The number 4 is the smallest positive integer that has exactly three factors: 1, 2, and 4. If k is the next-highest integer that

also has exactly three factors, what is the sum of the three factors of k

To solve this problem, we must do a method of trial and error to find for the next highest integer with exactly three factors. We know that the value of k must be greater than 4, therefore by using trial and error to find for the correct answer:

 

Factors of 5:1, 5

Factors of 6:1, 2, 3, 6

Factors of 7:1, 7

Factors of 8:1, 2, 4, 8

Factors of 9:1, 3, 9

 

Therefore we stop at 9 since this is already our answer. It has exactly three factors.

The sum of the factors is:

sum of factors = 1 + 3 + 9

<span>sum of factors = 13</span>

Which equation is solved for the variable h? v=by/3
max2010maxim [7]
The equation is given as: v=by/3 but it is actually <span>v=bh/3
</span><span>
Ans, now, we need to solve this for variable h.

So, </span>v=bh/3
On cross multiplying, we get,
3 × v = bh
On dividing the complete equation by "b" we get,
(3×v) / b = (bh)/b 

or  (3×v) / b = h

Thus, the value of h is : 3v/b

Solve the rational equation 1/n-4 - 2/n = 3/4-n
Leokris [45]

Answer:

n=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation: \[\frac{1}{n-4}-\frac{2}{n}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

Simplifying the Left Hand Side of the equation by taking the LCM of the denominator terms:

\[\frac{n}{n*(n-4)}-\frac{2*(n-4)}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{n - 2*(n-4)}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{n - 2n + 8}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[\frac{8 - n}{n*(n-4)}=\frac{3}{4-n}\]

=> \[(8-n)*(4-n) =n*(n-4)*3\]

=> \[n-8 =3n\]

=> \[2n =8\]

=> n = 4

Charlie's garage has a rectangular floor space. Its length is 3 times its width. Charlie extends the width of his garage to 6 m,
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The percentage change is 140%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

L= 3W_1 ---- initial dimension

W_2 = 6m --- new width

A_2 = 45m^2 --- new dimension

Required

The percentage increment

The length remains constant because only the width is extended.

The new area is:

Area =Length * Width

A_2=L * W_2

Make L the subject

L = \frac{A_2}{ W_2}

Substitute values for A and W

L = \frac{45m^2}{6m}

L = \frac{45m}{6}

L = 7.5m --- this is the length of the garden

Calculate the initial width:

L= 3W_1

Make W1 the subject

W_1 = \frac{1}{3} * L

W_1 = \frac{1}{3} * 7.5

W_1 = 2.5

So, the initial area is:

A_1 = L_1 * W_1

A_1 = 2.5 * 7.5

A_1 = 18.75

The percentage change in area is:

\%A = \frac{A_2 - A_1}{A_1}

\%A = \frac{45 - 18.75}{18.75}

\%A = \frac{26.25}{18.75}

\%A = 1.4

Express as percentage

\%A = 1.4*100\%

\%A = 140\%
