Answer:

The correct answer is NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are total 32 actors. We need to divide the actors into equal groups.

Requirement 1: There must be at least 2 groups.

Requirement 2: There must be at least 6 actors in each group.

Requirement 3: There must be less than 8 actors in each group.

If we make groups of 6 actors each (group should have at least 6 actors), we will have 5 equal groups but would be left with 2 actors. This would violate requirements 2 as well as 3.

If we make groups of 7 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups but would be left with 4 actors. This would again violate requirements 2 as well as 3.

Lastly if we make groups of 8 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups. But this would then violate requirement 3 as each group has less than 8 actors.

Thus we cannot divide 32 actors in equal groups according to the given requirements.

36/9+2/9 fraction adding!!!
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: 38/9

Step-by-step explanation: Because the fractions presented already have common denominators, the only thing you need to do in order to solve the problem is add the numerators. 36+2= 38, and you keep your denominator the same when adding fractions (when they are the same).

Winston drove 70 mph. If he drives for 3.5 hours how many miles will Winston drive?
Fofino [41]
This problem can be solved using two equations:
The first represents the total trip, which is the miles driven in the morning added to those in the afternoon. Let's call the hours driven in the morning X and the hours driven in the afternoon Y. We get: X + Y = 248.
The second equation relates the miles driven in the morning compared to the afternoon. Since 70 fewer miles were driven in the morning than the afternoon, then X = Y - 70.
Now substitute the equation for morning hours (equation 2) into the total miles equation (equation 1). We get:
(Y - 70) + Y = 248
2Y - 70 = 248
2Y = 318
Y = 159
We know that Winston drove 159 miles in the afternoon.

To find the morning hours, just substitute 159 into the equation for morning hours (equation 2)
X = 159 - 70
X = 89
We now know that Winston drove 89 miles in the morning.

We can check our work by plugging both distances into the total distance equation: 89 + 159 = 248

Twin Primes Conjecture A natural number is called a prime number if it has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. 1 is not a prime n
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime numbers are bold:

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11 12  13  14  15  16  17

18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25  26  27  28  29  30  31

a) We can see that as we go higher, twin primes seem less frequent but even considering that, there is an infinite number of twin primes. If you go high enough you will still eventually find a prime that is separated from the next prime number by just one composite number.

b) I think it's interesting the amount of time that has been devoted to prove this conjecture and the amount of mathematicians who have been involved in this. One of the most interesting facts was that in 2004 a purported proof (by R. F. Arenstorf) of the conjecture was published but a serious error was found on it so the conjecture remains open.
