A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself
For example, the number 7 has two factors: 1,7 This makes 7 a prime number
Since the number has to be greater than 50, we can go to the next whole number; 51
51 has four factors, 1,3,17,51 This is not our prime number
52 is even so obviously it's not prime because you can divide by two
53 has only two factors; 1,53 This means that its prime and the answer is 53 :)

Express y=3x+2 in general form

katrin [286]

General form of a linear equation is ax+by+c=0 where a,b, and c are three real numbers.

So, we can shift all the terms in one side of the equation. Hence, first step is to remove y from the left side. So, subtract y from each sides.

y-y=3x+2-y

0= 3x - y +2 (By simplifying)

So, the general form of the given equation is 3x-y+2=0.

A grocer bought sugar worth of 4500. He sold one-third of it at a pain of 10%. At what gain

damaskus [11]

Answer:

13%

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost price of 1/3 of the sugar = 1/3 x 4500 = 1500

gain= $\frac{selling price - cost price}{cost price}$ x 100

let x = unknown selling price

(x - 1500) / 1500 = 0.1

to solve for x, multiply both sides of the equation by 1500

x - 1500 = 150

x = 1650

the selling price of the 1/3 of sugar that yielded a 10% gain is 1650

to determine the gain percent of the remaining sugar, the selling price of the remaining sugar has to be determined . Let the selling price be represented by a

Based o the information in the question and the previous solution, the following equation can be derived

{(a + 1650) - 4500} / 4500 = 0.12

Solve for a

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4500

a + 1650 - 4500 = 540

a = 3390 = selling price of 2/3 of the sugar

Percent gain that the 2/3 of the sugar should be sold can be determined by taking the following steps

first find cost price of the 2/3 of sugar = 2/3 x 4500 = 3000

gain = (3390 - 3000) /3000 = 0.13 = 13%

The quotient of number and -6 increased by two is 14

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

x = -72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

The quotient of number and -6 is written as :

$\dfrac{x}{-6}$

Now the quotient is increased by 2 i.e.

$\dfrac{x}{-6}+2=14$

Now we can solve it as follows :

Subtract 14 from both sides,

$\dfrac{x}{-6}+2-14=14-14\\\\\dfrac{x}{-6}-12=0\\\\\dfrac{x}{-6}=12\\\\x=-72$

So, the value of x is equal to -72.
