complete question:
The value of Q is given by the relation Q = 17m. If m is an integer greater than 15 and less than 23, then which of the following is the value of Q?
A. 255
B. 290
C. 306
D. 391
Answer:
C. 306
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is Q = 17m. m is an integer and it is greater than 15 and less than 23 . This means m can only be 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22.
Insert any of the value of Q from the options in the equation Q = 17m and solve the equation. The answer of m must be between 16 to 22.
let us try
option A
Q = 17m
255/17 = m
m = 15 (not A since it not greater than 15)
option B
Q = 17m
290/17 = m
m = 17.0588235294
(not an integer)
option C
Q = 17m
306/17 = m
m = 18
(correct . it is an integer and greater than 15 and less than 22)
option D
Q = 17m
391/17 = m
m = 23
(not less than 23)
