Why the multiple of any number other than 1 are not prime numbers

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago

Because the fact that they can be the answer of a multiplication of a set of numbers other than one, means that they cannot be prime.

What is a prime number? A prime number is a number whose only factors are 1 and itself.

So for example, if you can use 2 multiplied 7 to get 14, then that means 2&7 are factors of 14. Since 14 has factors other than one and itself, then it isn't prime.

If T(x, y) = (x + 5, y + 6) and Pris the image of P, what is the rule for the translation in which P is the image of P'? T(x, y)
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The translation is;

T(x,y)=(x-5,y-6)

Explanation:

Given the translation rule;

T(x,y)=(x+5,y+6)

when P' is the image of P.

For the inverse, when P is the image of P', the Translation rule would become;

\begin{gathered} x=x^{\prime}+5 \\ x^{\prime}=x-5 \\ y=y^{\prime}+6 \\ y^{\prime}=y-6 \\ So,\text{ the translation rule becomes;} \\ T(x,y)=(x-5,y-6) \end{gathered}

The translation is;

T(x,y)=(x-5,y-6)

Singh works at a restaurant where he is paid by the hour plus time-and-a-half for his hours over 40. Last week he worked 3 hours
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The hourly wage is $8.55 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine the expression for the gross pay

Total gross pay=(Unit rate per hour×number of hours(≤40))+(Overtime rate×number of overtime hours)

where;

Total gross pay=$380.48

Unit rate per hour=x

Number of hours=40 hours

Overtime rate=x×(1 1/2)=1.5 x

Number of overtime hours=3 hours

Step 2: Replace to solve for hourly wage

380.48=(x×40)+(1.5 x)×3

40 x+4.5 x=380.48

44.5 x=380.48

x=380.48/44.5

x=8.55

The hourly wage is $8.55 per hour

If you would like to know how many pounds of pasta the restaurant will need, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 pounds of pasta ... 14 people
x pounds of pasta = ? ... 56 people

3 * 56 = 14 * x      /14
x = 3 * 56 / 14
x = 12 pounds of pasta

The correct result would be 12 pounds of pasta.

The volume of the candle initially is:
V=Ab*h
Area of the base of the cylinder: Ab=pi*r^2
pi=3.14
Radius of the base: r=4 cm
Height of the cylinder: h=6 cm

Ab=pi*r^2
Ab=3.14*(4 cm)^2
Ab=3.14*(16 cm^2)
Ab=50.24 cm^2

V=Ab*h
V=(50.24 cm^2)*(6 cm)
V=301.44 cm^3

The candle melts at a constant rate of:
r=(60 cm^3)/(2 hours)=(120 cm^3)/(4 hours)=(180 cm^3)/(6 hours)
r=30 cm^3/hour

The amount of candle melted off after 7 hours is:
A=(30 cm^3/hour)*(7 hours)
A=210 cm^3

The percent of candle that is melted off after 7 hours is:
P=(A/V)*100%
P=[(210 cm^3)/(301.44 cm^3)]*100%
P=(0.696656051)*100%
P=69.66560510%
Rounded to the nearest percent
P=70%

Answer: 70%
