A number that is less that 7.5 can be used as the lesser of the two consecutive integers with the sum greater than 16, but only if the number used was added with one.

Answer:  The required lesser integer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the lesser of two consecutive integers with a sum greater than 16.

Let n and (n + 1) be the two consecutive integers.

Then, according to the given information, we have

n+(n+1)>16\\\\\Rightarrow 2x+1>16\\\\\Rightarrow 2n>16-1\\\\\Rightarrow 2n>15\\\\\Rightarrow n>\dfrac{15}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow n>7.5.

Thus, the required lesser integer is 8.

Write five ordered pairs in a table to represent a relation that is not a function.
QveST [7]

Answer:

Therefore, the relation of the given ordered pairs does NOT represent a function as that x-coordinate values are repeated.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a relation is basically a set of input and output values, which are expressed in ordered pairs.

A relation may have any set of ordered pairs.

We also know that a function is a set of ordered pairs in which each x-element has only one y-element associated with it.

Consider the five ordered pairs

x                       y

-2                      1

3                       -4

-2                      -7

4                        6

5                         7

The relation is: {(–2, 1), (3, –4), (–2, –6), (4, 6), (5, 7)}

From the table, it is clear that x-coordinate values are repeated.

In other words, x = -2 twice.

Therefore, the relation of the given ordered pairs does NOT represent a function.

Find an equation of variation in which y varies directly as x and y=420 when x= 100. Then find the value of y when x=11.
sweet [91]
Let's Simplify X to equal 1 by dividing by 100. then we divide 420 by 100 to get 4.2, so y=4.2 when x=1, we then multiply by each by 11.

y = 46.2
x = 11

loris [4]

Answer:

5/12

Total number of marbles in the bag

6red+ 4blue + 14 yellow = 24 marbles

Not yellow marbles = 10 marbles

P ( not yellow ) = number of not yellow marbles / total marbles
