C because 120+120=240 then 80+80=160 160+240=400

why is there no need to go further than the multiples of 7 when checking if a number less than 100 is prime

andrezito [222]

Step-by-step explanation:

because 7 is the highest prime number that when squared is less than 100, 11 yhe next prime number when squared is 121. As such all non-prime numbers less than 100 will be a would have prime factors of either 2, 3, 5 & 7

Find a positive number for which the sum of it and its reciprocal is the smallest (least) possible. Let x be the number and let

Allisa [31]

Answer:

$S(x) = x + \frac{1}{x}$ --- Objective function

Interval = $\{x:x=1\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the number with x

The required sum can be represented as:

$x + \frac{1}{x}$

Hence, the objective function is:

$S(x) = x + \frac{1}{x}$

To get the the interval, we start by differentiating w.r.t x

<em>Using first principle, this gives:</em>

$S'(x) = 1 - \frac{1}{x^2}$

Equate S'(x) to 0 in order to solve for x

$0 = 1 - \frac{1}{x^2}$

Subtract 1 from both sides

$0 -1 = 1 -1 - \frac{1}{x^2}$

$-1 = - \frac{1}{x^2}$

Multiply both sides by -1

$1 = \frac{1}{x^2}$

Cross Multiply

$x^2 * 1 = 1$

$x^2 = 1$

Take positive square root of both sides because x is positive

$\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{1$

$x = 1$

Representing x using interval notation, we have

Interval = $\{x:x=1\}$

To get the smallest sum, we substitute 1 for x in $S(x) = x + \frac{1}{x}$

$S(1) = 1 + \frac{1}{1}$

$S(1) = 1 + 1$

$S(1) = 2$

<em>Hence, the smallest sum is 2</em>

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Part A) The percentage increase was $6.1\%$

Part B) Michael is financially better off this year than last year

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

we know that

Using proportion

Let

x-----> the percentage increase

$\frac{100\%}{33,000}=\frac{x\%}{35,000-33,000}\\ \\x=2,000*100\%/33,000\\ \\x=6.1\%$

Part B) Compare the percentage increase with the inflation

$6.1\%>5\%$

The percentage increase is greater than the inflation

therefore

Michael is financially better off this year than last year
