The sum of a natural number and its half is equal to 32. What is the number?​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Svet_ta [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

There is no natural number like that.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Say the number is odd: its half wont be a natural number. it will be a fraction number. And sum cant be equal to 32.
  2. Now, if the number were even. its half will be an odd number. and sum of an odd and an even number cant be an even, so the sum cant be 32.

MATHEMATICALLY,

Let the number is x.

So, x+x/2=32

or, 3x=64

or, x= 64/3=21.333...

But, 21.33.. is not a natural number.

Sketch and write the equation for each line : y = mx<br> +b
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

equation  y =7/4x+1

slope = 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points so we can find the slope

m =(y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

   = (4--3)/(2--2)

  = (4+3) / (2+2)

   = 7/4

We know the slope and the y intercept

We can write the equation using y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y= 7/4x +1

We put at dot at (0,1) and then go up 7 and to the right 4 .  We put another dot

Connect the dots and we have our line.

We could also put dots at (-2,-3) and (2,4) and connect the dots.

If you had 3.5 gallons of gas, how far could you travel?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

It would depend on how many miles per gallon your car gets

Step-by-step explanation:

As a general rule, most cars have about 2.5 gallons left in the tank when the gas light comes on. So depending on how many miles you get per gallon, you can probably go anywhere between 30-60 miles.

PLEASE HELP AND SHOW ALL STEPS
Alja [10]

Combining the like terms, the simplified polynomials are given as follows:

a) 4x² - 14x + 17

b) -5x² - 20x + 8

<h3>How are polynomials simplified?</h3>

Polynomials are simplified combining the like terms, that is, adding these numbers with the same variable.

Item a:

4(x - 2)(x + 1) - 5(2x - 5)

Applying the distributive property:

4(x² - x - 2) - 10x + 25

4x² - 4x - 8 - 10x + 25

Combining the like terms:

4x² - 4x - 10x - 8 + 25

4x² - 14x + 17

Item b:

-5(x + 2)² + 28

-5(x² + 4x + 4) + 28

-5x² - 20x - 20 + 28

-5x² - 20x + 8

Put these numbers in order from least to greatest 12%, -1/2, 0, -0.22, 0.56
uysha [10]

Answer: -1/2, -0.22, 0, 12%, 0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2 is equal to -0.50, making it the number with the least value.

-0.22 is closer to 0 than -0.50, meaning it is greater then -0.50 and less than 0.

0 is between the negative and positive numbers, giving it the spot that it has.

12% is equivalent to 0.12, meaning it is more than 0, and less than 0.56, which is the greatest number.

0.56 has more value than any other number in the problem, meaning it goes last in the order.
