Answer:

No, I do not agree with the conjecture because 1 is not a prime number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number is one that can be divided by 1 and itself only. Thus it can be expressed in 2 factors only, 1 and the number itself.

Examples are; 2, 3, 5, 13, 19 , 23 etc.

So, 2 = 1 x 2

      3 = 1 x 3

     23 = 1 x 23

Prime numbers must be expressed as the product of 1 and the number.

The conjecture that every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers is false. Because 1 is not a prime number, since it has no 2 factors.

NEED HELP ASAP!! <br><br> Use the function below to find F(3)
kvv77 [185]
It’s gonna be 1/125.

Since it’s F(3), you need to plug the 3 into the x. Then expand it into 1/5 times 1/5 times 1/5, which gets you 1/125

What is the value of n?
sineoko [7]
A. 69 degrees

exterior angles should equal 360 degrees so just add 131+160= 291 , 360-291= 69 degrees

or u can find it by finding the interior angle degrees by using supplementary angles. 180-131= 49 , 180-160= 20, 20+49=69, 180-69= 111 so the missing exterior angle corresponding interior is 111 and u can use supplementary angles to find the exterior. 180-111= 69 degrees
