roblem: Report Error A partition of a positive integer $n$ is any way of writing $n$ as a sum of one or more positive integers,

in which we don't care about the order of the numbers in the sum. For example, the number 4 can be written as a sum of one or more positive integers (where we don't care about the order of the numbers in the sum) in exactly five ways: \[4,\; 3 + 1,\; 2 + 2,\; 2 + 1 + 1,\; 1 + 1 + 1 + 1.\] So 4 has five partitions. What is the number of partitions of the number 7?

Answer:

There are 15 partitions of 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a partition of a positive integer $n$ is any way of writing $n$ as a sum of one or more positive integers, in which we don't care about the numbers in the sum .

We have to find the partition of 7

We are given an example

Partition of 4

4=4

4=3+1

4=2+2

4=1+2+1

4=1+1+1+1

There are five partition of 4

In similar way  we are finding  partition of 7

7=7

7=6+1

7=5+2

7=5+1+1

7=3+3+1

7=3+4

7=4+2+1

7=3+2+2

7=4+1+1+1

7=3+1+1+1+1

7=2+2+2+1

7=3+2+1+1

7=2+2+1+1+1

7=2+1+1+1+1+1

7=1+1+1+1+1+1+1

Hence, there are 15 partitions of 7.

Graph the following pair of quadratic functions and describe any similarities/differences observed in the graphs.
Lostsunrise [7]

The similarities/differences observed in the graph is (c) both f and g open upward; low point of f is 3 units below the x-axis; the low point of g is 3 units above the x-axis

<h3>How to describe the similarities/differences?</h3>

The equations are given as:

f(x) = 5x² - 3

g(x) = 5x² + 3

Next, we plot the above equations on the same plane (see attachment)

From the attached graph, we can see that:

  • Both functions open upward
  • The lowest point of f(x) is at y = 3; i.e 3 units above the x-axis
  • The lowest point of g(x) is at y = -3; i.e 3 units below the x-axis

Hence, the similarities/differences observed in the graph is (c)

At your school, the building is 20 feet tall, a tree's height is 252 inches, and the flagpole is 6 yards high. Which of the thre
timurjin [86]
First, all the heights have to be converted to similar units, say feet.

Therefore,
Building= 20 feet
Tree = 252*0.083333 = 21 feet
Flagpole = 6*3 = 18 feet

The tallest of the three is the tree and thus should cast the longest shadow. However, it should be noted that at exactly noon when the sun is overhead, all the three will have equal length of shadow (that is, 0 feet long).

Paige lives 3 miles east of her school. Diego lives 8 miles wes of the school. Which expression represents the distance, in mile
True [87]

Answer: |3-(-8)|


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Paige lives 3 miles east of her school. Diego lives 8 miles west of the school.

From the picture , the number line represents the position of the houses of the two friends such that position of Paige is 3 but position of Diego is (-8) [since east and west are opposite directions]

We know that, Distance between any two points from A to B= B-A

Since distance is a positive quantity, thus

The distance between them = |3-(-8)| miles=11 miles
