This is a simple problem based on combinatorics which can be easily tackled by using inclusion-exclusion principle.
We are asked to find number of positive integers less than 1,000,000 that are not divisible by 6 or 4.
let n be the number of positive integers.
∴ 1≤n≤999,999
Let c₁ be the set of numbers divisible by 6 and c₂ be the set of numbers divisible by 4.
Let N(c₁) be the number of elements in set c₁ and N(c₂) be the number of elements in set c₂.

∴N(c₁) = \frac{999,999}{6} = 166666
N(c₂) = \frac{999,999}{4} = 250000
∴N(c₁c₂) = \frac{999,999}{24} = 41667
∴ Number of positive integers that are not divisible by 4 or 6,

N(c₁`c₂`) = 999,999 - (166666+250000) + 41667 = 625000
Therefore, 625000 integers are not divisible by 6 or 4

Erin feeds her dog 7/10 cup of food a day . With 3/10 cup canned and the rest dry . She also gives her dog 1 treat a day . How m
gavmur [86]

Answer:

2\frac{4}{5}\ \ or \ 2.8 \ \ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

-The total portion fed to the dog is 7/10 cup

  • Canned-3/10
  • Dry=7/10-3/10=4/10

-One week has 7 days. we multiply the dry portion per day by the number of days in a week.

Dry= Total -Canned\\\\=\frac{7}{10}-\frac{3}{10}\\\\=0.40 \ cup\\\\Dry \ per \ Week= Dry/ day\times days\\\\=0.40\times 7\\\\=2\frac{4}{5}\  or\  2.8 \ cups

Hence, Erin feed her dog 2 4/5 0r 2.8 cups of dry food

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

kindly check the attached image below to Determine whether the given set S is a subspace of the vector space <u><em>(which is contained within a different vector space. So all the subspace is a kind of vector space in their own way, although it is also defined relative to some of the other larger vector space. The linear subspace is more often than not simply called a subspace whenever the situation serves to differentiate it from other types of subspaces.)</em></u> V.A
