El número 18 tiene la siguiente propiedad: al sumar sus dígitos da como resultado1+8=9, y 18 se puede dividir por 9 (el valor de

la suma). No todos los números tienen esa curiosa propiedad. Por ejemplo, para el número 28 se tiene 2 + 8 = 10, pero 28 no se puede dividir de manera exacta por 10.El caracol Jacinto dice que el número de dos dígitos más grande que tiene la propiedad de dividirse por la suma de sus dígitos es el 60. Tú sabes que el caracol Jacinto está equivocado. El problema consiste en explicarle al caracol jacinto porqué está equivocado (para lo cual deberás escribir tu explicación). Además, debes encontrar el número de dos dígitos más grande que pueda dividirse por la suma de sus dígitos y dar un argumento que convenza al caracol (que es conocido por ser muy porfiado) de que el número que tú descubriste efectivamente es el más grande.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we can easily find that, for example, 63, has that particular property, therefore Jacinto is wrong.

Now we proceed to show that every (two digit) number is divisible by 3 if and only if it's sum of digits is.

Let n be a natural two digits number, and let a and b be the digits of said number, with

1 \leqslant a \leqslant 9 \\ 0 \leqslant b \leqslant 9

We can write n as

10a + b

Let's call r1 the remainder of 10a/3, with, of course, 0 \leqslant r1 \leqslant 2

(for example, if a=1 then r1=1, because 10=3*3+1)

Now, each power of 10 leaves a remainder of 1 when divided by 3, thus r1 is equal to the remainder of a/3.

As an example, if a=3, then r1=0, because 30=3*10.

And let's call r2 the remainder of b/3.

In order for n to be divisible by 3, r1+r2 must be equal to a multiple of 3 (otherwise the division would leave a remainder).

Now, a can be written as

(a \: multiple \:  of \:  3)+r1

And similarly, b can be written as

(a \:  multiple \:  of  \: 3)+r2

Therefore, a+b is equal to (a multiple of 3)+r1+r2.

But since we already showed that r1+r2 needs to be equal to a multiple of 3, we have that 3 divides n if and only if the sum of its digits is a multiple of 3.

With a similar reasoning we can find that the same holds for 9.

The largest two digits multiple of 9 is 99, but it doesn't work, because 9+9=18, and 99 is odd.

Next up we have 90, which is of course good, since 90/9=10.

It is the largest two digits integer to have this property, since it's easily checked that others do not work

Given sin theta = 2/5 and 0 theta 90 find sin 2 theta
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Given:  sin theta = 2/5.  This tells us that the lengths of the opp side and the hyp are 2 and 5 respectively.  The adj side is found using the Pyth. Thm.:  5^2-2^2= 25-4 = 21, so that the adj side is sqrt(21).

The double angle formula for the sine is sin 2theta = 2 sin theta *cos theta.

In this particular problem, the sine of 2theta is 2*(2/5)*[sqrt(21) / 5], or:

                                                                              (4/25)*sqrt(21).

What is the power of x? <br> A) 2 <br> B) 3 <br> C) 6 <br> D) 7
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

They are basically wanting the value of x.

These are 2 secant lines drawn. Secant Line is a line that intersects the circle at 2 points.

To solve this, we have to use secant-secant theorem.

Secant-Secant Power Theorem tells us that if 2 secant lines are drawn from external point (here, E) to a circle, then, product of measure of one secant's external part and total secant is equal to other secants external part and whole secant.

In algebra, that is:

(x+1)(x+1+11)=(x+4)(x+4+1)

Let's multiply and find the value of x:

(x+1)(x+1+11)=(x+4)(x+4+1)\\(x+1)(x+12)=(x+4)(x+5)\\x^2 + 13x + 12=x^2+9x+20\\13x+12=9x+20\\13x - 9x = 20 - 12\\4x = 8\\x = 2

Hence, the correct answer choice is A

Which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions? A. 5⁄6 and 10⁄12 B. 3⁄2 and 2⁄3 C. 3 1⁄2 and 4 4⁄4 D. 6⁄7 and 1
ElenaW [278]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answers are:

A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions, we must remember that like fractions are the fractions that share the same denominator.

We are given two fractions that are like fractions. Those fractions are:

Option A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

We have that:

\frac{10}{12}=\frac{5}{6}

So, we have that the pairs of numbers

\frac{5}{6}

and

\frac{5}{6}

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 6, so, the pairs of numbers contains like fractions.

Option D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

We have that:

1\frac{5}{7}=1+\frac{5}{7}=\frac{7+5}{7}=\frac{12}{7}

So, we have that the pair of numbers

\frac{6}{7}

and

\frac{12}{7}

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 7, so, the pairs of numbers constains like fractions.

Also, we have that the other given options are not like fractions since both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator.

The other options are:

\frac{3}{2},\frac{2}{3}

and

3\frac{1}{2},4\frac{4}{4}

We can see that both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator so, they do not contain like fractions.

Hence, the answers are:

A.

\frac{5}{6} and \frac{10}{12}

D.

\frac{6}{7} and 1\frac{5}{7}

Have a nice day!
