The slope 1/2 y -intercept -2
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Given that x and y is even, we want to prove that xy is also even.
For x and y to be even, x and y have to be a multiple of 2. Let x = 2k and y = 2p where k and p are real numbers. xy = 2k x 2p = 4kp = 2(2kp). The product is a multiple of 2, this means the number is also even. Hence xy is even when x and y are even.
(b) in reality, if an odd number multiplies and odd number, the result is also an odd number. Therefore, the question is wrong. I assume they wanted to ask for the proof that the product is also odd. If that's the case, then this is the proof:
Given that x and y are odd, we want to prove that xy is odd. For x and y to be odd, they have to be multiples of 2 with 1 added to it. Therefore, suppose x = 2k + 1 and y = 2p + 1 then xy = (2k + 1)(2p + 1) = 4kp + 2k + 2p + 1 = 2(kp + k + p) + 1. Let kp + k + p = q, then we have 2q + 1 which is also odd.
(c) Given that x is odd we want to prove that 3x is also odd. Firstly, we've proven above that xy is odd if x and y are odd. 3 is an odd number and we are told that x is odd. Therefore it follows from the second proof that 3x is also odd.
Answer: the rectangular
Step-by-step explanation:
All the sides are equal for a regular polygon
Originally we have
length = x
width = x-2
since the width is 2 inches smaller than the length
now let's triple each dimension. Multiply the expressions by 3 to get
new length = 3*x
new width = 3*(x-2) = 3x-6
Now onto the area
area = (length)*(width)
area = (3x)*(3x-6)
area = 3x*3x-3x*6
area = 9x^2 - 18x
So the new larger rectangle has area of 9x^2-18x
Answer:
450 miles , $90.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d be the miles driven
59 + 0.07d = 50 + 0.09d
d = 450
The two plans cost the same when he drives for 450 miles which the respective cost is 59 + 0.07(450) = $90.5
