True or false. If a is any odd integer, then a^2 + a is even. Explain this.

Mathematics

Ainat [17]3 years ago

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent an odd number by 2n + 1 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 5 etc.

Substituting:

a^2 + a = (2n + 1)^2 + 2n + 1

=  4n^2 + 4n + 1 + 2n + 1

= 4n^2 + 6n + 2

= 2(2n^2 + 3n + 1)

which is even because any integer multiplied by an even number is even.

This is also true if we use a negative odd integer:

We have 4n^2 + 4n + 1  - 1 - 2n

= 4n^2 + 2n

=  2(2n^2 + n(.

Fraction -> Decimal

4/5 = 0.8

1/8 = 0.125

Decimal -> Percent

0.22 * 100% = 22%

0.47 * 100% = 47%

Percent -> Fraction

34% / 100 = 0.34 = 17/50

25% / 100 = 0.25 = 1/4

Fraction -> Percent

1/3 = 0.33... * 100% = 33.3%

2/5 = 0.4 * 100% = 40%

Decimal -> Fraction

0.65 = 65/100 = 13/20

0.4 = 4/10 = 2/5

Percent -> Decimal

81% / 100 = 0.81

4% / 100 = 0.04

Best of Luck!

Interoperate your solution in the context of the problem.<br> f(10)=1.75r+9
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Simplifying

f(r) = 5 + 1.75r

Multiply f * r

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving

fr = 5 + 1.75r

Solving for variable 'f'.

Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by 'r'.

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Simplifying

f = 5r-1 + 1.75

Reorder the terms:

f = 1.75 + 5r-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Please help me get the right answer?!
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The answer is A, \frac{1}{81}. This is because when plugging in -2 for x, the expression will look like this: 9^{-2}. To make the exponent positive, you have to flip it into a fraction. Then it will be \frac{1}{9^2}. Lastly, you simplify the denominator into 81.
