Answer:
$9$
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Thea enters a positive integer into her calculator, then squares it, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key, then squares the result, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key again such that the calculator displays final number as $243$.
To find: number that Thea originally entered
Solution:
The final number is $243$.
As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,
the number before $243$ must be $324$.
As previously the number was squared, so the number before $324$ must be $18$.
As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,
the number before $18$ must be $81$
As previously the number was squared, so the number before $81$ must be $9$.
Answer: x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute 1 for x
1/2(10(1)+6) = -2(1)+10
1/2(10+6) = -2+10
5+3 = -2+10
8=8
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
4x²-7x+7 f(2)=4*(2)^2-7(2)+7=16-14+7=9
Y=12/x
12/2=6
12/4=3
12/8=1.5 or 3/2
12/12=1
Answer is b
Answer: 96%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 total cyclists and 24 of those finished the race in less than 51 minutes. The question would like this 24 to be expressed as a percentage of 25.
In percentage this would be:
= Number of cyclists who finished in 51 minutes / Total number of cyclists * 100%
= 24 / 25 * 100%
= 96%
