Answer:
Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.
Let the number of silk fibres = a.
It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.
So, we get the equation,
, where 
i.e.
, 
So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.
Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
Answer:
You need to satisfy the equation.
I will solve one.
Step-by-step explanation:
x -2 < -5
now add + 2 to both sides to keep its value.
now we end up with x <-3, which means that the value of x should be less than -3 in order to satisfy the equation.
So -5 is an answer, -4 is an answer, but not -3 because it should be less than -3 not equal.
As for number 9 the dash underneath the less than symbol means that it can equal to.
Hope this helps.

Yes. Prime factorization breaks a composite number into the product of all of the prime factors which 'compose' the number.
