Answer:

66 jars of jam

Step-by-step explanation:

Elizabeth is selling jam at a farmers market.

She earns $5 for each jar of Jan that she sells

Her goal is to earn $450 during the weekend.

Elizabeth has already made $95 from the sale of her jams and $24 from leading a demonstration

Therefore the total amount that has been made is

= $95 + $24

= $119

Since her target is $450 and she has already made $119 then the amount remaining to complete the target can be calculated as follows

= $450 - $119

= $331

The minimum number of jars that Elizabeth must sell to realize her goal can be calculated as follows

= 331/5

= 66

Hence Elizabeth must sell 66 jars of jam to reach her goal.

For an integer n ≥ 0, show that (n/2) - (-n/2) = n.<br><br> Use greatest integer function
mars1129 [50]

The greatest integer function returns the largest integer smaller than the number you provide it. That is, if <em>n</em> ≤ <em>x</em> < <em>n</em> + 1, where <em>n</em> is an integer, then the "greatest integer of <em>x</em>" is [<em>x</em>] = <em>n</em>.

• Let <em>n</em> be even. Then we can write <em>n</em> = 2<em>k</em> for some integer <em>k</em> ≥ 0. Now,

[<em>n</em>/2] = [<em>k</em>] = <em>k</em>

while

[-<em>n</em>/2] = [-<em>k</em>] = -<em>k</em>

so that

[<em>n</em>/2] - [-<em>n</em>/2] = 2<em>k</em> = <em>n</em>

<em />

• Let <em>n</em> be odd. Then <em>n</em> = 2<em>k</em> + 1 for some integer <em>k</em> ≥ 0. Every odd integer occurs between two even integers, so that

<em>n</em> - 1 < <em>n</em> < <em>n</em> + 1

or equivalently,

2<em>k</em> < <em>n</em> < 2<em>k</em> + 2

so that

<em>k</em> < <em>n</em>/2 < <em>k</em> + 1

It follows that [<em>n</em>/2] = <em>k</em>.

Similarly, if we negative the previous inequality, we have

-<em>k</em> > -<em>n</em>/2 > -(<em>k</em> + 1), or -<em>k</em> - 1 < -<em>n</em>/2 < -<em>k</em>

which means [-<em>n</em>/2] = -<em>k</em> - 1.

So we make the same conclusion,

[<em>n</em>/2] - [-<em>n</em>/2] = <em>k</em> - (-<em>k</em> - 1) = 2<em>k</em> + 1 = <em>n</em>
