Answer:

b. 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

knowing that a prime number is an integer with exactly two divisors and a composite number is an integer with more than two divisors, we have that if q is a composite number greater than 2 these can be 4, 6, 8, .. But how the smallest of them should be is 4, and  p is a prime number can be 2,3,5,7,....

but  is the smallest prime number less than 10 then p=2, also p/q=2/4 = 0.5

What is the value of C in the matrix equation below?
lara [203]

Given:

The matrix equation is:

\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-C=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}

To find:

The value of matrix C.

Solution:

Let A=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix},B=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}. Then the given equation can be rewritten as

A-C=B

-C=B-A

C=-(B-A)

C=A-B

On substituting the values of the matrices, we get

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18-(-22)&3-1&5-12\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18+22&2&-7\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-4&2&-7\end{bmatrix}

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Brandon has 32 stamps. He wants to display the stamps in rows, with the same number of stamps in each row. How many different wa
aniked [119]
Find all the factors of 32, as they come in pairs.
The pairs will give you how many rows you can have, as well as the number of stamps in each row.
1x32 would be 1 row, 32 stamps each
2x16 would be 2 rows, 16 stamps each.
4x8 would be 4 rows, 8 stamps each.
Once you reach the point that it flips around, you can count up all those ways as well.
8x4 is 8 rows with 4 stamps each
16x2 is 16 rows with 2 stamps each
32x1 is 32 rows with 1 stamp each
The total number of factor pairs is 6, meaning he can display the stamps in 6 different ways that follow his want of having the same number of stamps in each row.
