Answer:

The sum 10 first odd numbers are:

1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19

You can see that the unit part of the numbers repeat, but in the latter 5 numbers we have:

1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + (10 + 1) + (10 + 3) + (10 + 5) + (10 + 7) + (10 + 9)

Now, we can rearrange this as:

2*(1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9) + 5*10

2*(23) + 5*10

now, every number multiplied by a 2, is an even number, and 5*10 = 50 is also an even number.

Here we can see that the sum of the first 10 odd numbers is an even number, and because is an even number different than 2, it is not a prime number.

You can solve the multiplications and get:

2*23 + 5*10 = 46 + 50 = 96

Solve the system of equations. \begin{aligned} & -10x+3y = 5 \\\\ & x=y-4 \end{aligned} ​ −10x+3y=5 x=y−4 ​
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

x = 1

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use either substitution or elimination for this problem. I will use substitution.

Step 1: Replace x in the 1st equation

-10(y-4) + 3y = 5

-10y + 40 + 3y = 5

-7y = -35

y = 5

Step 2: Plug <em>y </em>into an original equation to find <em>x</em>

x = 5 - 4

x = 1

And you have your final answers!
