The product of any two numbers is composite ( true/false) and why?

1 answer:

7 0

<u><em>FALSE.</em></u><em></em>
A composite number is the opposite of a prime number. This is false because of the possibility of the following scenario:
The two numbers are 1 and a prime number.
This is because <em>one multiplied by any number is that number.</em> A prime number cannot become a composite number just because it is being multiplied by one. For example:
1 x 7 = 7 (prime)
Hope this helps!

A goat and a cow together weigh 190 kg 640 g. The weight of the goat is 59 kg 720 g. Find the weight of the cow

AVprozaik [17]

Answer: 130 kg 920 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The weight of the goat is 59 kg 720 g

The combined weight of goat and cow is 190 kg 640 g

Suppose, the weight of the cow is x kg

We know, 1 kg=1000 g

Converting weight into kg

Goat weight

$=59+0.720\\=59.720\ kg$

Total weight

$=190+0.640\\=190.640\ kg$

Then, the cow weight is given by

$\Rightarrow 190.640-59.720\\\Rightarrow 130.920\ kg\ \text{or}\ 130\ kg\ 920\ g$

The weight of an object on Venus is approximately 9/10 of its weight on Earth. The weight of an object

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

An object weighs 140 pounds more on Jupiter than it weighs on Venus. By simple algebraic operations, the required value is calculated.

<h3>What are the algebraic operations?</h3>

Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are the basic algebraic operations that are used for many computations.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that,

An object's weight on Venus is approximately 9/10 of its weight on earth. I.e., WV = 9/10 WE

An object's weight on Jupiter is approximately 23/10 of its weight on earth. I.e., WJ = 23/10 WE

If an object weighs 100 pounds on earth, then

The weight of the object on Venus is

WV = 9/10 × 100 = 90 pounds

The weight of the object on Jupiter is

WJ = 23/10 × 100 = 230

Thus, the difference between them is 230 - 90 = 140 pounds.

So, the object weighs 140 pounds more on Jupiter than on Venus.

A scientist needs 4.8 liters of a 12% alcohol solution. She has available a 22% and a 10% solution. How many liters of the 22% a

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

4.0 L of 10%
0.8 L of 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

For mixture problems, it is convenient to define a variable to represent the amount of the greatest contributor. Let x represent the amount of 22% solution in the mix. Then 4.8-x is the amount of 10% solution.

The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...

0.22x +0.10(4.8-x) = 0.12(4.8)

Eliminating parentheses, we have ...

0.22x -0.10x +0.10(4.8) = 0.12(4.8)

Subtracting (0.10)(4.8) and combining x-terms gives ...

0.12x = 0.02(4.8)

x = (0.02/0.12)(4.8) = 0.8 . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient

The scientist needs 0.8 L of 22% solution and 4.0 L of 10% solution.

Zack flips a coin a rolls a number cube with sides labeled 1 to 6. What is the probability that he gets heads and a number great

Nitella [24]

To get heads: 1/2 because there are two sides to a coin.

There are 6 sides on a cube and 2 numbers are greater than 4 (5 and 6) so 2/6

Now multiply: 1/2 * 2/6 = 2/12 = 1/6

1/6 is the final answer.
