Test 43,785 for divisibility by 2, 3, 5, 9, and 10.

43785 is not divisible by 2 because it's not an even number, and this also means it's not divisible by 10 because 10 = 2*5.

The sum of its digits is 4 + 3 + 7 + 8 + 5 = 27, which is divisible by 3 since 27 = 3*9, so 43785 is divisible by 3. We have 43785 = 3*14595.

It would be divisible by 9 if 14595 were also divisible by 3. That number has digital sum 1 + 4 + 5 + 9 + 5 = 24, which is divisible by 3, so 14595 is too and 14595 = 3*4865. So 43785 = 9*4865, and it is indeed divisible by 9.

14595 is clearly divisible by 5 because its ends with a 5.

Point Q is the center of dilation. Lines segment S U is dilated to form line segment S prime U prime. The length of Q S is 3 .2

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dilation rule is $D_{Q,2.5}$ . It means the center of dilatation is point Q and scale factor is 2.5.

Scale factor is the ratio of distance from center to the image of a point and distance from center to the corresponding point.

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{QU'}{QU}$

It is given that QU=4 and scale factor = 2.5.

$2.5=\dfrac{QU'}{4}$

Multiply both sides by 4.

$2.5\times 4=QU'$

$10=QU'$

We know that

$UU'=QU'-QU$

$UU'=10-4$

$UU'=6$

The distance between U' and U is 6 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

A baseball team played 154 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Number of games won = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total games played = 154

The ratio of number of games won to number of games lost = $\frac{5}{2}$

Solution:

Let the number of games won be = $5x$

Thus, number of games lost = $2x$

The total games played can be given as = $5x+2x=7x$

Thus, we have:

$7x=154$

Dividing both sides by 7.

$\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{154}{7}$

∴ $x=22$

So, number of games won = $5\times 22 = 110$

What is the equation in slope intercept form?

patriot [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The line has a slope of -1/3. For lines to be perpendicular there product must equal negative 1

m1(m2)=-1

-m/3=-1

m=3

So we know our line has a slope of three so

y=3x+b, we can solve for the y intercept, b, using point (-2,8)

8=3(-2)+b

8=-6+b

b=14, so our line is

y=3x+14
