So in order to find the counterexample and to prove it, let us do it one by one with the given options above.
A. 22. 22 is divisible by 2 but NOT DIVISIBLE by 6.
B. 18. 18 is divisible by 2 and also by 6.
C. 36. 36 is divisible by 2 and by 6.
D. 12. 12 is divisible by 2 and by 6.
Take note that when we say counterexample, this is the statement that disproves another statement. Therefore, the answer would be option A. 22. Hope that this answer helps.

Two blueberry farms are similar in shape. The ratio of the side lengths of the farms is 4:5, and the smaller farm has a perimete

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

$337.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4:5=360:x 360/4=90 90+360=450 check 360/450=0.8 and 4/5=0.8

4:5=360:450

larger farm perimeter is 450 yards so dig a trench 0.75 per yard

so 450 * 0.75 = $337.5

Hope this helps! :)

adult tickets to the fall play cost $8 and student tickets cost $4. the drama class sold 20 more adult tickets than student tick

andriy [413]

let us repersent the number of student tickets, then 's + 20' is repersenting the number of adult tickets.

The equation for the total tickets can be experssed as the following:

4.00 * s + 8.00 * ( s + 20 ) = 880.00

solving for 's=60', there were 60 student tickets.

60 + 20 = 80

there were 80 adult tickets.

Hope helps!-Aparri

Please Hurry! What is the solution to log2_(9x)-log2_3=3?

brilliants [131]

Answer:

$log_{2}(9x) - log_{2}(3) = 3 \\ 3 = log_{2}(8) or log_{2}( {2}^{3} ) \\ log_{2}( \frac{9x}{3} ) = log_{2}(8) \\ \frac{9x}{3} = 8 \\ 9x = 8 \times 3 \\ 9x = 24 \\ x = \frac{24}{9} \\ x = \frac{8}{3} \\ x = 2 \times \frac{2}{3}$
