Answer:

More than 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to first see that the function is h(n). Picking main points from the question statement:

  • h(n) is the product of all even integers (From 2 to n)
  • p is the smallest factor of h(100)+1
  • h(100)+1 , here n=100

From here, we can write h(100) as:

h(100) = 2 * 4 * 6 * 8 * ...... * 100

h(100) = 2^{50} * (1*2*3*......*50)= 2^{50} * 50!

so,

h(100)+1 =(2^{50} * 50! )+1

Now two numbers,

h(100) and h(100)+1 are consecutive integers and since they are consecutive so they are co-prime. Hence they only have common factor of 1. Example, 13 and 14 have only common factor of 1

As h(100) has all prime numbers from 1 to 50 and according to above statement h(100)+1 won't have any prime factor from 1 to 50, so the smallest prime factor p is greater than 50.

Set up an equation to show (×+2)×5=y
Masteriza [31]
<span>5x+10 = y

Subtract 10 from both sides.

5x = y - 10

Divide both sides by 5.

x = 1/5y - 2

Plugin 1/5y - 2 for the y.
5(1/5y - 2)
1 - 10 + 10 = y

1 = y

Which expression represents -8x^2+54x+140 in factored form?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

D. (x+2)(-8x+70)​

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x^2+54x+140

Factor out -2

-2(4x^2+27x+70)

Factor

-2(x+2)(4x-35)

Option D is the same answer if we multiply -2 in the second term

(x+2) (-8x+70)

QUESTION ATTACHED PLZ HELP NEEDED

Y = a (x + 3)² - 1

Let's take the point (-1;3)

3 = a ( -1 + 3)² - 1
3 = 4a - 1
4a = 4

Therefore a = 4/4 = 1

(x+3)² - 1
= x² + 6x + 9 - 1
= x² + 6x + 8

The answer would be y = x² + 6x + 8.

Hope this helps !
