The number of cars at a car dealership is reduced by 10% in the first sales quarter of the year. If the number of cars decreased an additional 20% over the second sales quarter of the year, then by what percent did the number of cars decrease over the two sales quarters? A) 25% B) 28% C) 30% D) 45% ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B) 28%

=================

Let the initial price be x.

After the first sales quarter the price is reduced by 10% and became:

x - 10% = x - 0.1x = 0.9x

After the second sales quarter the price is reduced by 20% and became:

0.9x - 20% = 0.9x - 0.2*0.9x = 0.9x - 0.18x = 0.72x

The decrease over the two quarters is:

x - 0.72x = 0.28x

This is equivalent of 28%, hence the correct answer choice is B.

value of (g .h)(2) = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

function operations: Functions with overlapping domains can be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided. If f(x) and g(x) are two functions, then for all x in the domain of both functions we can find the sum, difference, product and quotient

given :

g([tex]x[/tex]) = [tex]2x[/tex]

h([tex]x[/tex]) = [tex]3x^2[/tex]

we know that ;

(g + h)([tex]x[/tex]) = g([tex]x[/tex]) + h([tex]x[/tex])

              =  [tex]2x[/tex]  + [tex]3x^2[/tex]

similarly;

(g - h)([tex]x[/tex]) = g([tex]x[/tex]) - h([tex]x[/tex])

             =  [tex]2x[/tex] - [tex]3x^2[/tex]

now,  

(g . h)([tex]x[/tex]) = 2([tex]3x^2\\[/tex])

             = 6[tex]x^2\\[/tex]

for (g .h)(2) = 6([tex]2^2[/tex])

                  = 6 × 4

                  = 24

The following lots of Commodity Z were available for sale during the year.

What is the ending inventory balance at the end of the year according to the FIFO method?

Answers

According to the FIFO method, the ending inventory balance for Commodity Z is $1,405

How much inventory is left under FIFO?

FIFO means that earlier inventory is sold first and later inventory would be the last goods left.

Since there were 23 units left, all 16 units from the last purchase and 7 units from the second purchase would be available:

= (16 x 62) + (7 x 59)

= 992 + 413

= $1,405

(i) The Maclaurin's series is:

1 ₊ x ₊ x²/2! . 1 ₋ 3x⁴/4! ₊ ...........

(ii) Integral of limit o to 1∫ e^sinx is 0

Maclaurin's expansion is as follows:

y(x) = y₀ ₊ x y₁(0) ₊ x²/2! y₂(0) ₊ x³/3! y₃(0) ₊ ........

y = e^sinx

y(0) = e^sin0

y(0) = 1

Differentiate y with respect to x

y₁(x) = e^sinx . cos x

y₁(0) = 1 [i.e y₁ = cosx.y]

y₁(0) = 1

Differentiate y₁ with respect to x

y₂(x) = cosc . y₁ ₋ sinx . y

∴ y₂(0) = 1 ₋ 0 = 1

Differentiate y₂ with respect to x

y₃ = cosx . y₂ ₋ (2 sinx ₊ cosx)y₁

y₃(0) = 1 ₋(0 ₊ 1)1

y₃(0) = 0

Differentiate y₃ with respect to x

y₄ = cosx . y₃ sinx . y₃ ₋ (2sinx ₊ cosx)y₂ ₋ (2cos x ₋ sinx) y₁

y₄(0) = 0 ₋ (3 . 0 ₊ 1)1 ₋ (2 ₋ o) 1

y₄(0) = -3

∴ From maclaurin's equation we get:

e^sinx = 1 ₊ x . 1 ₊ x²/2! . 1 ₊ x³/3! (0) ₊ x⁴/4! (₋3) ₊ ....

           =1 ₊ x ₊ x²/2! . 1 ₋ 3x⁴/4! ₊ ...........

Hence we get the the series expansion as 1 ₊ x ₊ x²/2! . 1 ₋ 3x⁴/4! ₊ ...........

(ii) limit 0 to 1∫e^sinx

integration formula ∫e^x dx = e^x + c

                    limit 0 to 1 ∫e^sinx = [e^sinx + c ]limit 0 to 1

                                                 = e^sin0 ₋ e^sin1

                                                 = 1 ₋ 1

x=+5√2
no real solution

Answers

No real solution is the answer

The solutions to the quadratic equation 50 - x² = 0 are x = ±5√2.

What is quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax2+bx+c=0. with a ≠ 0 .

The solution(s) to the quadratic equation 50 - x² = 0 can be found by setting the equation equal to zero and solving for x.

50 - x² = 0

To solve this equation, we can rearrange it as follows:

x² = 50

Taking the square root of both sides, we have:

x = ±√50

Simplifying the square root of 50, we get:

x = ±√(25 × 2)

x = ±√25 × √2

x = ±5√2

Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic equation 50 - x² = 0 are x = ±5√2.
