Mr. Javier purchased a number of pencils for ₱180 and sold all except 6 at a profit of ₱2 per pencil. With the total amount received, he could buy 30 more items than before. Find the number of items he bought and the cost of each in pesos

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36 pencils

[tex]Cost = 0.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cost Price = 180

Represent the number of items by x

This implies that the cost of each item is [tex]\frac{x}{180}[/tex]

[tex]Selling\ Price = Cost + Profit[/tex]

[tex]Selling\ Price = \frac{x}{180} + 2[/tex]

Since all but 6 items were sold, the total selling price is:

[tex]Total = (x - 6)(\frac{x}{180} + 2)[/tex]

This amount can be used to buy 30 more items.

So, we have:

[tex](x - 6)(\frac{x}{180} + 2) = x + 30[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 180

[tex]180 * (x - 6)(\frac{x}{180} + 2) =180(x + 30)[/tex]

[tex](x - 6)(x + 360) = 180x + 5400[/tex]

Expand brackets

[tex]x\² + 360x - 6x - 2160 = 180x + 5400[/tex]

[tex]x\² + 354x - 2160 = 180x + 5400[/tex]

Equate to 0

[tex]x\² + 354x - 180x - 2160 - 5400 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x\² + 174x - 7560 = 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x\² + 210x - 36x - 7560 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x(x + 210) - 36(x + 210) = 0[/tex]

[tex](x - 36)(x + 210) = 0[/tex]

[tex]x - 36 = 0[/tex] or [tex]x + 210 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 36[/tex] or [tex]x = -210[/tex]

Since, number of items can't be negative, we have to discard x = -210.

Hence:

[tex]x = 36[/tex]

We can then conclude that, Mr. Javier purchased 36 pencils

Recall that

[tex]Cost = \frac{x}{180}[/tex]

[tex]Cost = \frac{36}{180}[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 0.2[/tex]

Find the general solution of y''' + 9y'' + y' − 111y = 0 if it is known that y1 = e−6x cos(x) is one solution.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf{y(x) = \dfrac{(c_1 + c_2) \ cos (x)}{e^{6x} }+ \dfrac{i(c_1 -c_2) \ sin (x)}{e^{6x}}+ c_3e^{3\ x}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective of this question is to solve:

[tex]\dfrac{dy(x)}{dx}+ 9\dfrac{d^2y(dx)}{dx^2}+\dfrac{d^3y(x)}{dx^3}-111y(x) = 0 :[/tex]

Suppose the general solution is proportional to [tex]e^{\lambda x}[/tex] for [tex]\lambda[/tex] is constant; Then:

Let's replace [tex]y(x) = e^{\lambda\ x}[/tex] into the above equation:

i.e.

[tex]\dfrac{d^3}{dx^3}(e ^{\lambda x} )+ 9 \dfrac{d^2}{dx^2}(e ^{\lambda x} ) + \dfrac{d}{dx}(e ^{\lambda x} )- 111 \ e ^{\lambda x} = 0[/tex]

To Replace:

[tex]\dfrac{d^3}{dx^3}(e ^{\lambda x} )[/tex] with [tex]\lambda^3 e ^{\lambda x }[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d^2}{dx^2}(e ^{\lambda x} ) \ with \ \lambda^2 e^{\lambda\ x}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}(e ^{\lambda x} ) \ with \ \lambda e ^{\lambda \ x}[/tex]

Thus;

[tex]\lambda^3 e ^{\lambda x }[/tex] + [tex]9 \lambda^2 e^{\lambda\ x}[/tex] + [tex]\lambda e ^{\lambda \ x}[/tex] - 111 [tex]e ^{\lambda \ x}[/tex] = 0

[tex]e ^{\lambda \ x} (\lambda ^3 + 9 \lambda ^2 + \lambda - 111 )= 0[/tex]

In as much as [tex]e^{ \lambda x}\neq 0[/tex] for any finite [tex]\lambda[/tex]; Then:

[tex]\lambda ^3 + 9 \lambda ^2 + 111 = 0[/tex]

By Factorization:

[tex](\lambda - 3) ( \lambda ^2 + 12 \lambda + 37) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\lambda = -6 + i \ or\ \lambda = -6 - i \ or \ \lambda = 3[/tex]

However;

The root [tex]\lambda = -6 \pm i[/tex] yield;

[tex]y_1 = (x) = c_1 e ^ {(-6+i)x}[/tex]

[tex]y_2 (x) = c_2e^{(-6-i)x}[/tex]

The root [tex]\lambda = 3[/tex] yield;

[tex]y_3(x) = c_3 e^{3x}[/tex]

The general solution is:

[tex]y(x) = y_1(x) + y_2(x) + y_3(x) = \dfrac{c_1}{c^{(6-i)}x}+\dfrac{c_2}{c^{(6+i)}x}+ c_3e^{3x}[/tex]

Using Euler's Identity ;

[tex]e^{\alpha+i \beta} = e^\alpha \ cos (\beta ) + i \ e^\alpha \ sin ( \beta)[/tex]

[tex]y(x) = c_1 ( \dfrac{cos (x) }{e^{6x}}+ \dfrac{i \ sin x }{e^{6x} }) + c_2 ( \dfrac{cos (x)}{e^{6x}}- \dfrac{-i \ sin (x)}{e^{6x}})+c_3 e^{3x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y(x) = \dfrac{(c_1 + c_2) \ cos (x)}{e^{6x} }+ \dfrac{i(c_1 -c_2) \ sin (x)}{e^{6x}}+ c_3e^{3\ x}}[/tex]

At 7:00 one Summer morning Harry and Hermione hopped into their speedy more motorboat and left Hogwarts dock. They arrived at Dumbledore Wharf 35 minutes later. During the busy summer months a car ferry departs from Dumbledore wharf every five minutes. Tourists crowd onto the ferry for the 55 minute ride to Hogswarts dock. If Harry and Hermione followed the route that the car ferries take, how many car ferries did they see on their trip?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the car ferries start at or before 6:05, and each 5 minutes thereafter, and if we count the ferries at the dock on either end, the total number seen is the number of ferries encountered in ...

  55 +35 = 90 . . . minutes

That is, it is the number already in transit when they leave, plus the number that start while they are traveling.

That's 90/5 +1* = 19 ferries.

_____

The attached diagram can give an idea. Each up-sloping line represents a ferry in-transit. The left side is Dumbledore Wharf; the right side is Hogwarts dock. Each horizontal unit represents the distance traveled by a ferry in 5 minutes. Each vertical unit represents a 5-minute interval.

The down-sloping line represents the motorboat travel. The dots at either end of the latter line represent car ferries that are at the dock, just arriving or just-departing. Altogether, there are 17 places where the lines cross, in addition to the boats at the docks.

__

* the +1 is because the number of points defining intervals is 1 more than the number of intervals.

Find f(5). f(x) = x2 +2x

Answers

Answer:

f(5) = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

In any function f(x), x is the input and f(x) is the output

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 3, find f(a)

That means we need to find value of f(x) at x = a, so substitute x by a

f(a) = 2(a) + 3 = 2a + 3

f(a) = 2a + 3

Let us use the same way to solve our question

f(x) = x² + 2x

→ We need to find f(5), so substitute x by 5

∴ f(5) = (5)² + 2(5)

∴ f(5) = 25 + 10

→ Do addition

f(5) = 35

A migrating bird flies 688 miles in 16 hours. How many miles does it fly in 5 ​hours?

Answers

Answer:

In 5 hours, the migrating bird will frly 215 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bird flys 688 miles in 16 hours we need to find the unit rate. So i divided 16 by the 16 hours which gave me 1, so i also divided 688 by 16 and i got 43. So the bird flys 43 miles in a hour. We are not done yet because we need to find how many miles in 5 hours. So we multiply the 43 miles by 5 and got 215, and i also multiplied the 1 hour bye 5 and got 5. Last but not least, the migrating bird will fly 215 miles in 5 hours. I hope that this will help you out.

The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding.

The regular admission price for an amusement park is $72. For a group of 15, or more, the admission price is reduce by $25 per person. How many people need to be in a group to save $500?

Answers

Answer:  20 people

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

Explanation:

x = number of people

Without the discount, each person pays $72, so the total cost is 72x dollars if x people go through the gate individually.

Now applying the group discount, those x people pay 72-25 = 47 dollars each. Meaning the total cost is now 47x. Keep in mind that [tex]x \ge 15[/tex] in order for the discount to kick in.

Subtracting the two amounts leads to 72x-47x = 25x. It is not a coincidence that we get a coefficient of 25 here.

Set this equal to 500 and solve for x

25x = 500

x = 500/25

x = 20

------------

If x = 20 people attend individually, then they pay 72*x = 72*20 = 1440 dollars.

If 20 people go as one group, they pay 47x = 47*20 = 940 dollars

We have a savings of 1440-940 = 500 dollars. This confirms the answer.

All 20 people must go as one group if they want to save $500.

What is a logarithmic equation?

"A logarithmic equation is an equation that involves the logarithm of an expression containing a variable."

Given logarithmic equation

[tex]log_{10}x(\frac{9}{63} )=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]log_{10}x(\frac{1}{7} )=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]log_{10}x=\frac{1}{2}({7} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]log_{10}x=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 10^{\frac{7}{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 10^{3+\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 10^{3}[/tex] × [tex]10^{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 1000\sqrt{10}[/tex]

The value of  [tex]x = 1000\sqrt{10}[/tex]

Hence, the value of x in logarithmic equation [tex]log_{10}x(\frac{9}{63} )=\frac{1}{2}[/tex] is [tex]1000\sqrt{10}[/tex].
