Because multiples are "many" so you can keep counting on and on and on and you'll keep getting the numbers that add onto

ex: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, etc.    and prime numbers are numbers with only 1 factor ex: 5 is prime because first of all it is an odd number, and the only multiplication equations that go into 5 are: 1 x 5 = 5 nothing else so, it is prime and the factors of 5 are: 1,5 so its prime. (i think i am explaining too much) and also a reminder is: factors= _x_=20 you use this for factors and you add the same number to a number and keep going with multiples.


hope this helps, and sorry if i explained too much.. if i forgot something you need to know, let me know :P

almond37 [142]

Answer:

s = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the line of best fit for the data is p=25s+40.

Where p is no. of points and s is no. fo strikes

We need to find the number of strikes made by a bowler with 140 points.

Put p = 140

p=25s+40

140 = 25s+40

Subtract 40 to both sides,

140-40 = 25s+40-40

100 = 25s

⇒ s = 4

So, there are 4 strikes made by a bowler with 140 points.
