Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric series so the sum is:

a1 * r^n - 1 / (r - 1)

= 1 * (2^101 -1) / (2-1)

= 2^101 - 1.

Find the remainder when 2^101 is divided by 7:

Note that 101 = 14*7 + 3 so

2^101 = 2^(7*14 + 3) =  2^3  * (2^14)^7 = 8 * (2^14)^7.

By Fermat's Little Theorem  (2^14) ^ 7 = 2^14 mod 7 = 4^7 mod 7.

So 2^101 mod 7 = (8 * 4^7) mod 7

                           = (8 * 4) mod 7

                            = 32 mod 7

                            = 4 = the remainder when 2^101 is divided by 7.

So the remainder when 2^101- 1 is divided by 7 is 4 - 1 = 3..

Avery has saved $295 to spend on Christmas gifts for 11 people. Which is the BEST estimate of the amount he can spend for each p
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The best estimate is 27 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide 295 dollars by 11, you will get a very long decimal, do the first 2 numbers of the 1s place and 10s place in the decimal. After that, you have to round the 26.81. Since 8 is bigger than 5, you can round it to 27.00, and get your answer, which is 27 dollars.

What is an equation of a line that passes through the point (10,5) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=5/4x-2?
Maurinko [17]

y = mx + b

slope(m) = -4/5

(10,5)...x = 10 and y = 5

now sub into the formula and find b, the y int

5 = -4/5(10) + b

5 = -40/5 + b

5 = -8 + b

5 + 8 = b

13 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -4/5x + 13 <===

Hope this helps!
