Answer:
a)
Given Statement - If x and y are a pair of consecutive integers, then x and y have opposite parity.
Proof by Contrapositive:
Assumed statement: Suppose that integers x and y do not have opposite parity.
Proven Statement: x and y are not a pair of consecutive integers.
Proof -
x = 2u₁ , y = 2u₂
Then
(x, x+1) = (2u₁ , 2u₁ + 1) = (Even, odd)
If y = 2u₁ + 1
Not possible
⇒x and y are not a pair of consecutive integers.
Hence proved.
Proof by Contradiction:
Assumed statement: Suppose x and y are not a pair of consecutive integers.
Proven Statement: Suppose x and y do not have opposite parity.
Proof -
If x and y are not a pair of consecutive integers.
⇒ either x and y are odd or even
If x and y are odd
⇒x and y have same parity
Contradiction
If x and y are even
⇒x and y have same parity
Contradiction
(b)
Proof by Contrapositive:
Assumed statement: Let n be an integer such that n is not odd (i.e. n is an even integer)
Proven Statement: n² is not odd (i.e n² is even)
Proof -
Let n is even
⇒n = 2m
⇒n² = (2m)² = 4m²
⇒n² is even
Hence proved.
Proof by Contradiction:
Assumed statement: Let n be an integer such that n² be odd.
Proven Statement: suppose that n is not odd (i.e n is even)
Proof -
Let n² is odd
⇒n² is even
⇒n² = 2m
⇒2 | n²
⇒2 | n
⇒n = 2x
⇒ n is even
Contradiction
Find the equation of the line passing through the points (-2,8) and (8,- 7). Write the equation in
slope-intercept form.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y=mx+b\\ \\ m=\frac{-7-8}{8-\ -2}=\frac{-15}{10}=\ -\frac{3}{2}\\ \\ y=\ -\frac{3x}{2}+b,\ (-2,8)\\ \\ 8=\ -\frac{3(-2)}{2}+b\\ \\ 8=3+b,\ b=5\\ \\ y=\frac{10-3x}{2}[/tex]
Answer: y = - 3/2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation in slope intercept form, you will have to find the slope and the y-intercept.
(-2,8) (8,-7)
To find the slope using these points, you will find the difference in the y coordinates and divide it by the difference in the x coordinates.
-7 - 8 = - 15
8 - (-2) = 10
Slope: -15/10 = -3/2
The slope is -3/2
Now using the formula y=mx+b , use one of the given points and the slope to solve for b , which is the y-intercept.
8 = -3/2(-2) + b
8 = 3 + b
-3 -3
b = 5

a circle with the diameter of 40 inches. what is the area?
Answer:
A= 1256
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for area of a circle is [tex]A=\pi r^{2}[/tex]
1. Diameter is DOUBLE of radius, so the diameter must be divided by 2. 40/2 = 20.
2. Then, plug in the values into the area formula. A= 3.14[tex](20^{2})[/tex]
3. Solve. A= 1256. (Remember that 20 squared is 20x20)

Answer:
Question 6: I know that (8 + 9) + 3 is equal to 8 + (9 + 3) because of the associative property states that you can change the grouping of addends in any order you want. The benefit to using this property is that you can first add numbers that you can combine more easily. For example, (743 + 51) + 49 can be written as 743 + (51 + 49) or 743 + 100. It is more straightforward to add the numbers that equal 100 first and then add the final number.
Question 3: -3(4x + 3) + 5x [Given]; -12x - 9 + 5x [Distributive Property]; -12x + 5x - 9 [Commutative Property]; -7x - 9 [Combine like-terms]. [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (6k + 10) + 5k [Given]; 3k + 5 + 5k [Distributive Property]; 3k + 5k + 5 [Commutative Property]; 8k + 5 [ Combine like-terms].
Question 4: 4(2 - 5) - 8 = 4 * (-3) - 8 = -12 - 8 = -20; 4 * 2 - 28 = 8 - 28 = -20.
Question 5: 15 * 3 - 2(2 * 3 + 6) = 45 - 2(6 + 6) = 45 - 2(12) = 45 - 24 = 21; 11 * 3 - 12 = 33 - 12 = 21.

brian is buying cans of baked beans for a camping trip.each can is 15 ounces.if he buys 7 cans,about how many pounds of beans is he buying?
2 pounds
5 pounds
7 pounds
10 pounds
Answer:
about 7 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
NOTE: 16 ounces equals a pound
so, we would do 15x7 which equals 105 ounces. then we would do 105/16 since 105 is the ounces in total and 16 ounces=1 pound. so our answer would equal to 6.5625. which rounded off would be about 7 pounds. I hope this is correct /helps!:)

SHAYNA FREEL PLANS TO BUY $17.45 WORTH OF STATIONERY SUPPLIES. IF THE SALES TAX IS 13%, HOW MUCH WILL SHAYNA PAY?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$19.72
Step-by-step explanation:
The sales tax is 13% of $17.45:
0.13 × $17.45 = $2.27 . . . . . . rounded (up) to the nearest cent
Then the total Shayna will pay is ...
$17.45 +2.27 = $19.72

The evaluation of the expression is 150.
What is an expression?In mathematics, expression is the combination of variables with the application of operations and prescribed rules. It might take the shape of an equation, some numbers, etc.
The given expression is:
-a² + 7b⁴ -2c³
Substituting, a= -4 b= -2 and c=-3
-a² + 7b⁴ -2c³
= -(-4)² + 7(-2)⁴ -2(-3)³
= -16 + 7 x 16 + 54
= 150
Therefore, the value of the expression is 150.

A cab company charges a $3.95 flat fee for rides up to 15 miles. For rides over 15 miles, the company charges the $3.95 flat fee and $1.25 per mile for every mile over 15 miles up to 75 miles. For rides over 75 miles the company charges a flat fee of $78.95 and $0.75 per mile over 75 miles. Using this information, write an equation that represents the total cost of the trip as a function of the number of miles traveled. (Remember: Identify your input and output variables, and use proper notation – I recommend you handwrite your function and add a picture in to this document)
Answer:
There are three intervals depending on the mileage:
0 - 15 miles15 - 75 milesMore than 75 milesFor each interval we have different cost and equation
Let miles = x, cost = y, then the equations are:
0 < x ≤ 15 ⇒ y = 3.9515 < x ≤ 75 ⇒ y = 1.25x + 3.95x > 75 ⇒ y = 0.85x + 78.95Step-by-step explanation:0 - 15 miles
15 - 75 miles
More than 75 miles
For each interval we have different cost and equation
Let miles = x, cost = y, then the equations are:
0 < x ≤ 15 ⇒ y = 3.95
15 < x ≤ 75 ⇒ y = 1.25x + 3.95
x > 75 ⇒ y = 0.85x + 78.95
13x+7=215

Solve the equation and enter the value of x
Answer:
x=16, have a great day
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
13x + 7 = 215
13x = 208 (Subtract 7 from both sides.)
x = 16 (Divide both sides by 13)

em um campeonato de ciclismo um atleta precisou percorrer 54 000 m para a faixa de Chegada Sabendo que Ele demorou 7 2000 Segundos a Concluir a Corrida qual foi dua Velocidade Media em Km/h?
Answer:
Average speed in km / h = 2.7 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total distance = 54,000 m
Total time = 72,000 sec
Find:
Average speed in km / h
Computation:
Average speed = Distance / Time
Average speed = 54,000 / 72,000
Average speed = 0.75 m/s
1 m/s = 3.6 km/h
So,
Average speed in km / h = 0.75 x 3.6
Average speed in km / h = 2.7 km/h
