Which statement is true for the set of natural numbers?

1 answer:

5 0

It's closed under addition. You can take any two natural numbers you want, add them up and you'll get some other natural number (eg: 3 and 5 ---> 3+5 = 8)

it's not closed under subtraction. Sure 5-3 = 2 is a natural number but 3-5 = -2 is not a natural number

so that leads us to the answer being choice B

S/5+125=2225<br> What is s

Rasek [7]

Answer:

s = 10500

Step-by-step explanation:

s/5 + 125 = 2225

Our mission is to isolate s. We can first begin to do this by subtracting 125 from both sides.

s/5 + 125 - 125 = 2225 - 125

s/5 = 2100

Since s is being divided by 5, we can multiply by 5 on both sides to get s alone.

s/5 x 5 = 2100 x 5
