Mathematics

1 answer:

Arturiano [62]3 years ago

5 0

Order of operations

5/8 = 0.625
1/4 = 0.25

0.25*2 = 0.5

0.625-0.5 = 0.125

so the final answer is 0.125

(x +y)^5<br> Complete the polynomial operation

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Please check the explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial

$\left(x+y\right)^5$

$\mathrm{Apply\:binomial\:theorem}:\quad \left(a+b\right)^n=\sum _{i=0}^n\binom{n}{i}a^{\left(n-i\right)}b^i$

$a=x,\:\:b=y$

$=\sum _{i=0}^5\binom{5}{i}x^{\left(5-i\right)}y^i$

so expanding summation

$=\frac{5!}{0!\left(5-0\right)!}x^5y^0+\frac{5!}{1!\left(5-1\right)!}x^4y^1+\frac{5!}{2!\left(5-2\right)!}x^3y^2+\frac{5!}{3!\left(5-3\right)!}x^2y^3+\frac{5!}{4!\left(5-4\right)!}x^1y^4+\frac{5!}{5!\left(5-5\right)!}x^0y^5$

solving

$\frac{5!}{0!\left(5-0\right)!}x^5y^0$

$=1\cdot \frac{5!}{0!\left(5-0\right)!}x^5$

$=1\cdot \:1\cdot \:x^5$

$=x^5$

also solving

$=\frac{5!}{1!\left(5-1\right)!}x^4y$

$=\frac{5}{1!}x^4y$

$=\frac{5x^4y}{1}$

$=5x^4y$

similarly, the result of the remaining terms can be solved such as

$\frac{5!}{2!\left(5-2\right)!}x^3y^2=10x^3y^2$

$\frac{5!}{3!\left(5-3\right)!}x^2y^3=10x^2y^3$

$\frac{5!}{4!\left(5-4\right)!}x^1y^4=5xy^4$

$\frac{5!}{5!\left(5-5\right)!}x^0y^5=y^5$

so substituting all the solved results in the expression

$=x^5+5x^4y+10x^3y^2+10x^2y^3+5xy^4+y^5$

Therefore,

$\left(x\:+y\right)^5=x^5+5x^4y+10x^3y^2+10x^2y^3+5xy^4+y^5$

Find the smallest 4 digit number such that when divided by 35, 42 or 63 remainder is always 5

alex41 [277]

The smallest such number is 1055.

We want to find $x$ such that

$\begin{cases}x\equiv5\pmod{35}\\x\equiv5\pmod{42}\\x\equiv5\pmod{63}\end{cases}$

The moduli are not coprime, so we expand the system as follows in preparation for using the Chinese remainder theorem.

$x\equiv5\pmod{35}\implies\begin{cases}x\equiv5\equiv0\pmod5\\x\equiv5\pmod7\end{cases}$

$x\equiv5\pmod{42}\implies\begin{cases}x\equiv5\equiv1\pmod2\\x\equiv5\equiv2\pmod3\\x\equiv5\pmod7\end{cases}$

$x\equiv5\pmod{63}\implies\begin{cases}x\equiv5\equiv2\pmod 3\\x\equiv5\pmod7\end{cases}$

Taking everything together, we end up with the system

$\begin{cases}x\equiv1\pmod2\\x\equiv2\pmod3\\x\equiv0\pmod5\\x\equiv5\pmod7\end{cases}$

Now the moduli are coprime and we can apply the CRT.

We start with

$x=3\cdot5\cdot7+2\cdot5\cdot7+2\cdot3\cdot7+2\cdot3\cdot5$

Then taken modulo 2, 3, 5, and 7, all but the first, second, third, or last (respectively) terms will vanish.

Taken modulo 2, we end up with

$x\equiv3\cdot5\cdot7\equiv105\equiv1\pmod2$

which means the first term is fine and doesn't require adjustment.

Taken modulo 3, we have

$x\equiv2\cdot5\cdot7\equiv70\equiv1\pmod3$

We want a remainder of 2, so we just need to multiply the second term by 2.

Taken modulo 5, we have

$x\equiv2\cdot3\cdot7\equiv42\equiv2\pmod5$

We want a remainder of 0, so we can just multiply this term by 0.

Taken modulo 7, we have

$x\equiv2\cdot3\cdot5\equiv30\equiv2\pmod7$

We want a remainder of 5, so we multiply by the inverse of 2 modulo 7, then by 5. Since $2\cdot4\equiv8\equiv1\pmod7$ , the inverse of 2 is 4.

So, we have to adjust $x$ to

$x=3\cdot5\cdot7+2^2\cdot5\cdot7+0+2^3\cdot3\cdot5^2=845$

and from the CRT we find

$x\equiv845\pmod2\cdot3\cdot5\cdot7\implies x\equiv5\pmod{210}$

so that the general solution $x=210n+5$ for all integers $n$ .

We want a 4 digit solution, so we want

$210n+5\ge1000\implies210n\ge995\implies n\ge\dfrac{995}{210}\approx4.7\implies n=5$

which gives $x=210\cdot5+5=1055$ .

The domain of the natural logarithmic function is the set of

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

All real numbers greater than zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any real number greater than zero but lesser than 1 lead to a negative number. When input is 1, the output is zero. Lastly, any real number greater than 1 leads a positive number. Hence, the domain of the natural logartihmic function is the set of all real numbers greater than zero.
