5x = 1414
x = 1414 / 5
x = 282.80
The answer is -20 and you solve by putting it in the calculator
The first equation can be simplified down to 3 and -\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Therefore, ">" is correct.
The second equation can be simplified down to 12 and 6.25. Therefore, "<" is incorrect. It should be ">".
15% of 25 is the greatest of the two.
Answer:
25% of 15 is 3.75
15% of 25 is also 3.75
15 - 3.75 = 11.25
25 - 3.75 =21.25
Compare and then determine.
11.25 < 21.25
Answer:
See explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The prime numbers are bold:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
a) We can see that as we go higher, twin primes seem less frequent but even considering that, there is an infinite number of twin primes. If you go high enough you will still eventually find a prime that is separated from the next prime number by just one composite number.
b) I think it's interesting the amount of time that has been devoted to prove this conjecture and the amount of mathematicians who have been involved in this. One of the most interesting facts was that in 2004 a purported proof (by R. F. Arenstorf) of the conjecture was published but a serious error was found on it so the conjecture remains open.
