When applying indirect proofs, we assume the negation of the conclusion is true, and show that this assumption would lead to nonsense, or contradiction.
In our case we assume a is not smaller than 7, that is we assume a≥7.
a≥7 then, multiplying both sides by 3:
3a≥21, then, adding both sides 7:
3a+7≥28,
which is a contradiction because 3a+7 is smaller than 28.
So our assumption is wrong, which means the opposite of it is correct.
Answer: assume a≥7
Hello there!
The number 8 is an even number, since it can be divided evenly by the number of 2.
Hope this helps and have a great day! :)
Answer:
4.
Step-by-step explanation:
I will have one real root = fifth root of 3.
As it has a total of 5 roots ( By the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra) then it must have 4 complex roots.
D : 0.300- 0.006 is correct
A is wrong bec 0.3 doesn’t have the extra 0’s in the end
B is wrong bec the decimal places aren’t aligned
C is wrong bec again, the decimal places aren’t aligned
