Answer:

Yes!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the tens place and y be the units place. x and y need to be odd because in other case a or b will not be odd. For example, if x=1 and y=2 a will be 21 but b will be 12 that is not odd.

Now, a+b = xy+yx. Note that xy is not x*y, is just the digits concatenated.Then, there are two cases:

If x+y<10 then xy+yx = (x+y)(x+y) (again, that is not a multiplication is x+y concatenated with x+y) and that is 11*(x+y) a multiple of 11.

If x+y≥10 then xy+yx = (x+y+1)(x+y-10) because x+y<20.

Now we are going to see that last result without the concatenation, as a sum, that is

(x+y+1)*10 + x+y-10 = 10x+10y+10+x+y-10 = 11x+11y = 11(x+y). This result is clearly a multiple of 11.

In conclusion, in all cases the result of a+b is a multiple of 11.

I was once homeschooled, ya know. 
.
Let me walk you through the problems.
.
First of all...
.
we know the area of the garden. In order to find how many cups of fertilizer we need, we need to find THE AREA. Then, it's just a matter-of-fact of just multiplying the area by 1/8.
.
2. Information not needed? OF COURSE!! The money. Why we need money in this problem?! We find NUMBER OF CUPS, not MONEY NEEDED.
.
3. I need to determine how much cups of fertilizer I need. The answer? Oh, find the area. IT's 9 1/3 multiplied by 12, by the way. Then multiply the area by 1/8. BOOM!!
.

Ok. 50 soda bottles are made in 2 minutes. We need to know how many could be made in 1. Dividing 2 by 2 gives us one minute. So if we divide 50 by 2, keeping the ratio the same, gives us 25. Thus, 25 bottles can be made in 1 minute. Hope that helps!!!

Please help me with this problem! I know three of the answers just need the last one!

Answer:

There can be a number of correct answers. One of them is the ship has traveled 25 miles in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from destination f after x hours for the ship is given by f(x)=120-25x

At the beginning, x=0, f(x)=f(0)=120

After 1 hour, f(x)=f(1)=120-25=95

So in 1 hour, the ship has traveled 120-95=25 miles.
