Base 10 has the ten digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7, 8, 9}
Base 11 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A} where A is treated as a single digit number
Base 12 has the digits {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B}
Base 13 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C}
Base 14 has the digits: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D}
The digit D is the largest single digit of that last set. So the largest 3-digit base 14 integer is DDD which is the final answer
Note: It is similar to how 999 is the largest 3-digit base 10 integer
Question A: The per capita debt would be $43,888.75.
Per capita means the amount per person. To find this amount, we need to take the total debt and divide it by the number of people.
13,561,623 divided by 309 = 43,888.75
For Question B, you will need to have the other CPI value from the table.
Answer:
(x -1)(12x +13)
Step-by-step explanation:
You are looking to rewrite the middle term as the sum of terms that have factors of (12)(-13) that have a total of +1. Those factors are -12 and +13, so the expression you are factoring by grouping is ...
12x^2 +13x -12x -13
= x(12x +13) -1(12x +13)
= (x -1)(12x +13)
