Why are the divisibility rules for 2, 3, and 5 very useful for determining prime and composite numbers

Mathematics

zavuch27 [327]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

alright, ima explain each option.

1. "smallest odd numbers" 2 is an even number. that's out of the playing field.

2. "add up to 10" sure, they do add up to 10, but finding prime and composite numbers are all about division and multiplication.

3. this is true. 2, 3, and 5 are all prime numbers, and they have the nice divisibility rules. [ for 2, it has to be even, for 5, it has to end in 0 or 5, and 3 has to have the sum of its digits being divisible by 3. ]

4. they do multiply to 30, but this does not help break the composite numbers down.

5. we cannot make every number with just these. we can not multiply any other whole number to get 7 for per example, because it's a prime number.

myrzilka [38]

Answer: 25 + 15x ≤ 150

Step-by-step explanation: For this problem we will write an inequality to represent this situation.

Let x equal each additional day.

25 + 15x ≤ 150

The inequality above states that the dog owner will spend $25 for the first day and then for each additional day the dog owner will spend $15, but is budget is no more than $150 that the dog owner can spend.
