Clearly, |S| = 50.

Count the multiples of 2 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/2⌋ = ⌊25⌋ = 25

(where ⌊x⌋ denotes the "floor of x", or the largest integer that is smaller than or equal to x; in other words, round <u>down</u> to the nearest integer)

Count the multiples of 3 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/3⌋ ≈ ⌊16.667⌋ = 16

Since LCM(2, 3) = 6, the sets of multiples of 2 and multiples of 3 have some overlap. Count the multiples of 6 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/6⌋ ≈ ⌊8.333⌋ = 8

Then by the inclusion/exclusion principle, we remove from S

25 + 16 - 8 = 33

elements, so that the new set S contains 50 - 33 = 17 elements.

Cloud [144]

Answer:

11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula: d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2

1. d=\sqrt{(-4-5)^2+(-3-4)^2}

2. d=\sqrt{(-9)^2+(-7)^2}

3. d=\sqrt{81+49}

4. d=\sqrt{130}

5. d=11.4017

6. d=11.4
