Answer:

The smallest positive number is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the smallest positive number = x

45 is a multiple of 9 ⇒ 9 x 5 = 45

the next multiple of 9 after 55 is  63

= 9 x 7

= 63

Thus, x + 55 = 63

x = 63 - 55

x = 8

The greatest common factor of 45 and 63 = 9

Therefore, the smallest positive number is 8

Brigitte is shorter than 5 feet. (Brigitte's height=h). Help please
KonstantinChe [14]

Brigitte is shorter than 5 feet. (Brigitte's height=h)

We write this in  inequality form

Brigitte's height is h

So 'h' is shorter than 5 feet

Shorter means less than so we use < symbol. We should not use = symbol because height is shorter than 5 not equal to 5.

Suppose if it is given ' height is more than 5 feet ' then we use greater than symbol (>)

h is less than 5 feet

h < 5

Inequality is h < 5

Find all x ∈ Z satisfying each of the following equations.3x = 2 (mod 7)
Vlada [557]

Answer:

7x−3=7k,x=7k+3,k∈ℤ

Step-by-step explanation:

3x ≡ 2 (mod 7)

3 is a solution, since 3×3−2=7.

All solutions are 3+7ℤ

y=3x−2/7=3(x−3)+7/7=3(x−3)/7+1

7x−3=7k,x=7k+3,k∈ℤ

11. A roofer calculates his bid price using the formula P = 1.85s + 4.2f, where s is the area of the roof in square feet and f i
storchak [24]

Replace f with 190, replace P with 4148 and solve for  s:

4148 = 1.85s + 4.2(190)

Simplify:

4148 = 1.85 + 798

Subtract 798 from both sides:

3350 = 1.85s

Divide both sides by 1.85:

s = 1,810.81

Rounded to nearest square foot = 1811 square feet.

9 mugs for $45<br><br> What is the rate?<br><br> And what is the unit rate?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:  The unit rate is $5 per  mug.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the the unit rate, you will find the amount  one mug will cost.

If there are 9 mugs  then to get it to one, you will have to divide 9 by 9, and the same way you will have to divide 45 by 9.

45 / 9 = 5
