It quickly becomes apparent that 174 is much too large, so n must be 144.The value of the n is 144.

Taking the given equation modulo 2,3, and 5, respectively, we have

n⁵≡(mod 2)

n⁵≡(mod 3)

n⁵≡( mod 5)

By either Fermat's Little Theorem (FLT) or inspection, we get

n≡(mod 2)

n≡(mod 3)

n≡( mod 5)

By either the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) or inspection, we get n≡ 24 ( mod 30)

It is clear that n>133, so the possible values for n are 144,174,204,...Note that

n⁵ = 133⁵ + 110⁵ + 84⁵ + 27⁵

n⁵ < 133⁵ + 110⁵ +( 84 + 27)⁵

n⁵ =133⁵ + 110⁵ + 111⁵

n⁵ < 3.133⁵

From which (n/133)⁵ < 3

If n>= 174 then,

(n/133)⁵ > 1.3⁵

(n/133)⁵ = 3

which arrives at a contradiction. Therefore, we conclude that n=144

Can someone explain this for me??<br> 4 (c+2) &lt; 4c + 10
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The inequality would be true

Step-by-step explanation:

4(c+2) < 4c + 10

Distribute the 4 on the left

4c + 8 < 4c + 10

Subtract 4c from both sides

8 < 10

8 < 10 is true

Tickets for a minor league baseball game for an adult and two children cost a total of $21 the adult ticket is three dollars mor
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:the cost of one child's ticket is $6

the cost of one adult ticket is $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one child's ticket

Let y represent the cost of one adult ticket.

Tickets for a minor league baseball game for an adult and two children cost a total of $21. This means that

2x + y = 21 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The adult ticket is three dollars more than a child's ticket. This means that

y = x + 3

Substituting y = x + 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + x + 3 = 21

3x + 3 = 21

3x = 21 - 3 = 18

x = 18/3 = 6

y = x + 3 = 6 + 3

y = 9
