''All prime numbers are odd."

That is incorrect because if we consider the smallest odd number, 2, is an even number. We can say that except 2, all prime numbers are odd.

14. section is wrong. For example, both numbers can be negative, so when we multiple these two, it will equals a positive value.

Answer:

28, 29, and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

There's probably better ways but you can estimate by knowing 30*3=90 so it should be somewhere pretty close to 30. Guess and check with basic calculations to get 28, 29, and 30.

Find y when x = 9 if y varies directly as the square of x, and y = 245 when x = 7.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

y is directly proportional to x^2.

This means that y = kx^2, where k is a real constant.

When x = 7, y = 245:

245 = k(7)^2 = 49k. By division, k = 5.

Now we know that y = 5x^2, when x = 9, y = 5(9)^2 = 5 * 81 = 405.
