Twin Primes Conjecture A natural number is called a prime number if it has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. 1 is not a prime n

umber because it has exactly one factor. If a number is not prime it is called composi -List the numbers 1 through 31 and circle the primes. What do you see? -You might notice that some pairs of prime numbers have exactly one composite number between them. Such pairs of prime numbers include 3&5, 11&13, 17&19, 29&31. These pair numbers are called twin primes. -Write your first impression regarding this question: Are there an infinite number of twin primes? Provide a justification for your thinking. -Do a little research on the twin prime conjecture and describe at least one interesting fact ti you find.

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime numbers are bold:

1  2  3 4  5 6  7  8  9  10  11 12  13  14  15  16  17

18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25  26  27  28  29  30  31

a) We can see that as we go higher, twin primes seem less frequent but even considering that, there is an infinite number of twin primes. If you go high enough you will still eventually find a prime that is separated from the next prime number by just one composite number.

b) I think it's interesting the amount of time that has been devoted to prove this conjecture and the amount of mathematicians who have been involved in this. One of the most interesting facts was that in 2004 a purported proof (by R. F. Arenstorf) of the conjecture was published but a serious error was found on it so the conjecture remains open.

kondaur [170]

To the nearest percentage point, what percentage of students who play a sport don’t play a musical instrument?

First, using the information given, fill out the chart with the rest of the data (in the image attached)

Then find the number of students who play a sport and don’t play a musical instrument, which in the chart is 11

Place 11 over the total: \frac{11}{25} and convert to a percentage:

Answer:

1-c

2-b

3-a

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 7y=14

y=2

-7y=-14

y=2

so the equation has one solution

2. 0=0

so the equation has infinite solution

3. 0=2 false

so the equation has no solution

Can anyone tell me why by direct substitution of x, the equation (circled ones) equals to the indeterminate form, 0/0? When you
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

See explanation and hopefully it answers your question.

Basically because the expression has a hole at x=3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h(x)=( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )

This function, h, has a hole in the curve at hx-15=0 if it also makes the numerator 0 for the same x value.

Solving for x in that equation:

Adding 15 on both sides:

hx=15

Dividing both sides by h:

x=15/h

For it be a hole, you also must have the numerator is zero at x=15/h.

x^2-k=0 at x=15/h gives:

(15/h)^2-k=0

225/h^2-k=0

k=225/h^2

So if we wanted to evaluate the following limit:

Lim x->15/h ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )

Or

Lim x->15/h ( x^2-(225/h^2) ) / ( hx-15 ) you couldn't use direct substitution because of the hole at x=15/h.

We were ask to evaluate

Lim x->3 ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )

Comparing the two limits h=5 and k=225/h^2=225/25=9.
