The sum of two consecutive, odd whole numbers is 205. What are the two numbers?

There is no solution. When you add two odd numbers the answer is always even.
Ex. 1 +3 = 4
101 + 103 = 204
103 + 105 = 208
Even the hint is wrong. It would be x and x+2. You would use x and x+1 if they were consecutive

Suppose that A = {2, 4, 6}, B = {2, 6}, C = {4, 6}, and D = {4, 6, 8}. Identify the pairs of sets in which one is a subset of th

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A = {2, 4, 6}, B = {2, 6}, C = {4, 6}, and D = {4, 6, 8}.

We know that P is a subset of Q if all elements of P are also in Q

Using this let us compare pairwise

A and B

The elements of B are also in A

So B is a subset of A

Next A and C,

All elements of C are in A. So C is a subset of A

B and C. We find neither is a subset of other

B and D. Here also 2 is not in D so not a subset

C and D

C is a subset of D

SO answer is

B and C are subsets of A and C is also a subset of D

A container with a larger surface area always has a greater volume. Explain whether or not this statement is true using several

Grace [21]

No, this is not true every time. It depends on the conditions given.

For example-

Suppose we have a Box A with dimensions 10 x 10 x 1 and Box B with dimensions 5 x 5 x 5.

Box B has a surface area = 2(25+25+25) = 150 and a volume of 5*5*5= 125 cubic units

Box A has a larger surface area = 2(100+10+10) = 240 and a smaller volume = 10*10*1 = 100 cubic units

Similarly take an example of sphere.

Lets suppose the radius of the sphere is 2 cm

So, SA is 4πr² = 4*3.14*2*2 = 50.24 cm²

Volume of the sphere is = 4πr³ /3 = 33.50 cm³

Here also the SA is greater.

-1/2(-3y+10) i need help combining like terms to create a equivelent expression

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

1.5y - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the distributive approach and distributed -1/2 to the -3y and 10.

(If you try this and it's incorrect, you may just need to distribute -1/2 to the 10, creating -3y - 5.)
