Are prime numbers a set closed under addition?

Mathematics
1 answer:
disa [49]3 years ago
3 0

While answering questions on Brainly, I ran into a lot of them
that talked about a set being 'closed'.  I didn't know what that
means, so do ya know what I did ?  I went and looked it up. 
I found it, and then I read about it, and now I know what it means !

A set that's 'closed under addition' means that if you add two numbers
in the set, you get another number that's also in the set.

Let's see:

-- 3 is a prime number
-- 5 is a prime number
-- (3+5) = 8
-- 8 is NOT a prime number

-- We added two prime numbers and got a number that is NOT prime.
   So the set of prime numbers is NOT closed under addition.

A number line ranging from 5 to 45 with a box encompassing the numbers 20, 25, and 30.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

the maximum value is 45

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A box of leaf plot has 5 points and they are:

The minimum, the first quartile (Q1) the median (Q2), the third quartile (Q3), and the maximum. The box encompasses Q1, Q2, and Q3. The maximum is after Q3 and the minimum is before Q1.

In this case,

Q1, Q2, and Q3 are in a range 20-30, thus the maximum come after 30, which is 45

The angle between a 180-pound force F and AB= 5i + 2j is 30.Find the work done by F in moving and object from A to B.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

W=839.464\ ft*lbf

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is the product of the magnitude of the force applied to the object by the magnitude of the displacement of the object by the cosine of the angle between the force and direction of the displacement. This is:

W=|F|*|r|cos(\theta)

In this case

\theta=30\°

|F|=180 pound force

The magnitude of vector AB is:

|r|= \sqrt{5^2 + 2^2}\\\\|r|= \sqrt{29}\ fr

Finally the work is:

W=180*\sqrt{29}*cos(30\°)

W=839.464\ ft*lbf
