Answer:

$9.60 or 48% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

The increase is the dollar change

29.60 - 20 = 9.60

The percent increase is, the new price minus the old price all over the old price

percent increase = (29.60 - 20)/ 20

= 9.60/20

= .48

Changing this to percent form

48% increase

Player V and Player M have competed against each other many times. Historical data show that each player is equally likely to wi

Helen [10]

Answer:

0.46 (46%)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

- Probability that player V wins the first set:

$p(1)=0.50$

(because the text says the two players are equally likely to win the first set)

- Probability that player V wins the 2nd set if he has won the 1st set:

$p(2|1)=0.60$

So, the probability that player V wins the first 2 sets is:

$p(12)=p(1)\cdot p(2|1)=(0.50)(0.60)=0.30$ (1)

Instead, the probability that player V loses the 2nd set if he has won the 1st set is 0.40 (=1-0.60), so

$p(2^c|1)=0.40$

So, the probabiity that player V winse the 1st set but loses the 2nd set is

$p(12^c)=p(1)\cdot p(2^c|1)=(0.50)(0.40)=0.20$ (2)

Also, we have:

- Probability that player V loses the 1st set:

$p(1^c)=0.50$

- Probability that she will lose the 2nd set in this case is 0.70, it means that the probability that she will win the 2nd set if she lost the 1st set is 0.30, so:

$p(2|1^c)=0.30$

So, the probability that she will lose the 1st set and win the 2nd set is:

$p(1^c2)=p(1^c)\cdot p(2|1^c)=(0.50)(0.30)=0.15$ (3)

Combined together (2) and (3), this means that the probability that player V wins exactly 1 set out of the first two sets is:

$p(1/2)=p(12^c)+p(1^c2)=0.20+0.15=0.35$ (4)

At this point, the probability that she will win the 3rd set is

$p(3)=0.45$

This means that the overall probability that she will win the 3rd set if she won exacty 1 of the first 2 sets is:

$p(1/2,3) = p(1/2)\cdot p(3)=(0.35)(0.45)=0.16$ (5)

So, the overall probability that player V will win a match against player M is the sum of (1) and (5):

$p(W)=p(12)+p(1/2,3)=0.30+0.16=0.46$

Solve the given initial value problem and determine how the interval in which the solution exists depends on the initial value y

zalisa [80]

Answer:

y has a finite solution for any value y_0 ≠ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the differential equation

y' + y³ = 0

We can rewrite this as

dy/dx + y³ = 0

Multiplying through by dx

dy + y³dx = 0

Divide through by y³, we have

dy/y³ + dx = 0

dy/y³ = -dx

Integrating both sides

-1/(2y²) = - x + c

Multiplying through by -1, we have

1/(2y²) = x + C (Where C = -c)

Applying the initial condition y(0) = y_0, put x = 0, and y = y_0

1/(2y_0²) = 0 + C

C = 1/(2y_0²)

1/(2y²) = x + 1/(2y_0²)

2y² = 1/[x + 1/(2y_0²)]

y² = 1/[2x + 1/(y_0²)]

y = 1/[2x + 1/(y_0²)]½

This is the required solution to the initial value problem.

The interval of the solution depends on the value of y_0. There are infinitely many solutions for y_0 assumes a real number.

For y_0 = 0, the solution has an expression 1/0, which makes the solution infinite.

With this, y has a finite solution for any value y_0 ≠ 0.

An expression is given: 2 open parentheses square root of k minus 1 close parenthesis plus square root of 8. If on adding negati

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Possible value of k is √2

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given are;

The expression, 2·(√k - 1) + √8 to which may be added -6·√2 to obtain a rational number, we therefore have;

2·(√k - 1) + √8 - 6·√2 = R

Therefore, simplifying gives;

2·√k - 2 + 2·√2 - 6·√2 = 2·√k - 2 - 4·√2 = R

2·√k - 2 - 4·√2 + 2= R + 2 = R

2·√k - 2+ 2 - 4·√2 = R

2·√k + 0 - 4·√2 = 2·√k - 4·√2 = 2·(√k - 2·√2) = R

(√k - 2·√2) = R/2 = R

Therefore, √2 is a factor of √k such that √k - 2·√2 = R

Which gives k = x·√2, where x = a rational number

When x = 1, k = √2.

Therefore, a possible value of k is √2

A set of notations (SSS, SAS, ASA and RHS) is used to describe/prove that two triangles are conjurent. For each pair of triangle

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are not given but from this definition, you should be able to select the correct statement.

Triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same size and shape. A triangle is made up of six (three sides and three angles) but only three is usually needed to prove triangle congruence. These are:

a) Side - Side - Side (SSS): Two triangles are congruent if the length of their three sides are equal to each other.

b) Side- angle- side (SAS): If two sides and one angle of a triangle is equal to two sides and a angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent to each other.

c) Angle - side - angle (ASA): If two angles and a side of a triangle are equal to a corresponding two angles and a side of another triangle then the two triangles are congruenr.

d) Right angle - hypotenuse - side (RHS): If for two right angled triangles, their hypotenuse and a side (leg) are equal, then the two triangles are congruent.
