four subtracted from twice a number is two. what is the number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

      First, we will write a mathematical equation for the phrase given.

-> Let n be "a number"

             four subtracted from twice a number is two

             four subtracted from twice a number = 2

             (twice a number) - 4 = 2

             2n - 4 = 2

      Now, we will solve this equation by isolating the variable.

             2n - 4 = 2

             2n = 6

             n = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to do 4 divided by 4 on 1 side and 20 divided by 4 on the other side

4÷4= 1 so we are left with x

For an experiment, Sandra needs 20 grams of a 26% solution of salt. She has two large bottles of salt water: one contains a 20% solution, and the other contains 35% solution. How much of each must she use to make the solution she needs?

Answers

The amount of grams that she must use to make the solution she needs are: 12 grams and 8 grams.

Amount of grams

x grams of 20% and 20-x grams of 35%

Hence:

0.20x+0.35(20-x)=0.26×20

0.20x-0.35x+7=5.2

Collect like terms

-0.15x=-1.80

Divide both side by -0.15x

x=-1.80/-0.15

x=12 grams of 20% or 2.4 grams pure

20-x= (20-12) =8 grams of 35% or 2.8 grams pure

Therefore the amount of grams that she must use to make the solution she needs are: 12 grams and 8 grams.

Answer:

[tex]1 \div {3}^{( 30)} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are exponent rules I posted above that are being used here.

We have (3^-6)^-5

Since we have a power times a power, we multiply 6 and 5 to get -30. Look at the first example in the photo.

So, we're left with 3^-30.

If you look at the photo, there's a rule for negative exponents.

Take the inverse of the base number, so 3 in this case:

1 / 3

and then make the exponent positive after taking the inverse.

So, we should get 1 / 3^30

A catapult hurls a pumpkin from a height of 32 feet at an initial velocity of 96 feet per second.

The function h(t)=-16t^2+96t+32 represents the heights of the pumpkin h(t) in terms of time t.

We have to determine the maximum height.

What is the maxima?

At the point of maxima f'(x)=0

first, find the maxima

Therefore differentiate the given function with respect to t we get,

[tex]h'(t)=-32t+96[/tex]

h'(t)=0

Then we get,

Simplifying :

y = √(4x + 11)

Now, the term in the bracket has to be greater than or equal to 0 to be real.

Hence,

The equation that produces the circle in the given graph is; x² + y² = 16. The correct answer is option B.

The complete graph is attached with the answer below.

How to interpret the equation of a Circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional geometry on the plane having a centre point and the circular line is drawn equidistant from the centre point.

The general form of the equation of a circle is;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where;

h, k are coordinates of the circle centre r is the radius

From the graph, we can see that the coordinates of the centre are; (0, 0).

Also, the radius is;

r = √(4² - 0²)

r = √16

Thus, our equation of the circle in the graph is;

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = (√16)²

x² + y² = 16

Therefore the equation that produces the circle in the given graph is; x² + y² = 16. The correct answer is option B.
