"of" means multiply
So 65% * 40
65% is the same as 0.65 (% means divide by 100).
0.65 * 40 = 26
26 games

Two-fifths of the square of a number j

fredd [130]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}j^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

j ------> the number

we know that

The square of a number is equal to multiply the number by itself

The square of j is

$j*j=j^{2}$

Two-fifths of the square of a number j is the same that multiply the fraction 2/5 by the square of j

$\frac{2}{5}j^{2}$

A scientist measured the energy of a system and found that it was increasing. The data shown represent the energy taken every bi

DiKsa [7]

At start ( t = 0 nanoseconds ) :

E ( t = 0 ) = 2.645 J

E ( t = 1 ) = 6.290 J

E ( t = 1 ) : E ( t = 0 ) = 6.290 : 2.645 = 2.37

Also:

E ( t = 2 ) : E ( t = 1 ) = 14.909 : 6.290 = 2.37

E ( t = 3 ) ; E ( t = 2 ) = 35.335 : 14.909 = 2.37

Therefore, the formula for calculating the energy of the system is:

E ( t ) = 2.645 * 2.37 ^ t

The answer is 4) exponential growth.

Triple a number decreased by 14

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Since we know 14, but we don't know the other number, we use a variable. To do that, we look at the problem, then we figure out the unknown. The unknown is: A number. We know 14. Since "Triple" means 3, we can put the exponent 3 by X.

Therefore, the answer is $X^3-14$ .
