IS IT POSSIBLE FOR A COMPOSITE NUMBER TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE PRIME FACTORIZATION?

1 answer:

4 0

No, because now we can consider "The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic", this Theorem states; "that every integer greater than 1 either is prime itself or is the product of prime numbers, and that, although the order of the primes in the second case is arbitrary, the primes themselves are not"
<span>Therefore there is only one prime factorization of a composite number.

</span>It is actually not possible to not have any prime numbers, because even prime numbers are composed by only one prime number, so composite numbers have more them one prime number in them.

A health club charges non-members $5 per day to swim and $9 per day for an exercise class. Members pay a yearly fee of $300 plus

RSB [31]

Answer:

22 days PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIEST

Step-by-step explanation:

Nonmember:

swim: $5

exercise: $9

Per day: 9 + 5 = $14

Member:

$300 per year plus $4 per day for an exercise class. $0 for swimming

300 ÷ 14 = 21.428 21 days x $14 = $294 22 days x $14 = $308

So.... if he goes to the gym at least 22 days he will save money with the membership.

Rob peeled 125 oranges in 5 hours. At that rate, how many oranges<br> would he peel in 12 minutes?

marin [14]

Answer:

$\boxed {\tt 5 \ oranges}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion.

$\frac{oranges}{minutes} =\frac{oranges}{minutes}$

He can peel 125 oranges in 5 hours. First, let's find the minutes in 5 hours.

There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so multiply 60 and 5 (60*5=300). There are 300 minutes in 5 hours.

$\frac{125 \ oranges}{300 \ minutes}=\frac{oranges}{minutes}$

We don't know how many oranges he can peel in 12 minutes. So we say he can peel x oranges in 12 minutes.

$\frac{125 \ oranges}{300 \ minutes}=\frac{x \ oranges}{12 \ minutes}$

$\frac{125 \ }{300 \ }=\frac{x \ }{12 }$

Solve for x by isolating it. x is being divided by 12. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the proportion by 12.

$12*\frac{125 \ }{300 \ }=\frac{x \ }{12 \ }*12$

$12*\frac{125 \ }{300 \ }=x$

$12*0.416666667=x$

$5=x$

Rob can peel 5 oranges in 12 minutes.

The cost of putting in automatic sprinklers for a lawn largely depends upon the length of Poole that must be laid. The controlle

OLga [1]

Answer:

$c(F) = 135 + 2.5F$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Controller cost = $135

System cost = $2.50 per foot of pipeline

The total cost depends upon the length of Pole.

Let the system requires F feet of pipeline.

Total cost will be given by the equation:

$c(F) = \text{Controller cost + System cost(Feet of pipeline required)}\\c(F) = 135 + 2.5F$

is the required expression for total cost

F: feet of pipeline required

c(F): Total cost of installation

Answer:

C) The cost increases $2.50 for every additional pair of shoes rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice a pattern. When you buy a new pair of shoes, the total gets increased by $2.50 depending on how many pairs of shoes you buy. For example, starting with 1 pair of shoes, it costs $2.50, but when you buy another pair, the cost is $2.50+$2.50=2*$2.50=$5.00, and so on...

Therefore, the correct choice is C
