1. Information is not sufficient

2. Information is not sufficient

Step-by-step explanation:

Question Modified

If a,b, and c are prime numbers, do (a+b) and c have a common factor that is greater than 1?

(1) a,b, and c are all different prime numbers

(2) c≠2

Explanation

1. Let's assume values of 1,3 and 5 to a, b, and c respectively

a + b = 1+3 = 4

4 and 5 do not have any common factor aside 1

Let's assume values of 1,3 and 2 to a,b and c respectively

a + b = 1+3 = 4

4 and 2 have a common factor of 2

So, the available information is not sufficient

2.

Let's assume values of 2,7 and 3 to a b and c response

a + b = 2 + 7 = 9

9 and 3 have a common factor of 3

Also, let's assume values of 2,7 and 5 to a, b and c

a + b = 2 + 7 = 9

9 and 5 do not have a common factor

So, the available information is also not sufficient to answer the question.

A number is multiplied by 20, and that product is added to 5. The sum is equal to the product of 5 and 13.
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you will pick the first equation :

(x*20)

Then the next,

(x*20) + 5

Then the last equation,

(x*20) + 5 = 5*13

Then you solve

20x + 5 = 65

20x = 65 - 5

20x = 60

20x/20 = 60/20

x = 3
