For any integer k > 1, the term "length of an integer" refers to the number of positive prime factors, not necessarily distin

ct, whose product is equal to k. For example, if k = 24, the length of k is equal to 4, since 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3. If x and y are positive integers such that x > 1, y > 1, and x + 3y < 1,000, what is the maximum possible sum of the length of x and the length of y?

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find integers x, y with the most amount of prime divisors, not necessarily distinct, such that x + 3y < 1,000.

Obviously, this is achieved when the divisor is the least prime 2. So, we must find integers n, m such that

\large 2^n + 3*2^m < 1,000  

since \large 2^10 = 1,024 , then <em>n must be 9</em>. For n=9 we find the greatest integer m such that  

\large 2^9 + 3*2^m  

and<em> we find m=7 </em>

 and  \large x=2^9 , \large y=2^7  are the numbers we are looking for and the sum of their length is 9+7 = 16.

So, 16 is the maximum possible sum of the length of x and the length of y.

Answer:

D,E are not functions

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation in which every  input has not more than one output.But the output of the inputs may be same.Here in D the input 1 has 4 different outputs as 1,2,3,4.So its not a function.Similarly in E 6 has 2 outputs as 2 and -1.For remaining sets the inputs has only one output.so they are functions.

Can someone plz help me no links plz I beg u I’m confused I would really appreciate it
Ghella [55]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum amount of weight the truck can carry is 1600lbs. You do not want to exceed 1600lbs, but you can reach 1600lbs. This makes the inequality symbol ≤. This symbol says that the weight load has to be less than 1600lbs, but It can equal 1600lbs. You know that the piano is 400lbs and each box is 50lbs. Since you want to figure out how many boxes you can put on the truck alongside the piano, you can use the inequality: 50x + 400 ≤ 1600.

50 represents pounds per/box

x represents the number of boxes you can hold

400 represents the weight of the piano

1600 represents the max weight.

Point A is at (3, 2.5) and point B is at (3, 1.4) on a coordinate grid. The distance between the two points is ____. Input numbe
andriy [413]
The points have the same x-coordinate, so they lie on a horizontal line. The distance between them is the difference between their y-coordinates.

2.5 - 1.4 = 1.1

The distance between the two points is 1.1
