Answer:

4.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage you first find the decrease in price, divide it by the original price then multiply it by 100.

(14. 44-13. 72)

= -------------------- ×100

14. 44

0. 72

= -------- × 100

14. 44

= 0. 72× 6. 925207759

= 4. 986149584

~ 4. 9

Determine whether each of these sets is finite, countably infinite, or uncountable. For those that are countably in- finite, exh
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

a) the negative integers set A is countably infinite.

   one-to-one correspondence with the set of positive integers:

   f: Z+ → A, f(n) = -n

b) the even integers set A is countably infinite.

   one-to-one correspondence with the set of positive integers:

   f: Z+ → A, f(n) = 2n

c) the integers less than 100 set A is countably infinite.

   one-to-one correspondence with the set of positive integers:

   f: Z+ → A, f(n) = 100 - n

d) the real numbers between 0 and 12 set A is uncountable.

e) the positive integers less than 1,000,000,000 set A is finite.

f) the integers that are multiples of 7 set A is countably infinite.

   one-to-one correspondence with the set of positive integers:

   f: Z+ → A, f(n) = 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

A set is finite when its elements can be listed and this list has an end.  

A set is countably infinite when you can exhibit a one-to-one correspondence between the set of positive integers and that set.

A set is uncountable when it is not finite or countably infinite.
