Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x;

That means 25% of the number is;

25/100 × x = 1/4x

But 25% of the number is 24.

Meaning 1/4x = 24;

x = 24 × 4 = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

25% is 1/4 of 100%

thus, if you multiply 24x4 you get 100%

Without multiplying, tell whether the product 0.644 x 0.25 will be greater than 1 or less than 1? Explain how you know.

Answer:

Less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As 0.644 and 0.25 are less than 1, then

$0.644=\frac{1}{p}$

$0.25=\frac{1}{q}$

where p and q are greater than 1

then

$0.644\times0.24=\frac{1}{p.q}$

But p.q is greater than 1, so 1/(p.q) is smaller than 1

Answer:

B. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of c, substitute the x and y values of the given point into x and y of the equation, then isolate c. Since that given point is (2,5), substitute 2 for x and 5 for y:

$(5) = -2(2)^2+8(2)-c\\5 = -2(4)+16-c\\5 = -8 + 16 - c \\5 = 8 -c\\-3 = -c\\c = 3$

Thus, c = 3.
