  • 2
  • 9

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

Explanation:

7+6 = 13. Divide this over 5 to get 13/5 = 2 remainder 3. The quotient 2 is something we don't care about. <u>We only worry about the remainder</u>. Therefore 7+6 = 3 (mod 5)

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

2+1 = 3 (mod 5) for similar reasoning as above. 3/5 = 0 remainder 3.

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

20 = 9 (mod 11) since 20/11 = 1 remainder 9. Imagine you had 20 cookies and 11 friends. Each friend would get 1 whole cookie (quotient) and there could be 9 left over (remainder).

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

35/11 = 3 remainder 2

Or you could use repeated subtraction like so to find the remainder

35-11 = 24

24-11 = 13

13-11 = 2

The last result (2) is smaller than 11, so we stop here and this is the remainder.

Therefore, 35 = 2 (mod 11)

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

Here's another way to think of it. Consider you have $35 in your pocket. Let's say a store is selling trinkets for $11 each. We can pose these key questions:

  • What is the most number of trinkets you can buy?
  • If you buy that max amount, how much will you have left over?

The answer to the first question is 3 trinkets because 3*11 = 33 dollars is under the budget of $35. The amount left over is 35-33 = 2 dollars which is the remainder. It's not larger than 11, so we cannot buy any more trinkets at this point.

Y=300-5x in standard form
Akimi4 [234]
<span>y = 300 - 5x

Standard form:
ax + by = c

</span>y = 300 - 5x
<span>5x + y = 300

Then to find the y-intercept, insert a 0 into the 'x'.
5(0) + y = 300
y = 300
The y-intercept is 300.

To find the x-intercept, insert a 0 into the 'y'.
5x + (0) = 300
5x = 300
x = 60

The x-intercept is 60.</span>
