Answer:
x= 7 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the 1/2 to get it out of the way (whatever you do on one side of the = sign you have to do to the other)
So 10- 1/2= 9 1/2
Subtract the 2 to get it out of the way
9 1/2-2=
7 1/2
Hope it helped :)
Step-by-step explanation:
yes, if your teacher meant to include the default factors of every positive integer number : 1 and the number itself.
these are the 2 positive integer factors.
if a positive number can only be divided without remainder by 1 or by itself (with result 1), then it is per definition a prime number.
if the number can be divided without remainder by another number, then we are not dealing with a prime number.
but if your teacher did not have these default factors in mind, then no :
example : 15
15 has only 2 factors : 3 and 5.
both are positive integer numbers.
and yet 15 is not a prime number.
but back to my first point, 15 also has formally the factors 1 and 15. so, if we count them too, then we have suddenly 4 factors. and the original statement fits again.
