Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

6% of number = 6/100 × x = 6x/100 = 3x/50

Sum of the number and 6% of itself = 42.4

x + (3x/50) = 42.4

(50x+3x)/50 = 42.4

53x = 42.4 × 50

53x = 2120

x = 2120/53

x = 40

Answer:

The answer is  x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

6% of a number is 6/100 * x

Of means multiply.

so 6% of x =    6/100 * x =    6 * x / 100 =    0.06x

Now just put these two together.

x + 0.06x = 42.4    Combine the left

1.06x = 42.4           Divide by 1.06

x = 42.4 / 1.06

x = 40

How many different ways can the letters of “football” be arranged
makvit [3.9K]
<h3>Answer:   10,080</h3>

Explanation:

There are 8 letters so there are 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320 permutations of those letters. However, the letters "O" and "L" show up twice each, so we must divide by 2! = 2*1 = 2 for each instance this happens.

So,

(8!)/(2!*2!) = (40,320)/(2*2) = (40,320)/4 = 10,080

is the number of ways to arrange the letters of "football".

The reason we divide by 2 for each instance of a duplicate letter is because we can't tell the difference between the two "O"s or the two "L"s. If there was a way to distinguish between them, then we wouldnt have to divide by 2.

Let sin(−θ)=−3/5 and tanθ&gt;0. What is the value of cos(−θ)?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The value of  Cos (-Ф) \dfrac{\textrm 4}{\textrm 5} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Trigonometric function as :

sin( - Ф ) = \frac{- 3}{5}

- sin Ф = \frac{- 3}{5}

So, sin Ф = \frac{ 3}{5}

Now, as sin Ф = \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm hypotenuse}

So ,  \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm hypotenuse} =  \frac{ 3}{5}

So, perpendicular = 3

And hypotenuse = 5

Now,<u> From Pythagoras Theorem</u>

Base ² = Hypotenuse² - Perpendicular²

Or, Base ² = 5² - 3²

Or, Base ² = 25 - 9

Or, Base ² = 16

∴  Base = \sqrt{16}

I.e Base = 4

Now, Cos Ф =  \dfrac{\textrm base}{\textrm hypotenuse}

So, Cos Ф =  \dfrac{\textrm 4}{\textrm 5}

Now , Since

Cos ( - Ф ) = Cos Ф

So,  Cos ( - Ф ) = Cos Ф =  \dfrac{\textrm 4}{\textrm 5}

Hence The value of  Cos (-Ф) \dfrac{\textrm 4}{\textrm 5} . Answer
