The value of good wine increases with age. Thus, if you are a wine dealer, you have the problem of deciding whether to sell your
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 64 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume the dealer sold the bottle now for $P, then invested that money at 5% interest. The return would be:

R1 = P(1.05)^t,

This means that after t years, the dealer would have the total amount of:

$P×1.05^t.

If the dealer prefer to wait for t years from now to sell the bottle of wine, then he will get the return of:

R2 = $P(1 + 20).

The value of t which will make both returns equal, will be;

R1 = R2.

P×1.05^t = P(1+20)

P will cancel out

1.05^t = 21

Log both sides

Log1.05^t = Log21

tLog1.05 = Log21

t = Log21/Log1.05

t = 64 years

The best time to sell the wine is therefore 64years from now.

Which problem can be solved using the equation shown? 2 dollars and 50 cents x minus 2 dollars = 10 dollars and 50 cents Will bo
Black_prince [1.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Will bought several books that cost $ 2.50 each and received a $ 2 discount on the total bill. If he paid $ 10.50, how many books did he buy ?

2.50x  - 2.00 = 10.50

2.50x = 10.50 + 2.00

2.50x = 12.50

x = 12.50/2.50

x = 5....he bought 5 books

Trava [24]
Given:
5 bonds of face value of 1,000 that paid 5% annual interest rate.

5 bonds x 1,000 = 5,000
5,000 x 5% x 1 year = 250

The total annual interest income of James is 250. Each bond earns 50 per annum.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Let x be the value of the house before increase

Since it's increases add 7% to the overall 100%

107/100x = 749000

x = 700000

The value of the house before increase is £700000.

Hope this helps.

Find where the slope of the curve is defined:<br> x^2y-xy^2=4
Natali [406]
You do the implcit differentation, then solve for y' and check where this is defined. 
In your case: Differentiate implicitly: 2xy + x²y' - y² - x*2yy' = 0 
Solve for y': y'(x²-2xy) +2xy - y² = 0 
y' = (2xy-y²) / (x²-2xy) 
Check where defined: y' is not defined if the denominator becomes zero, i.e. 
x² - 2xy = 0 x(x - 2y) = 0 
This has formal solutions x=0 and y=x/2. Now we check whether these values are possible for the initially given definition of y: 
0^2*y - 0*y^2 =? 4 0 =? 4 
This is impossible, hence the function is not defined for 0, and we can disregard this. 
x^2*(x/2) - x(x/2)^2 =? 4 x^3/2 - x^3/4 = 4 x^3/4 = 4 x^3=16 x^3 = 16 x = cubicroot(16) 
This is a possible value for y, so we have a point where y is defined, but not y'. 
The solution to all of it is hence D - { cubicroot(16) }, where D is the domain of y (which nobody has asked for in this example :-). 
(Actually, the check whether 0 is in D is superfluous: If you write as solution D - { 0, cubicroot(16) }, this is also correct - only it so happens that 0 is not in D, so the set difference cannot take it out of there ...). 
If someone asks for that D, you have to solve the definition for y and find that domain - I don't know of any [general] way to find the domain without solving for the explicit function).
