Answer:Take the alternating sum of the digits in the number, read from left to right. If that is divisible by 11, so is the original number. So, for instance, 2728 has alternating sum of digits 2 – 7 + 2 – 8 = -11. Since -11 is divisible by 11, so is 2728.
Hope this helped
The answer is A. The data is a sample, so you can determine every answer with the word 'population' in it to be wrong.
Ratio is written in x:y. therefore for this case, red:yellow
5 : 7
since the question states that there are 392 yellow poms, the 7 units represents 392 yellow poms. now you have to gind what is one unit and then multiply by 5 to find the number of red poms.
392 represents 7 units
1 unit: 392/7=56
5 units: 5×56=280 red poms
therefore the answer is 280 red poms which is C.
-- They're losing employees . . . so you know that the line will slope down, and
its slope is negative;
-- They're losing employees at a steady rate . . . so you know that the slope is
the same everywhere on the line; this tells you that the graph is a straight line.
I can see the function right now, but I'll show you how to go through the steps to
find the function. I need to point out that these are steps that you've gone through
many times, but now that the subject pops up in a real-world situation, suddenly
you're running around in circles with your hair on fire screaming "What do I do ?
Somebody give me the answer !".
Just take a look at what has already been handed to you:
0 months . . . 65 employees
1 month . . . . 62 employees
2 months . . . 59 employees
You know three points on the line !
(0, 65) , (1, 62) , and (2, 59) .
For the first point, 'x' happens to be zero, so immediately
you have your y-intercept ! ' b ' = 65 .
You can use any two of the points to find the slope of the line.
You will calculate that the slope is negative-3 . . . which you
might have realized as you read the story, looked at the numbers,
and saw that they are <u>firing 3 employees per month</u>.
("Losing" them doesn't quite capture the true spirit of what is happening.)
So your function ... call it ' W(n) ' . . . Workforce after 'n' months . . .
is <em>W(n) = 65 - 3n</em> .
Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y varies inversely with x setup is:
y = k/x
7 = 
(find 'k')
k = 7/1 · 2/3
k = 14/3
use what you know about 'k' and 'x' to solve for 'y'
y = 14/3 ÷ 7/3 (remember to multiply by the reciprocal when dividing fractions)
y = 14/3 · 3/7
y = 2
