What is the largest digit N for which 2345N is divisible by 6?

1 answer:

3 0

Consider this option (this is not the only way):
1. according to the condition 2345N is divisible by 6, it means, that N is even number (0;2;4;6 or 8).
2. 6=3*2, then the number 2345N is divisible by 3 also. It means, that the number (2+3+4+5+N)=(14+N) is divisible by 3, where N={0|2|4|6|8}.
3. using items 1 and 2:
(14+4)=18; only 18 is divided by 3, it means that N=4.

answer: 4.

Note also, that only 23451; 23454 and 23457 are divided by 3. Only 23454 is divided by 6 (23454/6=3909).

Line E passes through the points (2, 3) and (4, -3). What is the slope of a line perpendicular to line E?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ 2 &,& 3~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~ 4 &,& -3~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-3-3}{4-2}\implies \cfrac{-6}{2}\implies \cfrac{-3}{1}$

now, a line perpendicular to that one, will have a "negative reciprocal" slope, thus

$\bf \textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for}\quad \cfrac{-3}{1}\\\\
negative\implies +\cfrac{3}{ 1}\qquad reciprocal\implies +\cfrac{ 1}{3}\implies \cfrac{1}{3}$

Find the total surface area of this cone, leaving your answer in terms of pi

salantis [7]

Answer:

Surface area = 70π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area = πr² + πrl

Surface area = (π × 5 × 5) + (π × 5 × 9)

Surface area = (25π) + (45π)

Surface area = 70π cm²

Kaseem had 1/4 box of candy. He ate 1/2 of the candy. What fraction of the box did Kaseem eat? Show all work.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

If Beth had 1/4 a box of candy, and she ate 1/2 of the remaining candy, she would have 1/8 because the equation is calling for you to multiply 1/4 by 1/2 or divide 1/4 by 2. To multiply two fractions, you multiply straight across. When you do so, 1x1 equals 1 and 4x2 equals 8, leaving you with an answer of 1/8!
