Answer:

  9

Step-by-step explanation:

The 79-digit number of interest can be formulated as a sum of shorter numbers whose remainders can be computed.

<h3>Expanded form</h3>

The expanded form of the number can be written as ...

  a_44 = 01×10^78 +23×10^76 +45×10^74 +67×10^72 +89×10^70 +...

  +10×10^68 +11×10^66 +... +43×10^2 +44×10^0

<h3>Powers of 10</h3>

Each number except the last is multiplied by a power of 10. Powers of 10 modulo 45 are ...

  10 mod 45 = 10

  100 mod 45 = 10

This lets us conclude that any positive power of 10 mod 45 is 10.

<h3>Parts of the sum</h3>

In short, all of the multiplication by powers of 10 can be collapsed to a single multiplication by 10. Hence, the mod 45 value of a_44 will be ...

  a_44 mod 45 = (((01 +23 +45 +67 +89) +10 +11 +12 +... +43)×10 +44) mod 45

  = (((01 +23 +45 +67 +89) mod 45 + sum(10 .. 43) mod 45)×10 +44) mod 45

  = (((225 mod 45) +(901 mod 45))×10 +44) mod 45

  = ((0 +1)×10 +44) mod 45

<h3>Final value</h3>

  a_44 mod 45 = 54 mod 45 = 9

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The result can be confirmed by a suitable calculator.

__

The sum of the 34 numbers from 10 to 43 is the product of their average value (10+43)/2 = 26.5 and their number, 34. (26.5×34) = 901.

Step-by-step explanation:

we see f(x), which is |x|.

and we see g(x), which is clearly the same basic graph, it is just shifted 3 units down in y direction.

shifts are simply done by keeping the original function definition and then add it subtract a certain constant that then adapts every original functional value.

so, a shift down by 3 units is done by adding -3.

therefore, C is the correct answer (the original f(x) - 3).

An athlete ran 800 meters in 160 seconds. What was his rate in meters per minute? Enter your answer in the box.
FromTheMoon [43]

The athlete's average speed was 300 meters/minute.

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the athlete?</h3>

To calculate the speed of the athlete we must perform the following operations.

Divide the distance into the total time:

  • 800m ÷ 160sec = 5m/sec

Transform the value from seconds to minutes, for which we must multiply 5 by 60 because each minute is made up of 60 seconds.

  • 5m/sec × 60sec = 300m/min

According to the above, the average speed of the athlete is 300m/min.

Two functions are shown in the table below.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

(d)\ x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = -x^2 + 4x + 12

g(x) = x + 8

Required

Find x such that: f(x) = g(x)

This gives:

-x^2 + 4x + 12 = x+8

Collect like terms

-x^2 + 4x -x + 12 -8=0

-x^2 + 3x +4 =0

Expand

-x^2 + 4x - x+4 =0

Factorize

x(x - 4) - 1(x-4) = 0

Factor out x - 1

(x- 1)(x - 4)=0

Solve:

x =1\ or\ x = 4
