A) x + y = 17
B) x * y = -308
B) y = -308 / x Substituting this into A)
A) x -308 / x = 17
A) x^2 -308 = 17x
A) x^2 -17x -308 = 0
x = 28
y = -11
Answer:
The set of natural numbers is the set of all positive integers, then this set is:
{1, 2, 3, ...}
and the 24th letter of the alphabet is x
Now we want to write the expression given in the sentence "It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
We can "break" this in parts, so it is easier to understand.
Then:
"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers..."
is:
1 + 2 + 3
Then:
"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
This can be written as:
(1 + 2 + 3) + x
Now we can analyze the complete sentence:
"It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"
This is equal to the expression we found above plus one, then we can write this as:
[(1 + 2 + 3) + x] + 1
[6 + x] + 1
6 + x + 1
7 + x

Factors of 39: 1, 3, 13, and 39.
Factors of 65: 1, 5, 13, and 65.
The common factors for 39 and 65 are 1 and 13.
The greatest common factor is 13.
Answer:
Correct option: C) 90 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have a tangent segment to a circle, the angle made with the radius of the circle and the tangent segment is always a right angle, that is, 90 degrees. In other words, the radius and the tangent segment are always perpendicular.
If QR is tangent to the circle P, and PQ is the radius of the circle, the segment PQ is perpendicular to the segment QR, so the angle PQR is equal 90 degrees.
Correct option: C)
