Answer:

The value of A is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

- The number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is a number

  divisible by 3

- Ex: 126 is divisible by 3 because the sum of its digits = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

  and 6 is divisible by 3

- The number is divisible by 5 if its ones digit is zero or 5

- Ex: 675 is divisible by 5 because its ones digit is 5

        890 is divisible by 5 because its ones digit is 0

- We are looking for the value of A in the 4-digit number 3A5A which

  makes the number divisible by both 3 and 5

∵ A is in the ones position

∴ A must be zero or 5

- Let us try A = 0

∵ A = 0

∴ The number is 3050

∵ The sum of the digits of the number = 3 + 0 + 5 + 0 = 8

∵ 8 is not divisible by 3

∴ 3050 is not divisible by both 3 and 5

∴ A can not be zero

- Let us try A = 5

∵ A = 5

∴ The number is 3555

∵ The sum of the digits of the number = 3 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 18

∵ 18 is divisible by 3

∴ 3555 is divisible by both 3 and 5

∴ A must be equal 5

* <em>The value of A is 5</em>

Answer:

The first question:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  -x - 1  =   -1 • (x + 1)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.1      Solve  :    -x-1 = 0

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

                     -x = 1

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x = -1

One solution was found :

                  x = -1

NISA [10]

Answer: Choice A

Ahmed started 6 floors above ground level, then he went down 8 floors

The +6 or simply 6, is positive, so he's on the 6th floor to start. Then adding on -8, which is the same as subtracting 8, moves him down 8 floors.

6 + (-8) = 6 - 8 = -2 indicates he's 2 floors below ground level, so he's in basement level 2 (perhaps some kind of parking garage).
