every prime number greater than 10 has a digit in the ones place that is included in which set of numbers below?

stich3 [128]

So we can start with the full of possibilities and eliminate them one by one.

The full set is {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}.

Now we know that any prime greater than 2 is odd as otherwise it would have 2 as a factor, so we can eliminate all of these digits that would be an even number, leaving:

{1,3,5,7,9}

We also know that any prime greater than 5 cannot be a multiple of 5 and that all numbers with 5 in the digits are a multiple of 5, so we can eliminate 5.

{1,3,7,9}

We know that 11,13,17 and 19 are all primes, so we cannot eliminate any more of these, leaving the set:

{1,3,7,9} as our answer.

Geri spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday selling a total of 24 magazines orders for her school.The amounts on those 3 days were co

ryzh [129]

The sale on Friday = x = 6

The sale on Saturday = x+2 = 6 + 2 =8

The sale on Sunday = x+4 = 6+4 =10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the sale of Friday

Then

x+2 will be the sale of Saturday

x+4 will be the sale of Sunday

According to the given statement, that the total sales were 24

$x+(x+2)+(x+4) = 24\\x+x+2+x+4 = 24\\3x+6 = 24\\Subtracting\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\3x+6-6=24-6\\3x=18\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{18}{6}\\x=6$

The sale on Friday = x = 6

The sale on Saturday = x+2 = 6 + 2 =8

The sale on Sunday = x+4 = 6+4 =10
