First, let me do the Mathematical part of that, and then I shall explain the theory behind it.
Mathematical part:
We are going to multiply 513 with 46. So the two partial products that we are going to choose are 40 and 6.
Multiply 513 with 6 first.
513
x46
--------------------------
18 (as 6*3 = 18)
60 (as 6*10 = 60; In 513, the digit at tenths place is 1, so 1*10=10)
3000 (as 6*500 = 3000; In 513, 5 is at hundredth place, so 5*100=500)
120 (as 40*3 = 120; since 4 is at the tenth place, so 4*10=40)
400 (as 40*10 = 400)
20000 (as 40*500 = 20000)
--------------------------
23598 (Add all of them)
Theory:
As you can see above that we have chosen the two partial products individually which are 6 and 40. Since 4 in 46 is in tenth place, we have to consider it 40 (since 4*10 = 40). One by one, we first multiply 6 with 513. Then we move to the tenth place, and multiply 513 with 40. At the end, we have added all the results we found after multiplication.
Check: If we check the multiplication result by using the calculator, we would get the same result (23598).
Another Method (instant):
513 * (40+6) = (513*40) + (513*6) = 23598.
Answer:
a) 10/3
b) hyperbola
c) x = ± 6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) A conic section with a focus at the origin, a directrix of x = ±p where p is a positive real number and positive eccentricity (e) has a polar equation:
Given the conic equation: 
We have to make it to be in the form :
Comparing with
e = 10/3 = 3.3333, p = 6/5
b) since the eccentricity = 3.33 > 1, it is a hyperbola
c) The equation of the directrix is x = ±p = ± 6/5
To calculate the costs of a quart of strawberries and a quart of raspberries, use the two given condition to set-up an equation. Since two variables are unknown, it needs two equation to calculate the solution. Let x be the cost of a quart of strawberries and y as the cost of a quart of raspberries. So, 1st equation is 3x + 2y = 22, and 2nd equation is 5x + 4y = 39. Substitute one equation into the other by expressing one variable into another variable. Then, the answer is x = $3.5 and y = $5.75.
Answer: the total amount that you can earn in 15 years is $737245. Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
You receive an annual salary of $32,900 and each year, you are assured of a 5.5% raise. Assuming there was no raise, you get 100% of your previous salary each year. With a raise of 5.5%, you will get 100 + 5.5 = 105.5% of your previous salary for each year. This is a geometric progression and we want to determine the sum of 15 terms(15 years).
The formula for the sum of terms in a geometric progression is
Sn = [a(r^n - 1)]/ r - 1
Sn = sum of n terms
a = the first term
n = number of terms
r = common ratio
From the information given,
a = 32900
n = 15
r = 105.5/100 = 1.055
S15 = [32900(1.055^15 - 1)] / 1.055 - 1
S15 = [32900(2.23247649 - 1)] / 0.055
S15 = 32900 × 1.23247649) / 0.055
S15 = 737245.0277
S15 = $737245
