Given that 4000 items are checked in one month, let the number of detective items be represented as y.

Quality control finds on average that 0.026% of the items in the factory are detective. This implies that

\text{Number of }\det ective\text{ items = }\frac{\text{0.026}}{100}\times\text{Total number of items checked}

When 4000 items are checked, we have the number of detective items to be evaluated as

\begin{gathered} \text{Number of }\det ective\text{ items = }\frac{\text{0.026}}{100}\times\text{Total number of items checked} \\ y=\frac{0.026}{100}\times4000 \\ \Rightarrow y=1.04 \end{gathered}

Hence, the number of detective items is 1.04.

Nine times the sum of a number and 4 is 2
Anna11 [10]

Answer(s):

If you are asking for the equation, it's 9(x+4)=2

However, if you're asking for the value of x as well, it's -34/9

Step by Step:

1) First we must find the equation. In your question, the unknown number is x. Therefore we can know that "the sum of a number and 4" is (x+4). Since we are multiplying this sum by 9, we can put the 9 in front of this expression to multiply it--getting 9(x+4). And since we know it "is 2" we can say that 9(x+4)=2.

2) Now, we have to solve the equation, 9(x+4) = 2

3) We can start by distributing, 9x+36 = 2

4) Now let's move 36 to the right by subtracting from both sides, 9x = -34

5) To isolate x, let's divide both sides by 9, x = -34/9

6) Our fraction answer can't be simplified, so we get x = -34/9
