A jar contains some number of pennies. When pennies are removed 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 8 at a
time, one penny is left over. There are no pennies left over when they are removed 7 at a
time. What is the least number of pennies that could be in the jar?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

721.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number must be a multiple of 7

One less than the number is the LCM of 2 3 4 5 6 and 8.

The LCM is worked out as follows

2

3

4 = 2*2

5

6 = 2*3

8 = 2*2*2

LCM = 2*2*2* 3*5 = 120

But 121 is not divisible by 7 so it must be a multiple of 120 + 1 which is divisible by 7.

240 + 1 = 241 - not divisible by 7

480 + 1  = 481 - not divisible by 7

720 + 1 = 721

721/7 = 103

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say n the number of pennies in the jar.

n is a multiple of 7 : n=7*k

n-1 is a multiple of 2,3,4,5,6,8 so a multiple of the lcm= 120

n-1=120*t

n-1=120*t

n=7*k

120*t=7k-1

7k=120*t+1

[tex]k=\dfrac{120*t+1}{7}\\k=17*t+\dfrac{t+1}{7}\\t=6+7*a\\k=17*(6+7a)+\frac{6+7*a+1}{7} =102+119*a+1+a=103+120*a\\n=7*k=7*(103+120*a)=721+840a\\\\[/tex]

The least number of pennies is 721 (when a=0)

Proof:

n-1=720

720/2=360

720/3=240

720/4=180

720/5=144

720/8=90

721/7=103

a.) The median player salary for the New York Yankees was $1.5 million in 2007 and $1.7 million in 2013. Write a linear equation giving the median salary y in terms of the year x. (Let y be in millions of dollars and let
x = 7
represent 2007.)

b.) Use the equation to predict the median salary in 2048. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
$ million

Answers

A general linear equation is given by:

[tex]y = a*x + b[/tex]

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here we will find that the linear equation that represents the situation is

[tex]y = 0.033*x + 1.269[/tex]

And we can expect that the median salary in 2048 is $2.853 million

If the line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) then the slope can be written as:

[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Here we know that:

in 2007 (x = 7) the median player salary was y = $1.5 million

in 2013 (x = 13) the median player salary was y = $1.7 million.

Then we have two points that we can write as:

(7, 1.5)

(13, 1.7)

Note that the y-value is in millions.

Then the slope of the linear equation will be:

[tex]a = \frac{1.7 - 1.5}{13 - 7} = 0.033[/tex]

So the linear equation is something like:

[tex]y = 0.033*x + b[/tex]

To find the value of b, remember the point (7, 1.5), this means that when we have x = 7, we also have y = 1.5, then we can replace these in the above equation:

[tex]1.5 = 0.033*7 + b\\\\1.5 - 0.033*7 = b = 1.269[/tex]

Then the linear equation is:

[tex]y = 0.033*x + 1.269[/tex]

b) Now we want to predict the median salary in 2048. For 2048 the x-value is x = 48

So we just need to evaluate this in the linear equation:

[tex]y = 0.033*48 + 1.269 = 2.853[/tex]

Then the median salary in 2048 will be $2.853 million

11. Write y = 2x² +12x+14 in vertex form.

Please show work if possible so I know how to do it

Answers

Answer:

y = 2(x + 3)² - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² + 1 2x + 14

Move the constant  (14) to the left side

y - 14 = 2x² + 12x

Now factor out 'a' , the coefficient  of  x² term

y - 14= 2(x² + 6x)

Divide the coefficient  of 'x' by 2 ⇒ 6/2 = 3

Find the square of '3' and add it to x² + 6x   ⇒ x² + 6x + 9

Multiply the square of 3 and add it to y - 14; 9*2 = 18

y- 14  = 2(x² + 6x + 9)

y  - 14 + 18 = 2(x² + 6x + 9)

y + 4 = 2(x² + 6x +9)

y + 4 = 2(x + 3)²

y = 2(x + 3)² - 4

**3. What is the y-intercept of the line that has a slope of
-4 and passes through the point (4, -6)?

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll first write in point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where (x1, y1) is our point and m is our slope.

Then convert into slope-intercept form to make it easier to find the y-intercept.

y - (-6) = -4(x-4)

y + 6 = -4(x-4)

y + 6 = -4x + 16

y = -4x + 10

Now that we've put the equation in slope-intercept form, we see that our b-value

y = mx + b

b = 10, so our y-intercept is 10

solve the equation
5(2x + 8) = - 33 +53

Answers

5(2x + 8) = –33 + 53

10x= –33+53–40

10x = –20

x = –20/ 10

x = – 2

Suppose y varies directly as x, and y = 9 when x = 36. Find y when x= 100.​

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = 36

y =  9

x2 = 100

y2 = y2

y : x :: y2 : x2

We know,

Product of means = Product of extremes

That is,

y(x2) = x(y2)

Substituting the values,

9(100) = 36(y2)

=> 36(y2) = 900

=> y2 = 900/36

=> y2 = 25

so when x = 100, y =25

30% is the same thing as 0.3, which is 30% of 1.

0.3 is what you multiply numbers if you want to see what 30% of that number is as 0.3 is 30% of 1, the whole number.

3/10 is the same value as 30% because 3 divided by 10 is equal to 0.3, which is 30%.

The dots in the boxes are also the same thing as 3/10. There are 10 boxes, and 3 out of the 10 have dots, which is 3/10 and 30%.

The one that does not belong is 0.333333...... This is equivalent to 1/3, which is greater than 30%, 0.3, and 3/10.

Ramesh took a loan of rs 50000 from Urmila at the rate of 10%p.a. if he paid half of the principal and all the interest at the end of 3 years

P= 80000

R = 10% '

1st-year amount = 88000

10% compounded annually

If you pay the loan of  55000 at the end of year 2, constant payment from year 1 After that, I paid 110% of the balance. C. I have always calculated in terms of the previous year's amounts

= \frac{55000}{110} \times 100 = 50000

So after the first year, a certain amount is paid, and the remaining amount is will be 50000.

So a certain amount to be paid in 1 year = 88000 -50000 = 38000
