Consider the 50 odd numbers 1,3, 5, ..., 99.

For each one, form a box containing the number and all powers of 2 times

the number.

So the first box contains {1,2,4,8, 16,..}

the next box contains {3,6,12,24,48, ...}

Then among the 51 numbers chosen, the pigeonhole principle tells us that there are two that are contained in the same box. They must be of the form 2^{m} k and 2^{n} k with the same odd number k. So one will divide the other.

<h3>What is pigeonhole principle?</h3>

According to the pigeonhole principle, if n items are placed in m containers, with n > m, at least one container must contain more than one item.

For example, if you have three gloves (and none of them are ambidextrous/reversible), you must have at least two right-handed gloves or at least two left-handed gloves, because there are three objects but only two categories of handedness to put them into.

tangare [24]

Answer:

7^{\frac{1}{3} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

\sqrt[n]{a^{m} } ⇔ a^{\frac{m}{n} } , then

\sqrt[6]{7^{2} } = 7^{\frac{2}{6} } = 7^{\frac{1}{3} }

Drag a description to match each equation.
AnnZ [28]

Given:

The descriptions and equations. The equations are

y=4x

y=x+4

To find:

The correct description for each equation and match them.

Solution:

We know that, "+" is used for more and "×" is used for times.

Additive: y is 4 more than x.

y=x+4

Additive: x is 4 more than y.

x=y+4

Multiplicative: y is 4 times x.

y=4x

Multiplicative: x is 4 times y

x=4y

Therefore, the correct description for the equation y=4x is "Multiplicative: y is 4 times x " and the correct description for the equation y=x+4 is "Additive: y is 4 more than x. "

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The total cost is $34.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Bob is looking to buy a new baseball cap with his favorite team’s logo on it. He finds one that normally sells for $32. If a 7% sales tax is added.

To find : What is the total cost?

Solution :

The sales price = $32

The tax rate = 7%=0.07

The sales tax is given by,

\text{Sales tax}=\text{Rate}\times \text{Price}

\text{Sales tax}=0.07\times 32

\text{Sales tax}=2.24

Now, adding to sales price

Total cost = 32+2.24

Total cost = $34.24

Therefore, the total cost is $34.24.
