What would the bottles purchased be and what would the bottles recycled be?

Mathematics

Part A

Your problem statement already shows you the conversion.

Bottles purchased: 5×10¹⁰

Bottles recycled: 8.3×10⁹

Part B

The ratio of bottles purchased to bottles recycled is

... (5×10¹⁰)/(8.3×10⁹) = 0.6×10¹ = 6.0

The number of bottles purchased is 6 times the number of bottles recycle.

N is a positive integer
Murrr4er [49]

Part (1)

n is some positive integer. Let's say for now that n is even. So n = 2k, for some integer k

This means n-1 = 2k-1 is odd since subtracting 1 from an even number leads to an odd number.

Now multiply n with n-1 to get

n(n-1) = 2k(2k-1) = 2m

where m = k(2k-1) is an integer

The result 2m is even showing that n(n-1) is even

------------

Let's say that n is odd this time. That means n = 2k+1 for some integer k

And also n-1 = 2k+1-1 = 2k showing n-1 is even

Now multiply n and n-1

n(n-1) = (2k+1)(2k) = 2k(2k+1) = 2m

where m = k(2k+1) is an integer

We've shown that n(n-1) is even here as well.

------------

So overall, n(n-1) is even regardless if n is even or if n is odd.

Either n or n-1 will be even. If you multiply an even number with any number, the result will be even.

=======================================================

Part (2)

n is some positive integer

2n is always even since 2 is a factor of 2n

2n+1 is always odd because we're adding 1 to an even number. The sequence of integers goes even,odd,even,odd, etc and it does this forever.

-----------

Another way to see how 2n+1 is odd is to divide 2n+1 over 2 and you'll find that we get (2n+1)/2 = 2n/2+1/2 = n+0.5

The 0.5 at the end is not an integer, so there's no way that (2n+1)/2 is an integer; therefore 2n+1 is odd.

Solve for x
Ivan

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The measures of all angles in this geometry are 90 degrees.

  21x +6 = 90

  21x = 84 . . . . . subtract 6

  x = 4 . . . . . . . divide by 21

The data shown on the scatter plot below demonstrates the relationship between the time of day and the total number
viva [34]

Answer:

Good question! The correct answer is a) increases and b) increases.

While the pair of answers a) decreases and b) decreases or the pair a) stays the same and b) stays the same would be technically correct answers, this is the best way of describing the trend of the scatter plot; typically, trends are described by how the dependent or y-variable responds to the independent or x-variable increasing.

Hi, having trouble understanding this question.. as well as solving it.
kramer

-- You have two angles.

-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.

-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________

-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.

-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.

-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
   The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)

-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.

-- What's the size of each share ?  It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.

-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.

-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares.   (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.
____________________________________

Check:

-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ?    18/72 = 1/4  Yes.

-- Are they complementary ?  Do they add up to 90 degrees ?

                                                                       18 + 72  =  90  Yes.

                                                                                 yay !
