Answer:

n = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to write the questions mathematically and then solve

72 = 80% of n

72   = \frac{80}{100} ×  n

72  =  \frac{80 n}{100}

Multiply both-side of the equation by 100

72 × 100 =  \frac{80 n}{100}   ×100

At the right-hand side of the equation, 100 will cancel-out 100, leaving us with just 80 n

7200 = 80 n

Divide both-side of the equation by 80

\frac{7200}{80}  =  \frac{80n}{80}

(On the right-hand side of the equation, 80 will cancel out 80 leaving us with just n while on the left-hand side of the equation 7200 will be divide by 80)

\frac{7200}{80}   =   n

90  =  n

n = 90

Well I'm not sure what the answer would be since I'm not that smart but I did get the answer of 90, I did this by dividing 72 by 80 which equals .9 and I multiplied that by 100 and got 90.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1) a=\dfrac{F}{m}

2) m=\dfrac{p}{v}

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given equation is

F=ma

We need to solve this for a.

In the given triangle place single variable i.e., F, on the top and variables in the product in the bottom (order of m and a does not matter) as shown in the below figure.

Using the triangle and the operations (× and ÷), we get

F=ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

m=\dfrac{F}{a}

Therefore, the required answer is a=\dfrac{F}{m}.

2) The given equation is

p=mv

We need to solve this for m.

In the given triangle place single variable i.e., p, on the top and variables in the product in the bottom (order of m and v does not matter) as shown in the below figure.

Using the triangle and the operations (× and ÷), we get

p=mv

m=\dfrac{p}{v}

v=\dfrac{p}{m}

Therefore, the required answer is m=\dfrac{p}{v}.

Answer:

[4, positive infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

since there is a closed circle on 4, we include 4 in the continuous interval, and we assume that the arrow represents continuity after the graph ends, so the interval of continuity is from 4 to positive infinity.
