The possible numbers that Melody could have picked are -4 and 4.
The operation that prevents us from knowing with 100% certainty the number Melody had picked is multiplication which is implied by the phrase "double the number".
Given, Let x be the number Melody had chosen.
Thus, tripling the number will give 3x, and
squaring this will result to (3x)² which is equals to 9x².
Dividing the square of the number by 2 and subtracting 30 from its quotient will give 42:
9x²/2 ₋ 30 = 42
9x²/2 = 42 ₊ 30
9x²/2 = 72
9x² = 72 × 2
9x² = 144
x² = 144/9
x² = 16
x = ±√16
x = ±4
x = ₊4 or x = 4
hence melody could have picked ₊4 or ₋4 numbers.

Answer:
Where is the question? im happy to answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
I believed it is "401"
1-9 = 9 digits
10-99 = 90 which is 180
100-200 = 100 which is 300 digits
9+180= 189
1392-189= 1203
1200÷300=400 which 1200 digits
401 is the 1392 number scanned
Lets do the math together.
3.5/2 to find the weight loss per week= 1.75.
We know that every week the friend will reduce her goal by 1.75.
15/1.75= 8.6.
This means that in 8.6 weeks the friend will lose 15 pounds.
I hope this Helps! :)
Area of a circle is PI x r^2:
Area of circle = 3.14 x 13^2 = 530.66 square meters.
To find the area of the sector multiply the area of the circle by the fraction of the sector
Area of sector = 530.66 x 150/360 = 221.108 square meters ( Round the answer as needed).
