If 34% of a number is 85,

Question: If 34% of a number is 85, find the number. Solution: Let the required number be $\mathrm{x}$. Then, we have : $(34 \%$ of $\mathrm{x})=85$ $\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{x} \times \frac{34}{100}\right)=85$ $\Rightarrow \frac{34 \mathrm{x}}{100}=85$ $\Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\left(85 \times \frac{100}{34}\right)$ $\Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=250$ Hence, the required number is $250 .$...

f, g and h are three functions defined from R to R as following:

Question: f, g and h are three functions defined from R to R as following: (i) $f(x)=x^{2}$ (ii) $g(x)=x^{2}+1$ (iii) $h(x)=\sin x$ That, find the range of each function. Solution: (i) $f: R \rightarrow R$ such that $f(x)=x^{2}$ Since the value of x is squared, f(x) will always be equal or greater than 0. $\therefore$ the range is $[0, \infty)$ (ii) $g: R \rightarrow R$ such that $g(x)=x^{2}+1$ Since, the value of $x$ is squared and also adding with $1, g(x)$ will always be equal or greater than...
