B.
Let's simply look at each conjecture and determine if it's true or false.
A. 2n– 1 is odd if n is positive: Since n is an integer, 2n will
always be even. And an even number minus 1 is always odd. Doesn't matter
if n is positive or not. So this conjecture is true.
B. 2n– 1 is always even: Once again, 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. This conjecture is false.
C. 2n– 1 is odd if n is even: 2n is always even, so 2n-1 will always
be odd, regardless of what n is. So this conjecture is true.
D. 2n– 1 is always odd: 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. Once again, this conjecture is true.
Of the 4 conjectures above, only conjecture B is false. So the answer is B.
Triangles ABC and ADE are similar triangles. That means the sides are all scaled by the same factor.
To go from side BC to side DE, you multiply by 1.25. That means 1.25 is your scale factor. Now apply that factor to the bottom side to get your answer.
Side AB is 6. That means side AD is 6 x 1.25 = 7.5. That means x = 7.5 - 6 = 1.5
The answer is A, because $9,841.28 minus $7,429.84 is <span>$2,411.44</span>
X will be 8.49
the other side is 6 too
