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 the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, –5). Describe the ste
olga_2 [115]
1. "the graph has the same zeros" : so let a be the "triple" root of the cubic polynomial function.

2. So f(x)=(x-a)^{3}

3. Don't forget that the expression might have a coefficient b as well, and still maintain the conditions: 
 
f(x)=b(x-a)^{3}

4. Now, f(0)=-5 so  -5=f(0)=b(0-a)^{3}=b(-a) ^{3}=-ba ^{3}

-5=-ba ^{3}

5=ba ^{3}

b= \frac{5}{ a^{3} }

5. the function is f(x)=\frac{5}{ a^{3} }(x-a)^{3} where a can be any real number except 0

Solve for x. 3x - 1 = 27 x = 10 x = 28/3 x = 26/3
frutty [35]

Answer:

x = 28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 1 = 27

Add 1 to each side

3x - 1+1 = 27+1

3x = 28

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 28/3

x = 28/3
