<h3>Answer:  2</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

If a number only has one factor pair, then that number must be prime. This is because prime numbers only have factors of 1 and the number itself.

For instance, the value 7 is prime because the only factors of this are 1 and 7.

For something like the number 32, it is composite and not prime because it has the factors {1,2,4,8,16,32} and it leads to these three factor pairs: 1*32, 2*16, 4*8. This is one example showing why the answer isn't composite.

-----------

Let's say that p is the unknown prime we want to find. The factors of this are 1 and p. We're told that "one of the factors is twice the other factor", so that must mean p = 2*1 = 2. We can see that 2 is twice that of 1.

How many real number solutions does the equation y=2x^2−8x+8 have?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

1 real solution

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x^2−8x+8

We can use the discriminant to determine the number of real solutions

b^2 -4ac

a =2  b = -8  c=8

(-8)^2 - 4(2)(8)

64 - 64

0

Since the discriminant is 0 there is 1 real solution

>0 there are 2 real solutions

< 0 two complex solutions

Marta_Voda [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Circumference is:

c = 2\pi \: r

Radius r is:

r =  \frac{d}{2}

So,

c = \pi \: d \\ d =  \frac{c}{\pi}  \\ d =  \frac{604}{\pi} \:  cm

Stella [2.4K]

The grocery mart offers the best deal on potato’s and price per pound is $0.03 less than Baldwin Hills market.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

At grocery mart, a  5 pounds bag of potatoes cost $2.85

So, <u>the unit price of potatoes per pound at grocery mart</u> =\frac{\$ 2.85}{5}=\$ 0.57

Now at Baldwin Hills market, 7 pounds bag of potatoes cost $4.20

So, <u>the unit price of potatoes per pound at Baldwin Hills market</u> =\frac{\$ 4.20}{7}=\$ 0.60

As \$0.57 , that means <u>the unit price of the potatoes per pound at grocery mart is less than the Baldwin Hills market</u>.

So, the grocery mart offers the best deal on potato’s.

The price of the potatoes per pound at grocery mart is (\$0.60-\$0.57)=\$0.03 less than the price at Baldwin Hills market.
