Answer:

a)148.47

b)148.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let π(x) be the prime-counting function that gives the number of primes less than or equal to x, for any real number x. For example, π(7) = 4 because there are four prime numbers (2, 3, 5, 7) less than or equal to 7.

We can see that π(7)=π(10) because there are four prime numbers (2,3,5,7) less than or equal to 10.

A good aproximation for π(x) is x / log x, where log x is the natural logarithm of x.

a)The number of primes between 1 and 1030.

1030/log(1030)=148.47

b) The number of primes between 1 and 1029.

1029/log(1029)=148.34

Extra: π(1029)=π(1030) because 1030 is not a prime.

A mirror is 24 inches high and 28 inches wide. The center of the mirror will hang 514 feet from the floor on a wall that is 8 fe

Vanyuwa [196]

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling once the mirror is hung on the wall is 21 inches

The dimension of the mirror is given as:

$Height = 24\ in$

$Width = 28\ in$

From the center of the mirror to the floor of the wall, the distance is:

$Distance =5\frac14\ ft$

So, the distance to the top of the mirror will be:

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft + \frac 12 \times Height$

Substitute 24 for height

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ \frac 12 \times 24\ in$

$Top = 5\frac 14\ ft+ 12 \ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Top = 5\frac 14\times 12\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 63\ in+ 12 \ in$

$Top = 75 \ in$

The distance from the top of the mirror to the ceiling is the difference between the height of the wall and 75 inches.

So, we have:

$Distance = 8\ ft - 75\ in$

Convert feet to inches

$Distance = 8\times 12\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 96\ in - 75\ in$

$Distance = 21\ in$

Hence, the distance is 21 inches

What is the solution of 6(3-2x)=54?

notka56 [123]

Hello!

You solve this algebraically

6(3 - 2x) = 54

distribute the 6

18 - 12x = 54

Subtract 18 from both sides

-12x = 36

Divide both sides by -12

x = -3

The answer is -3

Hope this helps!

Tank a has a capacity of 9.5 gallons. 6 1/3 gallons of the tank's water are poured out. how many gallons of water are left in th

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Water left in tank is $3\frac{1}{6}$ gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Capacity of tank = 9.5 gallons $=\frac{95}{10}$

Water taken out of tank = $6\frac{1}{3}=\frac{19}{3}$ gallons

We have to find the water left in the tank.

Water left in the tank = Total capacity of tank - water taken out of tank

= $\frac{95}{10}-\frac{19}{3}$

Taking LCM of (3,10)= 30

$\Rightarrow \frac{95 \times 3-19 \times10}{30}$

Solving further, we get,

$\Rightarrow \frac{285-190}{30}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{95}{30}=\frac{19}{6}=3\frac{1}{6}$

Thus, Water left in tank is $3\frac{1}{6}$ gallons..
