Answer:

3x + 2 = 50

Explanation:

let's represent the number of friends jack has by x.

since he gave three chocolates to each of his friends, that would be 3x chocolates in total. then, we have to factor in the remaining 2 chocolates. this gives us <u>3x + 2 = 50</u>.

Para festeja su cumpleaños,Nancy compró 15 paquetes de pizzetas. Si cocinó 288 pizzetas, cuántos paquetes completos le quedaron?

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Nancy consumió 12 paquetes de pizzetas y le quedaron 3 paquetes completos.

Step-by-step explanation:

En primer lugar, debemos descomponer el número total de pizzas como una multiplicación de números primos. Al realizar la descomposición factorial tenemos que:

$288 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$

Entonces, los familia de divisores de 288 es el siguiente conjunto:

$D_{288} = \{2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 32, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144 \}$

Si tanto la cantidad de paquetes de pizzetas y la cantidad cocinada de pizzetas son números enteros y positivos, siendo la última mucho mayor. Entonces, la cantidad de pizzetas debe ser un número entero y la cantidad de paquetes gastados menor a la cantidad de paquetes comprados y el número entero más cercano a esa cantidad. Entonces, concluimos que Nancy se gastó 12 paquetes de pizzetas, quedándole 3 paquetes completos.

Olin [163]

Multiply (or distribute) the exponent outside the parenthesis with every exponent inside the parenthesis, remember that if there is no exponent shown, then the exponent is 1. Step 3: Apply the Negative Exponent Rule. Negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents.
