Answer:

Part a) (a,b,c)=(10,19,9)

Part b) (a,b,c)=(9,3,1)

Please let be know if I have interpreted your question correctly. Thank you.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

This is the way I interpret part a:

Find integers a,b,c such that a|(b-c) but a does not divide b and a does not divide c.

There are many triples satisfying part a.

One such triple is (a,b,c)=(3,10,7).

3 divides 10-7

But 3 does not divide 10 and 3 does not divide 7.

Another example is (a,b,c)=(2,7,5).

2 divides 7-5

But 2 doesn't divide 7 and 2 doesn't divide 5.

I will give another example.

(a,b,c)=(10,19,9)

10 divides 19-9

But 10 doesn't divide 19 and 10 doesn't divide 9

Part b)

This is the say I interpret part b:

a | (2b + 3c) but a does not divide b and a does not divide c

So lets let b=2 and c=5, then 2b+3c=19.

We just need to choose an a such that it divides 19 but not 2 and 5. That should be easy. 19 itself will do that.

So one (a,b,c) could be (19,2,5).

Let's try for another example.

Let b=3 and c=1.

Then 2b+3c=9.

So we just need to find an a that divides 9 but not 3 and not 1.

9 works.

So another example is (9, 3,1).

Noah received a $500 signing bonus when he accepted a job as a paralegal if he makes $28 an hour which equation models Noah tota
Lyrx [107]
The total amount the Noah receives will be equal to his hourly payment multiplied by the number of working of hours added to the 500$ bonus which he received.

Now, Noah get 28$ per hour and he works for x hours. This means that the payment he gets for working = 28x
Then, we will add the $500 which he received as a bonus.
Doing this, we can get the expression that models his total payment as follows:
y = 28x + 500
