My name is Ann [436]3 years ago

Answer:

  B:  2⁷-1 = 127

Step-by-step explanation:

A Mersenne prime is a prime of the form 2^n -1, where n is also a prime.

Among the answer choices, neither 90=2·3²·5 nor 15=3·5 is prime. Both 2⁷-1 = 127 and 2¹¹-1 = 2047 are of the right form, but 2047 = 23·89 is a composite number.

  2⁷-1 = 127 is a Mersenne prime

Which of the following statements is not true?
Verizon [17]

Whole numbers are the set of integers ranging from 0 - infinity. Natural numbers are the set of integers ranging from 1 - infinity. 0 is not a natural number but it is a whole number, so the second statement is false.

A vase in the shape of an oblique cylinder has the dimensions shown. What is the volume of the vase?
fenix001 [56]

The image is missing so i have attached it.

Answer:

Volume = 1.5 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagoras theorem, we can get the height (h) of the cylinder

14² + h² = 17²

h² = 289 - 196

h = √93

Now, volume of a cylinder is;

V = πr²h

In the image, r = diameter/2 = 14/2 = 7cm

Thus,

V = π × 7² × √93

V = 1485 cm³

Now, 1 litre = 1000 cm³

Thus, volume = 1485/1000 = 1.485 litres ≈ 1.5 litres
