A prime number has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. For example, 13 is a prime number because the only factors of 13 are 1 and 13. The number 8 is not prime because it has four factors: 1, 2, 4 and 8. The number 1 is not a prime number because it only has one factor (itself).
<u>Answer:</u>
29 years
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- Given the function
, where x stands for the number of years since the material was put into the vault, we can plug 140 into x to find the amount leftover. - Another way of doing this is to change the function to
which are equivalent functions, and then plug 140 into x. This function is helpful if you also needed to find the rate. - I'll use the 1st function because the question doesn't ask for the rate
From here I'll just use a calculator & get 28.7, or 29 years.
Answer:
c = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The compound inequality is c < x < 5
If we want a value of c such that there are no solutions, we need to make that inequality false.
From the inequality we can see that 5 must be greater than c to be true.
Therefore, we need to choose a value smaller or equal than 5.
For example, c=6.
If c = 6, that means that x is greater than 6 and smaller than 5. That's impossible, there is no number that meets that.
Therefore, our compound inequality 6 < x < 5 has no solutions.
To do this find the LCD which in this case, is 16. once you multiply all fractions to where the denominator is 16 you should have: 10/16, 12/16,8/16 and 9/16. Your will be 8/16, 9/16, 10/16, 12/16
