500 (the current collection) + 10 (the weekly addition) x 20 (weeks to add)
500 + 10*20 (Multiplication comes before addition)
500+200
700
Answer:
(B)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a point on the line segment BD, the internal division formula is given by:
Therefore:
Therefore the fraction which compares BC to BD is
If Sadie earns $11.25 per hour, her earnings will vary directly with the number of hours that she has worked per week.
If she made $146.25 in a work week, she worked 13 hours.
13 hours x 11.25 = 146.25
Answer:
No, mn is not even if m and n are odd.
If m and n are odd, then mn is odd as well.
==================================================
Proof:
If m is odd, then it is in the form m = 2p+1, where p is some integer.
So if p = 0, then m = 1. If p = 1, then m = 3, and so on.
Similarly, if n is odd then n = 2q+1 for some integer q.
Multiply out m and n using the distribution rule
m*n = (2p+1)*(2q+1)
m*n = 2p(2q+1) + 1(2q+1)
m*n = 4pq+2p+2q+1
m*n = 2( 2pq+p+q) + 1
m*n = 2r + 1
note how I replaced the "2pq+p+q" portion with r. So I let r = 2pq+p+q, which is an integer.
The result 2r+1 is some other odd number as it fits the form 2*(integer)+1
Therefore, multiplying any two odd numbers will result in some other odd number.
------------------------
Examples:
- 3*5 = 15
- 7*9 = 63
- 11*15 = 165
- 9*3 = 27
So there is no way to have m*n be even if both m and n are odd.
The general rules are as follows
- odd * odd = odd
- even * odd = even
- even * even = even
The proof of the other two cases would follow a similar line of reasoning as shown above.
X/4 + x/5 = 1
5x/20 + 4x/20=1
9x/20 =1
9x = 20
x = 2.22 hours
