Show that if n is an integer and n^3 + 5 is odd then n is even

If n is odd then its cube is also odd because odd times odd is odd. When we add 5, an odd number, we get an even number.
If n is even, its cube is also even so adding an odd number makes the sum odd. So if the expression is odd, n must be even.

Write the number in two forms 15409
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Since 15409-1=15408 and 15408+1=15409, we can write that as one. With 15409-2, we can write the same thing with 15407+2

Solve for w, x, and y. Show your work.
sveta [45]

First of all, the left triangle is an equilateral triangle. Which means that all the interior angles are 60 degrees.

4w=60

w=15

Then all 3 sides are equal thus we can set up equation 3x-y=4y then simplify,

3x=5y

Going to the triangle on the right its isosceles we can set up equation 2x+50=180

2x=130

x=75

Substitute this back into equation above 3x=5y

5y=3*75

y=45

Therefore

x=75

y=45

w=15

Done!

David did not notice the multiplication sign between two three-digit numbers and wrote one six-digit number, which is equal to s
IRISSAK [1]

1) We can get that number hit and trial method.

It is said that "two three-digit numbers and wrote one six-digit number, which is equal to seven times their product".

Let us check number 143.

If we write 143 two times without any sign in between , we get 143143 ( a six digit number).

But if we multiply 143 × 143 , we get 20449.

7 times of 20449 equals 143143.

<h3>Therefore, the required three digit number is 143.</h3>

2) Let us assume required prime numbers are a, b and c.

Product of a, b and c= abc.

Sum of a, b and c = a+b+c.

"Their product is five times greater than their sum."

Therefore,

abc = 5(a+b+c)  ----------------------equation (1)

Now, let us take first prime numbers 2 and second 5.

Plugging a=2 and b=5.

2×5×c = 5(2+5+c).

10c = 5(7+c)

10c = 35 +5c.

Subtracting 5c from both sides, we get

10c-5c = 35 +5c-5c.

5c = 35.

Dividing both sides by 5, we get

c=7.

Therefore, first "cool" triple is 2,5,7.

Let us check by taking a=2 and b=7.

Plugging a=2 and b=7 in equation (1), we get

2×7×c = 9(2+7+c).

c=9. But it's not a prime number.

Let us take a=2 and b=11, we get

2×11×c = 11(2+11+c).

c=13   (A prime)

If we take a=2 and b=17, we get

2×17×c = 17(2+17+c).

c=19   (A prime).

<h3>On the same way, if we continue the process, we can get many "cool" triples.</h3>
