According to the associative property of equality: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) we can see that the parenthesis do not mean anything when we are only doing addition.

So answers 1. and 3. are correct.

how many numbers between 650 and 780 leave remainders of 4 and 6 when divided by 7 and 11 respectively? pls help lol im desperat

Tanya [424]

Answer:

18 numbers between 650 and 780 leave remainders of 4 when divided by 7.

12 numbers between 650 and 780 leave remainders of 6 when divided by 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Number 655 is the smallest number that leaves the remainder of 4 when divided by 7. Number 774 is the greatest number that leaves the remainder of 4 when divided by 7. So,

$a_1=655\\ \\a_n=774\\ \\d=7\\ \\a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\Rightarrow 774=655+7(n-1)\\ \\7(n-1)=774-655\\ \\7(n-1)=119\\ \\n-1=17\\ \\n=17+1=18$

2. Number 655 is the smallest number that leaves the remainder of 6 when divided by 11. Number 776 is the greatest number that leaves the remainder of 6 when divided by 11. So,

$a_1=655\\ \\a_n=776\\ \\d=11\\ \\a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\Rightarrow 776=655+11(n-1)\\ \\11(n-1)=776-655\\ \\11(n-1)=121\\ \\n-1=11\\ \\n=11+1=12$
