Whole numbers are positive numbers without decimals.  First, list all the whole number factors of 36:

1 and 36

2 and 18

3 and 12

4 and 9

6 and 6

Next, see which one of those pairs has the highest sum:

1+36=37

2+18=20

3+12=15

4+9=13

6+6=12

The greatest possible sum the numbers can have is 37.

Hope this helps!!

What value of n makes the equation 4(0.5n − 3) = n − 0.25(12 − 8n) true?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

n = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

4(0.5n − 3) = n − <u>0.25(12 − 8n)</u>

2n - 12 = n - <u>3 + 2n</u>

2n - 12 = 3n - 3

2n - 3n =  - 3 +12

-1n  = 9

n = -9

In the measurement of 67.93 cm, which digit is estimated? click on the estimated digit
scoundrel [369]
When it comes to measurement, the most accurate estimate would be the whole number. A ruler has calibrated marks. It would be easy to locate 25. But when it is located between 25 to 26, you would have to estimate the decimal points. Generally, calibration marks are up to the tenths digit. For further digits, that would only an estimation. So, the estimated digit in this problem is 3 in the hundredths place.

The sum of two numbers is 12 and their difference is 20. What is the smaller number?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

16 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be x and y with x > y

x+y=12

x-y=20

Adding the 2 equations, term by term on both sides, will eliminate y leaving an equation in x that we can solve

(x+x)+(-y+y)=(12+20)

2x=32

x=16

16+y=12

y=-4

16+-4=12

12=12

16--4=20

20=20

Lines p and q are perpendicular. Line p is described by the equation 2x-5y=8. Line q passes through the point (-6,2) Which equat
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-5y=8. y = 2/5x-8/5

Line q: (-6,2). Slope -5/2

y-2 = -5/2(x- - 6). y-2 = -5/2(x+6)

y-2 = - 5/2x - 6

y = -5/2x -6 +2

y = - 5/2x - 4
