I need to find the answer to this question and please explain how.
deff fn [24]

Among the given statements, the true statements are:

  • If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.
  • The number 119 is a composite number.

In the question, we are asked for the true statements among the given options:

1. All even numbers are composite numbers.

Answer - False

Reason - 2 is an even number, which is not a composite number.

2. If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.

Answer - True

Reason - If any number, n, is divisible by any two numbers, x and y, then it is also divisible by their LCM, and the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

3. All prime numbers are odd numbers.

Answer - False

Reason - 2 is a prime number, which is not odd.

4. The number 119 is a composite number.

Answer - True

Reason - The number 119 is a composite number, as it is not a prime number, as it is divisible by 7 and 17 too, other than 1 and itself.

5. 12 is a factor of 6.

Answer - False.

Reason - When 6 is divided by 12, the integral quotient that we get is 0, and the remainder is 6, but for any number x, to be a factor of y, on dividing y by x, the remainder should be 0.

6. If a number is divisible by 6 and 4, then it is also divisible by 4.

Answer - False

Reason - If any number, n, is divisible by any two numbers, x and y, then it is also divisible by their LCM, and the LCM of 6 and 4 is 12.

Thus, a number divisible by 6 and 4 is divisible by 12 but not necessarily by 24. Example 12 is divisible by both 6 and 4 but not divisible by 24.

Thus, among the given statements, the true statements are:

  • If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.
  • The number 119 is a composite number.

Lisa is 10 cm taller than her friend ian. Ian is 14 cm taller than jim. Every month, their heights increase by 2 cm. In 7 months
koban [17]

Answer:  Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm

Explanation :

Let the height of Jim be x

Let the  height of Ian be x+4

Let the height of Lisa be x+4+10=x+14

Since their heights increase by 2cm every months

so after 7 months ,

Jim's  height = x+14

Ian's  height= x+4+14=x+18

Lisa's  height= x+14+14=x+28

According to question,

Sum of Ian's and Jim's height = 170cm

x+18+x+14 = 170\\2x+32 =170\\2x =170-32\\2x = 138

⇒x = \frac{138}{2}

⇒ x= 69cm

∴ Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm
