Here are the solutions to your questions:

4) Convert 432,000 sec = ... days ... hours

  1. Convert seconds to hours.

    There are 3600 seconds in 1 hour (60 seconds/minute×60 minutes/hour60 \text{ seconds/minute} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour}).

    Total hours=432,000 sec3600 sec/hour=120 hours\text{Total hours} = \frac{432,000 \text{ sec}}{3600 \text{ sec/hour}} = 120 \text{ hours}
  2. Convert total hours to days and remaining hours.

    There are 24 hours in 1 day.

    Number of days=120 hours24 hours/day=5 days\text{Number of days} = \frac{120 \text{ hours}}{24 \text{ hours/day}} = 5 \text{ days}

    Since 120 hours is exactly 5 days, there are no remaining hours.

    The conversion is 5 days 0 hours\boxed{\text{5 days 0 hours}}.


    5) Find the next two numbers in the following sequence: 3; 9; 27; 81; ......

  3. Identify the pattern in the sequence.

    Observe the relationship between consecutive terms:
    3×3=93 \times 3 = 9
    9×3=279 \times 3 = 27
    27×3=8127 \times 3 = 81
    The sequence is a geometric progression where each term is multiplied by 3 to get the next term.

  4. Calculate the next two numbers.

    The last given term is 81.
    Next number: 81×3=24381 \times 3 = 243
    Second next number: 243×3=729243 \times 3 = 729

    The next two numbers are 243, 729\boxed{\text{243, 729}}.


    6) Use the divisibility test method to check if 23,760 is divisible by 11.

  5. Apply the divisibility rule for 11.

    The rule states that a number is divisible by 11 if the alternating sum of its digits (starting from the rightmost digit) is 0 or a multiple of 11.
    For the number 23,760:

    0−6+7−3+20 - 6 + 7 - 3 + 2
  6. Calculate the alternating sum.

    0−6+7−3+2=−6+7−3+2=1−3+2=−2+2=00 - 6 + 7 - 3 + 2 = -6 + 7 - 3 + 2 = 1 - 3 + 2 = -2 + 2 = 0

    Since the alternating sum is 0, the number 23,760 is divisible by 11.

    The number 23,760 is divisible by 11\boxed{\text{divisible by 11}}.


    7) Solve 4x−8=10x−204x - 8 = 10x - 20

  7. Gather xx terms on one side of the equation.

    Subtract 4x4x from both sides:

    4x−8−4x=10x−20−4x4x - 8 - 4x = 10x - 20 - 4x −8=6x−20-8 = 6x - 20
  8. Gather constant terms on the other side of the equation.

    Add 20 to both sides:

    −8+20=6x−20+20-8 + 20 = 6x - 20 + 20 12=6x12 = 6x
  9. Solve for xx.

    Divide both sides by 6:

    126=6x6\frac{12}{6} = \frac{6x}{6} 2=x2 = x

    The solution is x=2\boxed{x = 2}.
