-1 > -2(x-4) - 5(4x - 7)
-1 > -2x + 8 - 20x + 35
-1 > -22x + 43
-1 - 43 > - 22x
-44 > - 22x
-44/-22 < x

The number 64 has the property that it is divisible by its units digit. How many whole numbers between 10 and 50 have this prope

sineoko [7]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the numbers "tu", where t is the tens digit and u is the units digit.

We can solve this by the "brute force" method — examining each number to see if it satisfies the conditions.

$\begin{array}{cccl}\mathbf{u}&\mathbf{tu}& \textbf{Divisible by u} & \\0 &20, 30, 40 & 0 & \text{Division by zero is impossible}\\1 & 11, 21, 31, 41 & 4& \text{All numbers are divisible by one}\\2 & 12, 22, 32, 42 & 4 & \text{All even numbers are divisible by two}\\3 & 13, 23, 33, 43 & 1 &\text{Only 33 is divisible by three}\\4 & 14, 24, 34, 44 & 2 & \text{Only 24 and 44 are divisible by four}\\5 & 15, 25, 35, 45 & 4 & \text{Numbers ending in 5 are divisible by five}\\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{cccl}6 & 16, 26, 36, 46 & 1 & \text{Only 36 is divisible by six}\\7 & 17, 27, 37, 47 & 0 & \text{None of the numbers is divisible by seven}\\8 & 18, 28, 38, 48 & 1 & \text{Only 48 is divisible by eight}\\9 & 19, 29, 39, 49 & 0 & \text{None of the numbers is divisible by nine}\\& \textbf{TOTAL =} &\mathbf{17}& \\\end{array}\\\text{$\large \boxed{\mathbf{17}}$ numbers between 10 and 50 are divisible by their units digit}$

Use the initial term and the recursive formula to find an explicit formula for the sequence an. Write your answer in simplest fo

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

$a_n = -11-14n$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a_1 = -25$

$a_n = a_{n-1}-14$

Required

The explicit formula

First, calculate $a_2$

Set n=2; So:

$a_2 = a_{2-1}-14$

$a_2 = a_{1}-14$

Substitute -25 for $a_1$

$a_2 = -25-14$

$a_2 = -39$

Calculate the common difference (d)

$d = a_2 - a_1$

$d = -39 --25$

$d = -14$

So, the nth term is:

$a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d$

$a_n = -25+ (n - 1)*-14$

Open bracket

$a_n = -25-14n + 14$

Collect like terms

$a_n = 14-25-14n$

$a_n = -11-14n$

If 840 CLASS eighth graders, making up 4/5 of total eighth, studied algebra during summer, how many eighth graders are enrolled

Anarel [89]

Answer:

1008

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4/5 of eighth graders, or 80%, are enrolled with class, there are still 20% of students that didn't study. That means you add 168, the 20%, and you'll get 1008.
