Perhaps I don't understand the question. You only need to choose one pair that adds to 16, any of {1, 15}, {3, 13}, {5, 11}, {7, 9}.

You can choose up to 4 numbers without getting a pair that adds to 16, so if you choose any 5 numbers, at least one pair of them will add to 16.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line is parallel, it will have the same gradient. from this, we can deduce that tbe equation will also start with y = ⅕x.

next, we see that it passes through the point (0,6). what this means is, when x = 0, y = 6 which is better known as the y intercept. so in the form y= mx + b:

the equation of the line is y = ⅕x + 6

a mint plant grows 7/8 in 1 week and 13/16 inch the next week. use a common denominator to write an equivalent fraction for each
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

28/32 and 26/32

Step-by-step explanation:

A common denominator of 8 and 16 is 32.

7/8 = (7 * 4)/(8 * 4) = 28/32

13/16 = (13 * 2)/(16 * 2) = 26/32

Two equivalent fractions with a common denominator are 28/32 and 26/32.
