2) let the cost price be x

5/100 = (60000 - x)/x

x = 1200000 - 20x

21x = 1200000

x = 1200000/21 = 400000/7

Let the new selling price be y, to make a profit of 26%

26/100 = [y - (400000/7)]/(400000/7)

26/100 = (7y - 400000)/400000

10400000 = 700y - 40000000

50400000 = 700y

y = 504000/7

y = N72,000.

let u=4x and hence y=3cosu
du/dx=4 and dy/du=-3sinu=-3sin4x
but dy/dx=dy/du * du/dx
dy/dx=4 * (-3sin4x)
dy/dx = -12sin4x

masperano:
the maximum value occurs when the derivative (dy/dx=0) hence differentiating we have

h-6x=0; => x=h/6. so substitute x into the first equation, we get ymax=1+h(h/6)-3(h/6)^2= 1+(h)^2/6-(h)^2/12=1+(h)^2/12;

=> ymax=1+(h)^2/12; but we were told from the question that ymax=13; 13=1+h^2/12=> 12=h^2/12.

Hence h^2=144, which implies h =+12 or -12.

Sorry, do you mean club =singular clubs =plural

NaturalWoman:
The police is coming

The police are coming

Which is correct??

I'm sorry to say this but to naive English speakers, some words sound absurd but are actually correct.

You should go through notional concord

Hardebaryor:
Actually the former is the right answer sir. This is because they are performing an action.

oldfoolnigger:
No need arguing... that's just ur opinion.
lol...the congregation there is not a singular noun but a plural one....
consider this example now..

Our club is ten years old today(it attracts singular verb cos club there stands for just organization or its physical building and didn't perform any action)

our club are holding meeting tomorrow (our club here now stands for the members and not just the organization..Also they will be performing action which is "holding meeting "that's why plural verb was used.

Same way congregation (members are performing action which is " singing " it should attract plural verb and not a singular one...

The question is even straightforward...Not confusing as other questions from notional Concord

chufor:
But the book is saying the former is correct oh

oldfoolnigger:
the former....



congregation there is a collective noun(Notional Concord)

normally, collective noun goes with singular verb but in this case it performs action and for that, it attracts plural noun...

let break it down...

the congregation (that's the members) are dancing not is...



let me come and be going..

chufor:
Please people help
The congregation are dancing
The congregation is dancing

Please which is correct??

Ayoomodaddy:
Same here... I've even tried to change password gan and it's still saying incorrect details.
