Prove that

pentagon [3]3 years ago
6 0

LStep-by-step explanation:

(a) To proof this statement choose m = 4 and n = -1, from here we have 2(4) + 7(-1) = 1 as required. Hence th statement is true.

(b) To proof this statement choose m = 1 and n = -1, from here we have 15(1) + 12(-1) = 3 as required. Hence the statement is true.

(c) To proof this statement, suppose m and n are integers, since integers are closed under addition and multiplication then 2m, 4n and 2m + 4n are all integers. Obviously 2m and 4n are even integers, therefore their sum is also an even integer. This contradicts the equation 2m + 4m = 7, hence there do not exist integers m and n that satisfy the statement.

(d) To proof this statement, suppose m and n are integers, then 12m, 15n and 12m + 15n are all integers, since integers are closed under addition and multiplication. Factoring out 3 from the sum, we have: 3(4m + 5n). Therefore 3(4m + 5n) = 1 is a contradiction, because it will give 4m + 5n = 1/3 and addition of two integers can never give a fraction.

(e) To proof this statement, suppose m and n are integers, then 15m + 16n = t can be rewritten as 3(5m) + 8(2n) = t. Since integers are closed under multiplication, then 5m and 2n are integers. Let 5m = r and 2n = s, then we have: 3r + 8s = t as required.

(f) To proof this statement, suppose that m and n are both negative integers, we see that 12m + 15n = 1 is clearly impossible because the sum would be less than 0. Therefore, if there exist integers m and n such that 12m + 15n = 1, then they must be positive.

(g) To proof this statement, suppose m is an integer and has the form 4k + 1 for some integer k, then m + 2 = 4k + 1 + 2 = 4k + 3 = 4k + 4 - 1 = 4(k + 1) - 1. Since k is an integer then k + 1 is an integer because integers are closed under addition. Therefore, put j = k + 1. Hence we have 4j - 1.

(h) suppose that m is odd, then there is an n such that m = 2n + 1, therefore m² = (2n + 1)² = 4n² + 4n + 1 = 4(n² + n) + 1. Here, we need a lemma that says: suppose k is an integer, k(k + 1) is an even integer. This can be proven intuitively, when k is odd, the term in the bracket becomes even, and the whole expression is even. If k is even, then automatically the whole expression becomes even. Hence, our lemma is proven intuitively. This implies that n² + n is an even integer and can be replaced by 2k for some k that is an integer. Therefore, we have 4(2k) + 1 = 8k + 1 as required.

(i) suppose that m and n are odd integers such that mn = 4k - 1 for some k that is an integer. If we assume that neither m nor is in the for 4j - 1, then:

mn = (4a + 1)(4b + 1) for some a and b that are integers. Expanding that we have mn = 4(4ab + a + b) + 1 which is not in the form 4k - 1 for some k that is an integer as assumed. Therefore, if m and n are odd integers such that mn is in the form 4k - 1 for some k that is an integer, then m and n are in the form 4j - 1 for some j that is an integer.

Rearrange w=3(2a+b)-4 to make a the subject
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

w-6b+4/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer you have to first open the bracket which will give you w=6a+6b-4.You then take 6b-4 to the other side to meet w after this divide all by 6 to make a the subject of the formula.

Help with this question please answer choices are<br><br> 35°<br> 55°<br> 125°<br> 145°
nalin [4]

Answer:

m /_ 1 is the same as m /_ 4 because they are vertical angels which equals to 35 degrees.

aince g and i are parallel :

m /_ 4 must equal m/_ 12 because they are exterior angels.

So the answer is 35 degrees

Find the measure of an angle that is positive and less than 360° in standard position for each reference angle.
Kazeer [188]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 112°
  • 285°
  • 202°

Step-by-step explanation:

In quadrant II, the standard position angle is found by subtracting the reference angle from 180°.

  180° -68° = 112°

__

In quadrant IV, the standard position angle is found by subtracting the reference angle from 360°.

  360° -75° = 285°

__

In quadrant III, the standard position angle is found by adding 180° to the reference angle.

  180° +22° = 202°

What is the logarithmic form of the equation e5x ≈ 4768?
professor190 [17]

Answer: The answer is (c) ln 4768 = 5x.

Step-by-step explanation:  The given equation is

e^{5x}=4768.

We are to find the logarithmic form of the above equation.

We will be using the following properties of logarithm :

(i)~\ln a^b=b\ln a,\\\\(ii)~\ln e=1.

The solution is as follows:

e^{5x}=4768\\\\\Rightarrow \ln{e^{5x}}=\ln 4768\\\\\Rightarrow 5x\ln e=\ln 4768\\\\\Rightarrow 5x\times 1=\ln4768\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=4768.

Thus, the correct option is (c).
