Are negative numbers prime or composite?

2 answers:

5 0

depends on the value of said negative number. even if they are negative it has nothing to do with them being prime or composite. 3, for example, will always be a composite number. everything that can be multiplied evenly by 3 will also always be a composite number.

The slope of two lines are 5/6 and 2/p. determine the value of p that will make the lines

Anni [7]

Parallel: the lines have = slopes. We thus need 5/6 to equal 2/p. then 5p must equal 12, and p = 12/5. (answer)

Check: Is 5/6 = 2 / (12/5)? YES

Perp.: The lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.

Then -6/5 = 2/p, or

-6 2
---- = ----
5 p Thus, -6p = 10, and p = -5/3 (answer)
