Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:   N = 143

Discussion:

This one took some trial and error! At first I listed all 2 digit primes, looked at the list, but didn't know how to proceed. So, I took the smallest 2 digit primes numbers:  11 and 13 and wondered if their product, 13*11 = 143, could be represented as the sum of  3 consecutive primes.   I went back to my list of primes,  added groups of three consecutive numbers that seemed to be in the right range to give the desired sum, and stumbled on  43, 47, and 53!

43 + 47 + 53 =  143 !


Therefore N = 143. It's the sum of 43, 47, and 53 as well as the product of 11 and 13.


Thank you,

MrB

What additional information do you need to prove △ABC ≅ △DEF by the SSS Postulate?
Fudgin [204]
The answer to this question is answer choice C.

For the SSS postulate, we need 3 pairs of congruent sides. However, in the image, there are only 2 pairs. 

The missing pair in the image is AC and DF. If those are congruent, the triangle can be proven congruent by the SSS postulate.

Hope this helps! :)

Use the given equation to find the number<br><br> 1/2x-19.7=-4.1
Leokris [45]

Answer:

the number is 31.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1/2x-19.7=-4.1

Adding 19.7 on both sides:

1/2x-19.7 + 19.7=-4.1 + 19.7

1/2x = 15.6

Multiplying both sides by 2:

x = 15.6 * 2

x = 31.2

So the number is 31.2

i hope it will help you!
