Find the number in the form x3579x that is divisible by 42.

Numerical values for the first "x" would include the integers 1-9. The "grunt" method here would be to divide 13579x by 42, then 23579x by 42, and so on, to determine whether or not a value of x can be found that results in NO remainder. Let's assume that "x" has the same value at the end of each "x3479x as it does in the beginning:


135791

235792

335793


and so on.


Note immediately that x must be an even digit, since no multiple of 42 results in an odd final digit to x3479x.


Thus, from x=1 through 9, we eliminate 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and investigate x = 2, 4, 6, 8.


Does 42 divide into 235792 without a remainder? No.


Does 42 divide into 435794 without a remainder? No.


Does 42 divide into 635796 without a remainder? Yes. The quotient is 15138.


So: the desired number is 635796, and 42 / 635796 = 15138.

Haven't seen this one on Brainly yet.


x3579x = 100000 x + 35790 + x


100000 = 2380 × 42 + 40


35790 = 852×42 + 6


Working mod 42,


100000 x + 35790 + x  \equiv 40 x + 6 + x \equiv  41x + 6 \equiv 6-x  \pmod{42}


So basically we need 6-x to be a multiple of 42, so between 0 and 9 that's x=6.


So our number is


635796 = 15138 × 42

Step-by-step explanation:

2b - 5b is -3b so it leaves the equation with -3b + 7 + 3b

-3b + 3b cancells out to 0 so it leaves the final answer to 7

Explain why the intercepts, on their own, cannot be used to graph the relation 5x+9y= 0.
goldfiish [28.3K]
5x + 9y = 0

to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
5x + 9(0) = 0
5x = 0
x = 0

to find the y int, sub in 0 for x and solve for y
5(0) + 9y = 0
9y = 0
y = 0

the reason u cannot use just the intercepts is because the line goes through the origin (0,0)....The intercepts coincide giving u only 1 point...and that is not enough to graph a line

How do I solve this? It's so confusing.
Neporo4naja [7]
If I follow the angle degrees that they gave, your answers would be as follows:
I=145°
S=155° or 90°
E=78°
L=120° or 55°

Maybe this is right, sorry it took so long.
