Answer:

Therefore the sum of three odd numbers is always an odd number. Hence Proved. Let the number is 15,13 and 3 then 15=2*7+1 13=2*6+1 3=2*1+1 where 1,6 and 7 now 15+13+3=2*7+1+2*6+1+281+11 =2(7+6+1)+3 =2*14+3(24 is our 'm') and 2*14≠30. OR 15+13+3≠30

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is that you cannot get 30 by adding any three odd numbers because addition of 3 odd numbers always give another odd number and hence 30 which is an even number cannot be achieved. 2n-1 where n is a natural number.

malfutka [58]

If she maintains her average amount of movies bought every week, then she will buy 20 DVDs in 10 weeks. Explanation: she buys 4 every week, so if we want to find out how many are in 10 weeks, we must multiply two until we get to 10 ( five weeks ) then multiply that buy her average of movies. And that is how we get the answer of 20 DVDs! ( her at least I did )

Anyways, hope this helps!

Solve the systems of equations by substitution. 2x+y=-2 3x-y=7

lukranit [14]

Answer:

To solve the system of equations by substitution:

2x+y=-2

3x-y=7

first solve for y:

2x+y=-2

y=-2x-2

Then plug ^^ equation for y in the other equation

3x-(-2x-2)=7

5x+2=7

5x=5

x=1

Then solve for y:

2(1)+y=-2

y=-4

Final answer is x = 1 and y = -4

Hope it helps!

Devon records 4 hours of reality shows on her DVR she records comedy shows for 3/8 of that amount of time. Devon watches all the

Alenkinab [10]

The number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows by Devon is 11

Solution:

Given, Devon records 4 hours of reality shows on her DVR

she records comedy shows for 3/8 of that amount of time.

$\rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \text { of } 4 \text { hours } \rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \times 4 \rightarrow \frac{3}{2} \text { hours }$

Devon watches all the reality and comedy shows in half-hour sittings.

We have to find the number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows

Now, number of half hour sittings is given as

$=\frac{\text { total time of videos }}{\text { time for hlaf hour sitting }}$

$\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{4 \text { hours for reality shows }+\frac{3}{2} \text { hours for comedy shows }}{\frac{1}{2} \text { hours for each sitting }}} \\\\ {=\frac{4+\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{8+3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{11}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{11}{2} \times \frac{2}{1}=11}\end{array}$

Hence Devon needs 11 sittings
