How many multiples of 4 are there in {n; 37< n <1001}?

s2008m [1.1K]

Let's begin by listing the first few multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 38, 40, 44. So, between 1 and 37 there are 9 such multiples: {4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36}. Note that 4 divided into 36 is 9.

Let's experiment by modifying the given problem a bit, for the purpose of discovering any pattern that may exist:

<span>How many multiples of 4 are there in {n; 37< n <101}? We could list and then count them: {40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100}; there are 16 such multiples in that particular interval. Try subtracting 40 from 100; we get 60. Dividing 60 by 4, we get 15, which is 1 less than 16. So it seems that if we subtract 40 from 1000 and divide the result by 4, and then add 1, we get the number of multiples of 4 between 37 and 1001:

1000
-40
-------
960

Dividing this by 4, we get 240. Adding 1, we get 241.

Finally, subtract 9 from 241: We get 232.

There are 232 multiples of 4 between 37 and 1001.

Can you think of a more straightforward method of determining this number? </span>

Which of the following gives all of the sets that contain -1/2?

fiasKO [112]

ANSWER

The set of all rational numbers and the set of all real numbers.

EXPLANATION

The set of rational numbers contains all numbers that can be written in the form,

$\frac{a}{b}$

where a and b are integers and b≠0.

The given number is

$- \frac{1}{2}$

It belongs to the set of rational numbers.

The set of rational numbers is a subset of the set of real numbers.

Hence

$- \frac{1}{2}$
also belongs to the set of real numbers.

The correct answer is A.

The product of a number and 4 increased by 16 is -2

sesenic [268]

4x+16=-2

Subtract 16 from both sides
4x=-18

Divide both sides by 4
x=-18/4
x= -9/2

Final answer: x=-9/2
