-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

3\cdot 4^n+51=3\cdot 4^n+3\cdot 17=3(4^n+17)

So this is divisible by 3.

Now, to prove that this is divisible by 9 = 3*3 we need to prove that

4^n+17 is divisible by 3. We will prove it by induction.

Step 1 - for n = 1

4+17=21= 3*7 this is true

Step 2 - we assume this is true for k so 4^k+17 is divisible by 3

and we check what happens for k+1

4^{k+1}+17=4\cdot 4^k+17=3\cdot 4^k + 4^k+17

3\cdot 4^k is divisible by 3 and

4^k+17 is divisible by 3, by induction hypothesis

So, the sum is divisible by 3.

Step 3 - Conclusion

We just prove that 4^n+17 is divisible by 3 for all positive integers n.

Thanks

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The new ratio is \frac{7}{3} ⇒ (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The given information is</em>

  • 6 parts of yellow paint with 3 parts of blue paints to make green paint
  • The yellow paint adds by 1 part

We need to find the ratio of yellow to blue

<em>Let us find the correct answer</em>

∵ The yellow = 6 parts

∵ The yellow adds by 1 part

∴ The yellow = 6 parts + 1 parts = 7 parts

∵ The blue = 3 parts

∵ The ratio of yellow to blue = \frac{yellow}{blue}

∴ The ratio of yellow to blue = \frac{7}{3}

The new ratio is  \frac{7}{3}

Chose an equation below that represents the line passing through the point (-2,-3) with a slope of -6
olganol [36]
Hey there!

Let's take a look at this problem... Okay so for these questions there is formula known as the point-slope formula that is used...

(y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)

From here on out you substitute in your given values...

(y + 3) = -6(x + 2)
y + 3 = -6x -12
<u>y = -6x -15</u><u />                <----- That's your answer! 

I hope this helped you!
