1% of 500 is what number
1% is the same as the fraction 1/100. what is 1/100 of 500?
50/500 =1% therefore the answer is 50
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 100 } \times \frac{ x }{ 500 }\]
cross multiply
100 * x = 100x 1 * 500 = 500
divide 100x = 500 ----------- 100 100 x = 5% :)
i second that and it should be a = sign not a x for the equation on top. not 50 @scbierste
It should be an equal sign, I was simply showing the 'cross multiply' concept. 10% of 500 would have been 50.
Either way, hope I was of help.
@miraclemilktea2 your right, i just looked at the answer that i put up.. it should equal .01 not.1 woops.. my bad
@miraclemilktea2 are you any good at calc?
Depends on what the problem is, no promises in my guessing that I can ensure help to you. xD
Determine the points at which the function f(x)=ln(|7x−32|) is discontinuous
that shold be Determine the points at which the function f(x)=ln(|7x−32|) is discontinuous
7x-32 inside the abs. mark
I'm not sure about that one but heres a website that may be able to help you if you haven't already looked upon it. http://archives.math.utk.edu/visual.calculus/1/continuous.5/ :)
