(xy=x times y just fyi)
bought bike for 368.9
this was including sales tax of 8.5%
(percent means part out of 100 so 8.5%=8.5/100=0.85/10= 0.085/1 1=0.085)
so paid=price+tax
paid=368.9
price=p
tax=p times 8.5%=0.085
368.9=p+p times 0.085
368.9=p+0.085p
or
p+0.085p=368.9
the answer is C
Although the question's print is not clear, to the best of my knowledge, as I can see, We are given that:
and 
No, we know that, by definition:


Thus, for the functions r and s which are defined for all real numbers x, the answer to the question asked is:

Answer:
y"(2, 1) = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define implicit differentiation
5 - y² = x²
Step 2: Find dy/dx
- Take implicit differentiation: -2yy' = 2x
- Isolate y': y' = 2x/-2y
- Isolate y': y' = -x/y
Step 3: Find d²y/dx²
- Quotient Rule: y'' = [y(-1) - y'(-x)] / y²
- Substitute y': y" = [-y - (-x/y)(-x)] / y²
- Simplify: y" = [-y - x²/y] / y²
- Multiply top/bottom by y: y" = (-y² - x²) / y³
- Factor negative: y" = -(y² + x²) / y³
Step 4: Substitute and Evaluate
y"(2, 1) = -(1² + 2²) / 1³
y"(2, 1) = -(1 + 4) / 1
y"(2, 1) = -5/1
y"(2, 1) = -5
