(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x

(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio

Suppose that P(n) is a propositional function. Determine for which improper subset of the domain of n the statement P(n) must be
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) P(n) is true for all 'n' in the set ; { 0,2,4,6,8 ….. }

b) P(n) is true for all 'n' in the set ; { 0,1,2,3,4,5 ............ }

Step-by-step explanation:

a) As P(0) is true

we will assume that

  • P(2) is true
  • P(4) is true
  • P(6) is true

this simply means  that ;  P(n) is true for all 'n' in the set

{ 0,2,4,6,8 ….. }

b) since P(0) and P(1) are true

we will assume that

  • P( 0+2 ) = P(2)  is true

also P(1) and P(2) are true

we will assume that

  • P(1+2) = P(3)  is true

Also from the previous answers it can be seen that P(2) + P(3) is true

we will assume

  • P(2+2) = P(4)  is true

This simply means that P(n) is true for all 'n' in the set

{ 0,1,2,3,4,5 ............ }

Compare the decimals 16.30 and 16.3
pshichka [43]
16.30 and 16.3 equal. If you ever have a problem like that then you just add on a zero.

Example:
19.4500 = 19.45 Just add two zeros on the end
19.45 + two zeros = 1.4500
