Answer:

  • factor: a submultiple; an integer value that gives an integer quotient when the number is divided by it.
  • multiple: the product of the number and another integer

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Factors</h3>

A set of factors of a number (N) is a set of integers {f1, f2, f3, ...} whose product is the number:

  f1 × f2 × f3 × ... = N

Often the term "factors" is used to mean "prime factors," the set of prime numbers whose product is N.

When N = 25, the prime factors are {5, 5}. That is ...

  5×5 = 25

__

<h3>Divisors</h3>

A "divisor" of a number is a sub-multiple of N. That is, the quotient N/k is an integer for some divisor k of N. Usually, we're interested in integer divisors. All prime factors will be integer divisors of N. The term "factor" is often used when the term "divisor" is meant.

Divisors of N = 25 include 1, 5, and 25. There will be an odd number of integer divisors (as here) if the number N is a perfect square.

__

<h3>Multiples</h3>

For an integer k, the value k×N is called a <em>multiple</em> of N, often, the <em>k-th multiple</em> of N.

Multiples of 25 include 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, and any other decimal number ending in 25, 50, 75, or 00.

__

<em>Another example</em>

When N=30, the prime factors are {2, 3, 5}. The divisors are {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30}. (Note there are an even number of divisors.) Multiples of 30 include 30, 60, 90, 120, ....

A few weeks into the deadly SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) epidemic in 2003, the number of cases was increasing by abo
DaniilM [7]

Answer: The required exponential model is 1804(1.04)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial cases = 1804

Rate of growth = 4%

Since it is increasing exponentially,

So, it becomes,

A=ab^t

Here, a = 1804

b = 1+r=1+0.04=1.04

So, it becomes,

A=1804(1.04)^t

Hence, the required exponential model is 1804(1.04)^t

What is the equation of a line the passes through the point (-1,3) and has a slope of -3?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Given points ( -1 ,3 ) and slope(m) = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The </em><em>equation </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>line </em><em>is </em><em>given </em><em>by </em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1 </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>3</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>3</em>

<em>3x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>-</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>0</em>

<em>3x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>required </em><em>equation </em>
