How to find 62%of $400

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

248

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for What is 400 percent of 62:

400 percent *62 =

(400:100)*62 =

(400*62):100 =

24800:100 = 248

Now we have: 400 percent of 62 = 248

Question: What is 400 percent of 62?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 62.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$62=100\%.

Step 4: Similarly, x=400\%.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

62=100\%(1).

x=400\%(2).

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

\frac{62}{x}=\frac{100\%}{400\%}

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

\frac{x}{62}=\frac{400}{100}

\Rightarrow x=248

Therefore, 400 of 62 is 248

A+b=180<br> A=-2x+115<br> B=-6x+169<br> What is the value of B?

natulia [17]

The answer is: " 91 " .
___________________________________________________
→ " B = 91 " .
__________________________________________________

Explanation:
__________________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________________
" A + B = 180 " ;

"A = -2x + 115 " ;   ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

"B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;
_____________________________________________________
METHOD 1)
_____________________________________________________
Solve for "x" ; and then plug the solved value for "x" into the expression given for "B" ; to solve for "B"
_____________________________________________________

(115 − 2x) + (169 − 6x) =

115 − 2x + 169 − 6x = ?

→ Combine the "like terms" ; as follows:

+ 115 + 169 = + 284 ;

− 2x − 6x = − 8x ;
_________________________________________________________
And rewrite as:

" − 8x + 284 " ;
_________________________________________________________
→ " - 8x + 284 = 180 " ;

Subtract: "284" from each side of the equation:

  → " - 8x + 284 − 284 = 180 − 284 " ;

to get:

→ " -8x = -104 ;

Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "-8 " ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

→ -8x / -8 = -104/-8 ;

→ x = 13
__________________________________________________________
Now, to find the value of "B" :
__________________________________________________________
  "B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

= 169 − 6(13) ; ===========> Plug in our "solved value, "13", for "x" ;

= 169 − (78) ;

= 91 ;

   B = " 91 " .
__________________________________________________
The answer is:  " 91 " .
____________________________________________________
→     " B = 91 " .
____________________________________________________
Now; let us check our answer:
____________________________________________________
→ A + B = 180 ;
____________________________________________________
Plug in our "solved answer" ; which is "91", for "B" ; as follows:
________________________________________________________

→ A + 91 = ? 180? ;

↔ A = ? 180 − 91 ? ;

→ A = ? -89 ? Yes!
________________________________________________________
→ " A = -2x + 115 " ;   ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

Plug in our solved value for "x"; which is: "13" ;

" A = 115 − 2x " ;

→ A = ? 115 − 2(13) ? ;

→ A = ? 115 − (26) ? ;

→ A = ? 29 ? Yes!
_________________________________________________
METHOD 2)
_________________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________________
" A + B = 180 " ;

"A = -2x + 115 " ;   ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

"B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

→ Solve for the value of "B" :
_______________________________________________________
A + B = 180 ;

→ B = 180 − A ;

→ B = 180 − (115 − 2x) ;

→ B = 180 − 1(115 − 2x) ; ==========> {Note the "implied value of "1" } ;
__________________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property" of multiplication:__________________________________________________ a(b + c) = ab + ac ; <u><em>AND</em></u>:
a(b − c) = ab − ac .________________________________________________________
Let us examine the following part of the problem:
________________________________________________________
→ " − 1(115 − 2x) " ;
________________________________________________________

→ " − 1(115 − 2x) " = (-1 * 115) − (-1 * 2x) ;

= -115 − (-2x) ;

= -115 + 2x ;
________________________________________________________
So we can bring down the: " {"B = 180 " ...}" portion ;

→and rewrite:
_____________________________________________________

→ B = 180 − 115 + 2x ;

→ B = 65 + 2x ;
_____________________________________________________
Now; given: "B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

→ " B = 169 − 6x = 65 + 2x " ;
______________________________________________________
→ " 169 − 6x = 65 + 2x "

Subtract "65" from each side of the equation; & Subtract "2x" from each side of the equation:

→ 169 − 6x − 65 − 2x = 65 + 2x − 65 − 2x ;

to get:

→ " - 8x + 104 = 0 " ;

Subtract "104" from each side of the equation:

→ " - 8x + 104 − 104 = 0 − 104 " ;

to get:

→ " - 8x = - 104 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "-8" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

→ -8x / -8 = -104 / -8 ;

to get:

→ x = 13 ;
______________________________________________________

Now, let us solve for: " B " ; → {for which this very question/problem asks!} ;

→ B = 65 + 2x ;

Plug in our solved value, " 13 ", for "x" ;

→ B = 65 + 2(13) ;

= 65 + (26) ;

→ B = " 91 " .
_______________________________________________________
Also, check our answer:
_______________________________________________________
Given: "B = - 6x + 169 " ;   ↔ B = 169 − 6x = 91 ;

When "x = 13 " ; does: " B = 91 " ?

→ Plug in our "solved value" of " 13 " for "x" ;

→ to see if: "B = 91" ; (when "x = 13") ;

→ B = 169 − 6x ;

= 169 − 6(13) ;

= 169 − (78)______________________________________________________
→ B = " 91 " .

What is the inverse of the function? f(x) = 2x - 10?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $f(x)=y$

y=2x-10

Switch x and y,

x=2y-10

x+10=2y

(x/2)+5=y

So $f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{2}+5$

hi, i dont undertand number 20 because i was absent in class today and i rerally need help, i will appraciate with the help, and

Mariulka [41]

Given:

The equation is,

$2\log _3x-\log _3(x-2)=2$

Explanation:

Simplify the equation by using logarthimic property.

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _3x-\log _3(x-2)=2 \\ \log _3x^2-\log _3(x-2)=2_{}\text{ \lbrack{}log(a)-log(b) = log(a/b)\rbrack} \\ \log _3\lbrack\frac{x^2}{x-2}\rbrack=2 \end{gathered}$

Simplify further.

$\begin{gathered} \log _3\lbrack\frac{x^2}{x-2}\rbrack=2 \\ \frac{x^2}{x-2}=3^2 \\ x^2=9(x-2) \\ x^2-9x+18=0 \end{gathered}$

Solve the quadratic equation for x.

$\begin{gathered} x^2-6x-3x+18=0 \\ x(x-6)-3(x-6)=0 \\ (x-6)(x-3)=0 \end{gathered}$

From the above equation (x - 6) = 0 or (x - 3) = 0.

For (x - 6) = 0,

$\begin{gathered} x-6=0 \\ x=6 \end{gathered}$

For (x - 3) = 0,

$\begin{gathered} x-3=0 \\ x=3 \end{gathered}$

The values of x from solving the equations are x = 3 and x = 6.

Substitute the values of x in the equation to check answers are valid or not.

For x = 3,

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _3(3^{})-\log _3(3-2)=2 \\ 2\log _33-\log _31=2 \\ 2\cdot1-0=2 \\ 2=2 \end{gathered}$

Equation satisfy for x = 3. So x = 3 is valid value of x.

For x = 6,

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _36-\log _3(6-2)=2 \\ 2\log _36-\log _34=2 \\ \log _3(6^2)-\log _34=2 \\ \log _3(\frac{36}{4})=2 \\ \log _39=2 \\ \log _3(3^2)=2 \\ 2\log _33=2 \\ 2=2 \end{gathered}$

Equation satifies for x = 6.

Thus values of x for equation are x = 3 and x = 6.
