Find the value of two numbers if their sum is 12 and thier difference is 4

Prove the following statements: (a) For every integer x, if x is even, then for every integer y, xy is even. (b) For every integ

Murrr4er [49]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Given that x and y is even, we want to prove that xy is also even.

For x and y to be even, x and y have to be a multiple of 2. Let x = 2k and y = 2p where k and p are real numbers. xy = 2k x 2p = 4kp = 2(2kp). The product is a multiple of 2, this means the number is also even. Hence xy is even when x and y are even.

(b) in reality, if an odd number multiplies and odd number, the result is also an odd number. Therefore, the question is wrong. I assume they wanted to ask for the proof that the product is also odd. If that's the case, then this is the proof:

Given that x and y are odd, we want to prove that xy is odd. For x and y to be odd, they have to be multiples of 2 with 1 added to it. Therefore, suppose x = 2k + 1 and y = 2p + 1 then xy = (2k + 1)(2p + 1) = 4kp + 2k + 2p + 1 = 2(kp + k + p) + 1. Let kp + k + p = q, then we have 2q + 1 which is also odd.

(c) Given that x is odd we want to prove that 3x is also odd. Firstly, we've proven above that xy is odd if x and y are odd. 3 is an odd number and we are told that x is odd. Therefore it follows from the second proof that 3x is also odd.

Smo answer these and show work plz

suter [353]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) multiply the three dimension

V = 7 x 2 x 4 = 56 cm^3

2) find the base area

base area = (9 x 3)/2 = 13,5 km^2

multiply the base area for the height

V = 13,5 x 5 = 67,5 km^3

3) find the trapezoid area

trapezoid area = [(base 1 + base 2) x h]/2 = [(4+6) x 1.7]/2 = 8.5 cm^2

mutiply the trapezoid area for the height that the priam would assume if the base will touch the ground

V = 8.5 x 4 = 34 cm^3

4) find the base area

base area = radius^2 x pi = 2^2 x pi = 12,57 yd^2

multiply the base area for the height

V= 12.57 x 6 = 75.40 yd^3

5) find the base area

base area = 9^2 x pi = 81 x pi = 254.47 ft^2

multiply the base area for the height

V = 254.47 x 5 = 1272.35 ft^3

6) multiply the three dimensions

V = 12 x 11 x 9 = 1188 yd^3

7) find the trapezoid area

trapezoid area = [(12+6) x 6.3]/2 = [20 x 6,3]/2 = 63 in^2

mutiply the trapezoid area for the height that the priam would assume if the base will touch the ground

V = 63 x 16 = 1008 in^3

8) find the base area

base area = (leg1 x leg 2)/2 = (4 x 3)/2 = 6 m^2

multiply the base area for the height

V = 6 x 9 = 54 m^3

The gate of a stadium ha two pillars each of height 10ft.with four visible lateral faces and 3ft*3ft bases .the top of eaxh pill

lbvjy [14]

The pillars and the pyramids in the stadium gate means that we have to calculate the area of the items that make up the gate one after the other. At the end of the calculation, the calculated areas are then added up.

The total cost of painting is Rs.21344

First, we calculate the area of 1 side of 1 pillar using:

$A = Height * Base$
