Find a number so that 100% of it is 26.

Answer:

x = -4 or 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

x² + 2x = 8

Subtract 8 to both sides

x² + 2x - 8 = 0

Using mid-term break method

=> 4 × -2 = 8 (side-term), 4 - 2 = 2 (mid-term)

So, we can break the mid-term into 4 and -2.

x² + 4x - 2x - 8 = 0

Take common

x(x + 4) - 2(x + 4) = 0

Take (x+4) common

(x+4)(x-2) = 0

Either

x + 4 = 0       OR      x - 2 = 0 (Zero's method)

x = -4            OR       x = 2

percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given,

The total number of bacteria in lab dish is 1200

The population decreases 10% per day

In first day:

10/100×1200=120

120 bacteria decreased in lab

1200-120=1080

In second day:

1080-108=972

In third day

0.1×972=97.2

972-97.2=874.8

In fourth day

0.1×874.8=87.48

874.8-87.48=787.32

In fifth day

0.1×787.32=78.732

787.32-78.732

The equation 8x - 4y = -4 have y as the subject to be equal to 2x + 1 expresses in terms of x.

To solve for y in the equation 8x - 4y = -4, we must make y the subject and it should be positive as follows;

8x - 4y = -4

add 4y to both sides

8x - 4y + 4y= -4 + 4y

8x = - 4 + 4y

also to make y the subject;

- 4 + 4y = 8x

add 4 to both sides

- 4 + 4 + 4y = 8x + 4

4y = 8x + 4

factorize the right hand side

4y = 4(2x + 1)

divide through by the coefficient of y

4y/4 = [4(2x + 1)]/4

y = 2x + 1

Hence, the equation 8x - 4y = -4 has y = 2x + 1

The probability that Jordan misses a free throw is 0.16

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Odds in favour = 21 : 4

Represent the odds as a fraction

So, we have the following representation

Odds in favour = 21/4

To convert the odds to probability, we make use of the following equation

Probability = Numerator/(Numerator + Denominator)

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

Probability = 21/(21 +4)

Evaluate the sum

Probability = 21/25

The probability that he misses is

Misses = 1 - 21/25

Evaluate the probability

Misses = 4/25

So, we have

Misses = 0.16

Hence, the probability is 0.16

The horse that can be fed with 44 bales of hay is 110 horses.

A fraction is simply a piece of a whole. The number is represented mathematically as a quotient where the numerator and denominator are split. In a simple fraction, the numerator as well as the denominator are both integers. On the other hand, a fraction appears in the numerator or the denominator of a complex fraction.

Given that the average adult horse needs 2/5 bale of hay each day to meet dietary requirements and a horse farm has 44 bales of hay.

The number of horses that can be fed will be:

Step-by-step explanation:

Also, we know that , because the unit digit is three less than tens digit, or tens digit is three more units than the unit digit. Then, the sum of the reversed number and the original number is 121, this would be expressed: Therefore, the digits are 7 and 4. The number would be 74.

Answer:

The original number is 74

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer of 74 provided by brey90 is absolutely correct. I am just providing a mathematical way of determining the number

Let the number be ab
That means [tex]b[/tex]  is in the units place and [tex]a[/tex] is in the tens place.

The actual value of this two digit number is  [tex]10a + b[/tex]  

The difference between a and b is 3:
[tex]a - b = 3[/tex]  [1]

If we reverse the number we get the number [tex]ba[/tex]

The actual value of [tex]ba[/tex] is [tex]10b + a[/tex]

The sum of [tex]ab[/tex] and [tex]ba[/tex] is 121. This means the sum of their actual values must be 121

So we get
[tex]10a + b + 10b + a = 121\\\\11a + 11b = 121\\\\[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 11 yields:
[tex]a + b = 11[/tex]  [2]

Add [1] and [2] to get:
[tex]2a = 14\\\\a = 7\\\\[/tex]

Sub for a in Equation [1] to get
[tex]7 - b = 3\\\\b = 4\\\\[/tex]

So the original number is 74

Reversed is 47
74 + 47 = 121

A) The number of people who have started the rumor is N(0)=12

B) The number of students who are in the school are 1800

C) The number of days the rumor spreads to ½ the student body are 8 days.

D) The number of students who have heard the rumor when the rumor is spreading the fastest are 900.

The rate of change in students per day at this time is 281.

The rate of change is a mathematical term that describes the percentage change in value over a given time period and represents the momentum of a variable.

A) Number of people who have heard the rumor after t days is given by:

N (t) = 1800/1+149e^-0.625t

At start t=0, so from the above equation at t=0, we get

N(0)=(1800)/1+149e^0

N(0)=1800/(1+149(1))

N(0)=1800/150

N(0)=12

B) At t=∞, all of the students would have heard the rumor.  So putting t↔∞ in the above equation we get,

[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty}[/tex]N(t)=[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty}[/tex] 1800/1+149e^-0.625t

=1800/(1+0)

=1800

Therefore, the number of students in the school are 1800.

C) Putting N=1800/2 in the above equation, we get

1800/2= 1800/1+149e^-0.625t

1+149e^-0.625t=2

e^-0.625t=(2-1)/149

=1/149

Taking log on both sides, we get

ln(e^-0.625t)=ln(1/149)

-0.625t=-ln(149)

t=ln(149)/0.625

t=8.006≈8

D) N'(t)=0.625N(1-(N/1800)

=0.625(N-(N²/1800)

=(0.625/1800)(1800N-N²)

=(0.625/1800)(900²-900²+1800N-N²)

=(0.625/1800)(900²-(N²-1800N+900²)

N'(t)=(0.625/1800)(900²-(N-900)²)

For N to be maximum,

N=900

Thus, rumor is spreading fastest when 900 students have heard the rumor.

And rate of change in students per day is obtained by putting N=900 in expression of N'(t) as follows:

N'(t)=(0.625×900)(1-(900/800))

N'(t)=281.25≈281

Part a:  [In⁻]/[HIn] = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶

Part b: [In⁻]/[HIn] = 50.11, for the given phenolphthalein solution.

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to determine the indicator's pH  is as follows:

pH = pKa + log[In⁻]/[HIn]

In which,

Ka = dissociation constant of acid.

As the stated value-

Part a:

pKa = 9.7

pH = 5.3

Thus,

5.3 = 9.7 + log[In⁻]/[HIn]

log[In⁻]/[HIn]  = - 4.4

[In⁻]/[HIn] = Antilog (-4.4)

[In⁻]/[HIn] = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶

Part b:

pKa = 9.7

pH = 11.4

Thus,

11.4 = 9.7 + log[In⁻]/[HIn]

log[In⁻]/[HIn]  = 1.7

[In⁻]/[HIn] = Antilog (-4.4)

The equation -2g+2g has infinitely many solutions.

The method of solving equations involves determining the value of the unknown variable while maintaining the equality of the equation on both sides. When a condition on variable guarantees that two expressions in the variable have the same value, it qualifies as an equation. The equation's solution is the value of the variable for which the equation is true. An equation remains the same even when the LHS and RHS are flipped. After separating the variable whose value has to be calculated, the solution is found. We can answer it depending on the type of equation we are dealing with. Equations come in a variety of forms, including linear, quadratic, rational, and radical equations.

Consider the given equation

-2g + 2g = 0
