Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We have 15! as the product of 1 to 15 natural numbers.  Since 17 is prime there will be no factor common to these

By actual division we find

15! (mod 17) =16

From this we deduce

even 16! mod 17 = 16 = -1

According to Wilson theorem

(17-1)! = -1 mod 17

Thus verified 17 is prime

Hence 15! (mod 17) =-1=16

-----------------------

b) 2(26!) is divided by 29

Since 29 is prime

(29-1)! = -1 mod 29

28! = -1 mod 29 = 28

When divided this gives 25 as remainder

Answer:

3,-3) becomes ; (3 + 5 , -3-12) ; (8,-15)

(7,-10) becomes;( 7 + 5, -10-12) ; (12,-22)

(13,-14) becomes (7 + 13, -14-10) ; (20,-24)

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do here is to add 5 to the x-axis value and subtract 12 from the y-axis value

(3,-3) becomes ; (3 + 5 , -3-12) ; (8,-15)

(7,-10) becomes;( 7 + 5, -10-12) ; (12,-22)

(13,-14) becomes (7 + 13, -14-10) ; (20,-24)

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric f
likoan [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangular plot.

The plot is bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric fence. It means,

x+2y = 1500

x = 1500 - 2y ....(1)

We know that the area of a rectangular plot is given by :

A = xy ....(2)

Put the value of x from equation (1) in (2)

A=(1500-2y)y\\\\A=1500y-2y^2 .....(3)

For largest area, differentiate above area equation wrt y.

\dfrac{dA}{dy}=\dfrac{d}{dy}(1500y-2y^2)\\\\=1500-4y\\\\\text{Put}\ \dfrac{dA}{dy}=0\\\\1500-4y=0\\\\y=\dfrac{1500}{4}\\\\=375

Put the value of y in equation (1).

x = 1500-2(375)

= 750 m

Put the value of y in equation (3).

A =1500(375)-2(375)^2\\A=281250\ m^2

Hence, the largest area is 281250 m² and its dimensions are 750 m and 375 m.

Determine the measure of each segment then indicate whether the statements are true or false
kupik [55]

Answer:

d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}

d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}

d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the graph

Given the vertices of the segment AB

  • A(-4, 4)
  • B(2, 5)

Finding the length of AB using the formula

d_{AB}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

        =\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-4\right)\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{\left(2+4\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{6^2+1}

         =\sqrt{36+1}

        =\sqrt{37}

d_{AB}\:=\sqrt{37}

d_{AB}=6.08 units        

Given the vertices of the segment JK

  • J(2, 2)
  • K(7, 2)

From the graph, it is clear that the length of JK = 5 units

so

d_{JK}=5 units

Given the vertices of the segment GH

  • G(-5, -2)
  • H(-2, -2)

Finding the length of GH using the formula

d_{GH}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{\left(-2-\left(-5\right)\right)^2+\left(-2-\left(-2\right)\right)^2}

          =\sqrt{\left(5-2\right)^2+\left(2-2\right)^2}

          =\sqrt{3^2+0}

           =\sqrt{3^2}

\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule\:}\sqrt[n]{a^n}=a,\:\quad \mathrm{\:assuming\:}a\ge 0

d_{GH}\:=\:3 units

Thus, from the calculations, it is clear that:

d_{AB}=6.08  

d_{JK}=5

d_{GH}\:=\:3

Thus,

d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}

d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}

d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false
