Answer:

The original price of computer is $ 1040

Solution:

Given that, Mason used a 30% coupon to buy a new computer

After the discount, the cost of the computer was $728

To find: original price of computer

From given question,

price after discount = $ 728

discount = 30 % of original price

Let "x" be the original price of computer

price after discount = original price - discount price

Let P and Q be polynomials with positive coefficients. Consider the limit below. lim x→[infinity] P(x) Q(x) (a) Find the limit i

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

If the limit that you want to find is $\lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)}$ then you can use the following proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $P(x)=a_{n}x^{n}+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_{1}x+a_{0}$ and $Q(x)=b_{m}x^{m}+b_{m-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+b_{1}x+b_{0}$ be the given polinomials. Then

$\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)}=\dfrac{x^{n}(a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n})}{x^{m}(b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m})}=x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}$

Observe that

$\lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\dfrac{a_{n}}{b_{m}}$

and

$\lim_{x\to \infty} x^{n-m}=\begin{cases}0& \text{if}\,\, nm\end{cases}$

Then

$\lim_{x\to \infty}=\lim_{x\to \infty}x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\begin{cases}0 & \text{if}\,\, nm \end{cases}$

Chen is bringing fruit and veggies to serve at an afternoon meeting. He spends a total of $28.70 on 5 pints of cut veggies and 7

deff fn [24]

The answer would be $1.75 (Rounded off to the nearest cent).

Substitute the given cost of each pint of fruit to the equation. Transpose and simplify, to get the price of a pint of veggies.
Given: 5v + 7f = 28.70; f = $2.85
Solution: 5v + 7(2.85) = 28.70
5v + 19.95 = 28.70
5v = 8.75
v = 1.75

A cylinder shaped dispenser holds 5,652 cubic centimeters of liquid soap and is now full. The radius of the dispenser is 7.5 cen

attashe74 [19]

We know that

[volume of cylinder]=pi*r²*h------------> h=[volume of cylinder]/(pi*r²)
Volume=5652 cm³
r=7.5 cm
so
h=[5652]/(3.14*7.5²)-----------> h=32 cm

the height of the soap in the full dispenser is 32 cm

the height when 4,239 cubic centimeters of soap remains in the dispenser is
h=[4239]/(3.14*7.5²)-----------> h=24 cm

hence

the difference is 32-24--------> 8 cm

the answer is
8 cm
