Answer:

the positive number is equal to  6.

Step-by-step explanation:

from the question which says A positive number is 30 less than its square. Find the number.

let the number be "n"

and the square of the number = n²

So, we have  the expression to be

n = n²-30

n ²-30 -n =0

Re-arrange the equation

n²-n-30=0

the factors of -30 are 5 and -6

so we have

(n+5)(n-6)=0

n+5 =0

n = -5

or

n-6 =0

n = 6

therefore the number can either be -5 or 6.

note we are asked to find the positive number , so the positive number is 6

Recall that the primes fall into three categories: Let Pi be the set of
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)Let p be the smallest prime divisor of (n!)^2+1 if p<=n then p|n! Hence p can not divide (n!)^2+1. Hence p>n

(b) (n!)^2=-1 mod p now by format theorem (n!)^(p-1)= 1 mod p ( as p doesn't divide (n!)^2)

Hence (-1)^(p-1)/2= 1 mod p hence [ as p-1/2 is an integer] and hence( p-1)/2 is even number hence p is of the form 4k+1

(C) now let p be the largest prime of the form 4k+1 consider x= (p!)^2+1 . Let q be the smallest prime dividing x . By the previous exercises q> p and q is also of the form 4k+1 hence contradiction. Hence P_1 is infinite

Someone help need this done right now I’ll mark u brainliest
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

89 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We know it's 9 + "the height of the triangle".

Fortunately, the height of the triangle (let's call it y) can be computed from:

y^2 + 18^2 = 82^2 (Pythagoras theorem).

y^2 = 82^2 - 18^2 = 6724 - 324 = 6400

y = 80 (or y = -80 but it doesn't make sense in geometry).

so x = y + 9 = 89;
