1 answer:

7 0

If 68 minutes ago it (then) was three times as many minutes past 10 am (now)

x + 68 = 3 ×
×
(120 - x) →
→
x = 73 min
… if 68 minutes ago it (now) was three times as many minutes past 10 am (then)

x = 3 ×
×
[120 - (x + 68)] →
→
x = 39 min
… if 68 minutes ago it (then) was three times as many minutes past 10 am (then)

x + 68 = 3 ×
×
[120 - (x + 68)] →
→
x = 22 min

Which of these is NOT an integer

Tema [17]

Hi there!

»»————-　★　————-««

I believe your answer is:

Option A

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Option A:}}\\\\3^{-5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{3^5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{243}\\\\\ \text{This is \textbf{NOT} an integer.}}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Option B:}}\\\\-3^5\\\\\rightarrow -3 * -3 * -3 * -3 * -3 \\\\\rightarrow \boxed{-243}\\\\\\\text{This \textbf{IS} an integer.}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Option C:}}\\\\\frac{1}{3}^{-5} \\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{(\frac{1}{3})^5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{1}{\frac{1}{243} }\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{243}\\\\\\\text{This \textbf{IS} an integer.}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\text{Option \textbf{A} does not simplify into an integer.}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount

faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />
