that, it's important to perceive that $230 is equal to 100% and with a increase of 7%, we will pay 107%.

107% in the decimal number form is 1.07. With that information, we should multiplicate 1.07 by the original value and we will find the answer.

We know that $230\times 1.07 = 246.1$ , therefore, the total cost of the phone after tax is $246.1.

I hope I've helped. :D

Can someone check whether its correct or no? this is supposed to be the steps in integration by parts

Gwar [14]

Answer:

$\displaystyle - \int \dfrac{\sin(2x)}{e^{2x}}\: \text{d}x=\dfrac{\sin(2x)}{4e^{2x}}+\dfrac{\cos(2x)}{4e^{2x}}+\text{C}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5 cm}\underline{Integration by parts} \\\\$\displaystyle \int u \dfrac{\text{d}v}{\text{d}x}\:\text{d}x=uv-\int v\: \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}\:\text{d}x$ \\ \end{minipage}}$

Given integral:

$\displaystyle -\int \dfrac{\sin(2x)}{e^{2x}}\:\text{d}x$

$\textsf{Rewrite }\dfrac{1}{e^{2x}} \textsf{ as }e^{-2x} \textsf{ and bring the negative inside the integral}:$

$\implies \displaystyle \int -e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x$

Using integration by parts:

$\textsf{Let }\:u=\sin (2x) \implies \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}=2 \cos (2x)$

$\textsf{Let }\:\dfrac{\text{d}v}{\text{d}x}=-e^{-2x} \implies v=\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}$

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}\implies \displaystyle -\int e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x & =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\sin (2x)- \int \dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x} \cdot 2 \cos (2x)\:\text{d}x\\\\& =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\sin (2x)- \int e^{-2x} \cos (2x)\:\text{d}x\end{aligned}$

$\displaystyle \textsf{For }\:-\int e^{-2x} \cos (2x)\:\text{d}x \quad \textsf{integrate by parts}:$

$\textsf{Let }\:u=\cos(2x) \implies \dfrac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}x}=-2 \sin(2x)$

$\textsf{Let }\:\dfrac{\text{d}v}{\text{d}x}=-e^{-2x} \implies v=\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}$

$\begin{aligned}\implies \displaystyle -\int e^{-2x}\cos(2x)\:\text{d}x & =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\cos(2x)- \int \dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x} \cdot -2 \sin(2x)\:\text{d}x\\\\& =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\cos(2x)+ \int e^{-2x} \sin(2x)\:\text{d}x\end{aligned}$

Therefore:

$\implies \displaystyle -\int e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\sin (2x) +\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\cos(2x)+ \int e^{-2x} \sin(2x)\:\text{d}x$

$\textsf{Subtract }\: \displaystyle \int e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x \quad \textsf{from both sides and add the constant C}:$

$\implies \displaystyle -2\int e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x =\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\sin (2x) +\dfrac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\cos(2x)+\text{C}$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\implies \displaystyle -\int e^{-2x}\sin(2x)\:\text{d}x =\dfrac{1}{4}e^{-2x}\sin (2x) +\dfrac{1}{4}e^{-2x}\cos(2x)+\text{C}$

Rewrite in the same format as the given integral:

$\displaystyle \implies - \int \dfrac{\sin(2x)}{e^{2x}}\: \text{d}x=\dfrac{\sin(2x)}{4e^{2x}}+\dfrac{\cos(2x)}{4e^{2x}}+\text{C}$
