Step-by-step explanation:

$3x + 2 = 6x - 13$

$3x - 6x = - 13 - 2$

$- 3x = - 15$

$x = \dfrac{15}{3}$

$x = 5$

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x:

3x + 2 = 6x - 13

Subtract 3x from both sides:

2 = 3x - 13

Add 13 to both sides:

15 = 3x

Divide each side by 3:

5 = x

Prove the divisibility of the following numbers:

ratelena [41]

Make use of prime factorizations:

$16^5+2^{15}=(2^4)^5+2^{15}=2^{20}+2^{15}$

Both terms have a common factor of $2^{15}$ :

$16^5+2^{15}=2^{15}\left(2^5+1\right)=2^{15}\cdot33$

- - -

The second one is not true! We can write

$15^7+5^{13}=(3\cdot5)^7+5^{13}=3^7\cdot5^7+5^{13}$

Both terms have a common factor of $5^7$ :

$15^7+5^{13}=5^7\left(3^7+5^6\right)$

Since $30=5\cdot6$ , and $5\mid5^7$ , we'd still have to show that $5^6(3^7+5^6)$ is a multiple of 6. This is impossible, because $6=3\cdot2$ and there is no multiple of 2 that can be factored out.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

156

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Sandwiches sold by Adam, Matt and Clinton = 2x, 7x and 3x

Total sandwiches = 2x + 7x + 3x

=> 12x

But its given that Matt sold 91 sandwiches

So,

7x = 91

x = 91/7

x = 13

=> Total sandwiches = 12x = 12(13) = 156
