Answer:

The smallest positive integer solution to the given system of congruences is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of congruences is

x=0(mod5)

x=8(mod11)

where, m and n are positive integers.

It means, if the number divided by 5, then remainder is 0 and if the same number is divided by 11, then the remainder is 8. It can be defined as

x=5m

x=11n+8

5m\cong 11n+8

Now, we can say that m>n because m and n are positive integers.

For n=1,

5m=11(1)+8=19

5m=19

19 is not divisible by 5 so m is not an integer for n=1.

For n=2,

5m=11(2)+8

5m=30

m=6

The value of m is 6 and the value of n is 2. So the smallest positive integer solution to the given system of congruences is

x=5(6)=30

Therefore the smallest positive integer solution to the given system of congruences is 30.

X + y = 19
x - y = -7
Subtract both
2y = 26, y = 13
Plug into first equation
x + 13 = 19
x = 6

Solution: x = 6, y = 13

What is the product?
Lerok [7]
You just have to multiply straight across. Multiply the numerators for the new numerator, and the denominators for the new denominator.
5*3=15
4*8=32
15/32 is the answer (b).

A cylindrical candle has a volume of approximately 400cm^3 and is 8 cm tall. What is the radius of the candle?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

<h2><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

We know that

V = πr²h

400 = 22/7 × r² × 8

400 × 7 = 22 × 7r²

2800 = 154r²

2800/154 = r²

18 ≈ r²

4.2 = r

Find a cartesian equation for the curve and identify it. r = 10 tan(θ) sec(θ)
Vilka [71]
For a cartesian equation
x=r\cos\theta \ and \ y=r\sin\theta \\  \\ \cos\theta=\frac{x}{r} \ and \ \sin\theta=\frac{y}{r} \\  \\ \tan\theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\frac{y}{r}\cdot\frac{r}{x}=\frac{y}{x} \\  \\ \sec\theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}=\frac{r}{x}

Given r = <span>10 tan(θ) sec(θ)
r=10\tan\theta\sec\theta=10\cdot\frac{y}{x}\cdot\frac{r}{x} \\  \\ \Rightarrow10y=x^2 \\  \\ \Rightarrow y= \frac{1}{10} x^2

Therefore,</span>the curve is a parabola opening upward with vertex (0, 0).
