In a certain culture of bacteria, the rate of increase is proportional to the number present. If there are $10^4$ at the end of 3 hours and $4 \cdot 10^4$ at the end of 5 hours, then there were _________ the beginning.
The number of solutions, of $2^{1+|\cos x|+|\cos x|^2+\ldots \ldots \cdots \cdots}=4$ in $(-\pi, \pi)$, is
Let $\mathrm{f}(x)=x\left[\frac{x}{2}\right]$, for $-10< x<10$, where $[t]$ denotes the greatest integer function. Then the number of points of discontinuity of $f$ is equal to
Let $\hat{a}$ and $\hat{b}$ be two unit vectors. If the vectors $\overline{\mathrm{c}}=\hat{\mathrm{a}}+2 \hat{\mathrm{~b}}$ and $\overline{\mathrm{d}}=5 \hat{\mathrm{a}}+4 \hat{\mathrm{~b}}$ are perpendicular to each other, then the angle between $\hat{a}$ and $\hat{b}$ is
