Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call this number n. Here is the info we can write about it. Remember that to write as a percent as a decimal you divide by 100.

n-0.16n=159.6

We combine like terms.

0.84n=159.6

We divide both sides by 0.84

n=190

Have a wonderful day! :D

–t + 9t − 12t − –16t − 18t = –6
-Dominant- [34]
-t + 9t - 12t - (-16t) - 18t = -6
-t + 9t - 12t + 16t - 18t = -6
-6t = -6
-6t/-6 = -6/-6 (-6 on the left side cancels out so we are only left with T and our answer)
T = 1

diamong [38]
Hello here is a solution :
f'(x) =( sin11x)'cos11x +<span>sin11x(cos11x)'
(sin(ax+b))'=a cos(ax+b)
</span>(cos(ax+b))'=-a sin(ax+b)
f'(x) = 11 cos11xcos11x-11sin11xsin11x
f'(x) = 11(cos11x)²-11(sin11x)²
