Answer:
- not possible: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 11
- possible: all others
Step-by-step explanation:
Obviously, all multiples of 3 and 7 can be paid.
1 cent can be added by adding a 7-cent stamp and taking away two 3-cent stamps. 2 cents can be added by adding three 3-cent stamps and taking away one 7-cent stamp. Hence any value more than 7 +2(3) = 13 cents can always be accommodated.
Amounts that are impossible:
1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 11 cents
All other positive integer amounts are possible.
Answer:
In short, Your Answer would be either 1 or 7
Step-by-step explanation:
|4x + 12| = 16
As it is in modulus function, it could be either +ve or -ve
4x+12 = 16 OR 4x - 12 = 16
4x = 16-12 OR 4x = 16 + 12
4x = 4 OR 4x = 28
x = 4/4 OR x = 28/4
