Answer:

(i) no, remainder is 6

(ii) no, remainder is 6

(iii) yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is divisible by 9 when the sum of its digits is divisible by 9. (The process of computing the sum of digits is called "casting out 9s".) You can basically treat any 9 as though it were 0.

(i) 3+9+4+6+8+3 = 33, 3+3 = 6. The remainder from division by 9 is 6. 9 is not a factor.

(ii) 1 + 8 + 7 + 2 + 5 + 4 + 6 = 9 + 9 + 9 + 6 = 33, 3+3 = 6. The remainder from division by 9 is 6. 9 is not a factor.

(iii) 5 + 1 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 6 + 9 + 3 + 9 = 27 = 3×9. This is divisible by 9, so the number is divisible by 9. 9 is a factor.

the axis of symmetry of a quadratic equation is x = –3. if one of the zeroes of the equation is 4, what is the other zero?

FinnZ [79.3K]

ANSWER

The other zero is

$x = - 10$

EXPLANATION

The axis of symmetry serves as the midpoint of the two zeroes.

We were given that the axis of symmetry of the quadratic equation is
$x = - 3$

We were also given that, one of the zeroes of the quadratic equation is
$x = 4$

Let the other zero of the quadratic equation be
$x = p$

,then, we apply the midpoint formula to find the value of
$p$

Since it is the x-values of the intercepts that gives the solution, we use only the x-value part of the midpoint formula which is given by,

$\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} = axis \: of \: symmetry$

We substitute to obtain,

$\frac{p + 4}{2} = - 3$

We multiply through by 2 to get,

$p + 4 = - 6$

This implies that,

$p = - 6 - 4$

$p = - 10$

How do you solve 5/8a-27=-7

Ber [7]

First of all you need to get rid of the -27 on the left side, to do so you add 27 to both sides so it becomes:
5/8a=20
Now you can divide it by 5 to get:
1/8a=4
Now multiply it by 8 to get:
a=32

Hope this helps :)

What is the answer to 2a-3=7

ladessa [460]

2a−3=7

Add 3 to both sides.

2a−3+3=7+3

2a=10

Divide both sides by 2.

2a / 2 = 10 / 2

a=5
