The number ab², where a and b are prime numbers, has 6 divisors.

<h3>How many divisors are for the given expression?</h3>

Remember that any number can be written as a product of primes, for example, 15 can be written as:

15 = 3*5

Where 3 and 5 are primes.

Such that the divisors of 15 are the factors made with the primes on the right side.

So for the number:

N = a*b^2 = a*b*b

The divisors are:

a, b, a*b, b*b

And trivially, itself and 1, so there are a total of 6 divisors.

Which equation represents a line through (-4, 3) that is perpendicular to y=x+7?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

B. y = -x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the new line will be -1.

Plug the slope and the given point into y = mx + b to find b:

y = mx + b

3 = -1(-4) + b

3 = 4 + b

-1 = b

Then, plug this and the slope into y = mx + b

y = -x - 1

So, the correct answer is B, y = -x - 1
