The value of X - Y such that the eight-digit number 7448X24Y is divisible by both 8 and 9 is 7

<h3>How to determine the distinct digits X and Y?</h3>

The eight-digit number is given as:

7448X24Y

Also, from the question

The number is divisible by 8 and 9

When a number is divisible by 8, then the last three digits of that number would be divisible by 8.

When a number is divisible by 9, the sum of the digits of the number would be divisible by 9.

So, we have:

24Y is divisible by 8

The possible value of Y from the above statement is 0

This is so because 240 is divisible by 8

The sum of the digits of the number would be divisible by 9.

This means that:

7 + 4 + 4 + 8 + X + 2 + 4 + Y = 29 + X + Y

Substitute 0 for Y

29 + X + Y = 29 + X + 0

Evaluate the sum

29 + X + Y = 29 + X

36 is divided by 9

So, we have

29 + X = 36

Subtract 29 from both sides of the equation

X = 7

So, we have

X = 7 and Y = 0

X - Y is calculated as:

X - Y = 7 - 0

Evaluate the difference in the above equation

X - Y = 7

Hence, the value of X - Y such that the eight-digit number 7448X24Y is divisible by both 8 and 9 is 7

Suppose w=xy+yzw=xy+yz, where x=e2t, y=2+sin(4t)x=e2t, y=2+sin⁡(4t), and z=2+cos(5t)z=2+cos⁡(5t).

Volgvan

$w(x,y,z)=xy+yz$
$x(t)=e^{2t}$
$y(t)=2+\sin4t$
$z(t)=2+\cos5t$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial y}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial z}\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=y\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+(x+z)\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}+y\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=2ye^{2t}+4(x+z)\cos4t-5y\sin5t$
