Answer: m=11/5
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe the answer to your question is 4
First youll need to add all the numbers together to get the cost of one tire
89.95 + 3.25 + 2.60 + 3.80 = $99.60
now that we know how much one tire costs, we can multiply the price of one tire by two to found out his final bill
99.60 x 2 = $199.20
Pete's final bill is $199.20
let me know if you have any other questions

Answer:
Constructive Proof
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a positive integer
x must be equal to sum of all positive integers exceeding it
i.e.
x = x + (x - 1) + ( x - 2) + ......... + 2 + 1
Equivalently,
x = ∑i (where i = 1 to x)
The property finite sum;
∑i (i = 1 to x) = x(x + 1)/2
So,
x = x(x + 1)/2 ------- Multiply both sides by 2
2 * x = 2 * x(x + 1)/2
2x = x(x + 1)
2x = x² + x ------- subtract 2x from both sides
2x - 2x = x² + x - 2x
0 = x² + x - 2x ----- Rearrange
x² + x - 2x = 0
x² - x = 0 ------ Factorise
x(x - 1) = 0
So,
x = 0 or x - 1 = 0
x = 0 or x = 1 + 0
x = 0 or x = 1
But x ≠ 0
So, x = 1
The statement is only true for x = 1
This makes sense because 1 is the only positive integer not exceeding 1
1 = 1
It is a Constructive Proof
A proof is constructive when we find an element for which the statement is true.
