can every odd whole number be written as the difference of two squares

Answers

Answer 1
No. Not every odd number can be written as the dif of 2 squares
Answer 2

Every odd whole number can indeed be written as the difference of two squares, leveraging the fact that the difference between the squares of consecutive integers is an odd number.

The question whether every odd whole number can be written as the difference of two squares is of arithmetical and algebraic interest. The answer is yes, every odd whole number can be expressed as such. For example, consider the odd whole number 7. This number can be expressed as 4^2 - 3^2, which simplifies to 16 - 9, giving us 7. Generally, for any odd whole number n, we can find whole numbers x and y such that n = x^2 - y^2. This is because we can write n = (m+1)^2 - m^2, where m is an integer. Essentially, m can be taken as (n-1)/2 which ensures that m and m+1 are consecutive integers, hence their squares differ by an odd number, which is n.

A pitcher contains 1 3/4 quarts of milk. How many fluid ounces of milk does the pitcher contain ?

Answers

It contains 56 fl oz.
Final answer:

1 3/4 quarts is equivalent to 56 fluid ounces. This conversion is done by first converting the mixed fraction to an improper fraction, and then multiplying by 32, which is the number of ounces in one quart.

Explanation:

The subject of your question is Mathematics, specifically a unit conversion problem. You want to convert 1 3/4 quarts of milk to fluid ounces. We know that there are 32 fluid ounces in one quart. So, to convert quarts to fluid ounces, we multiply the number of quarts by 32:

For 1 3/4 quarts:

1. First, convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction: (1 * 4) + 3 = 7/4 quarts

2. Multiply by 32(our conversion factor from quarts to fluid ounces): (7/4) * 32 = 56

So, 1 3/4 quarts is equal to 56 fluid ounces.

Notice that -2y appears in both equations.  Multiply the first equation by -1, obtaining 

5x + 2y = -2               and then adding the second equation to this result:
6x  -2t   = 24

11x        = 22, so x = 2.  Now subst. 2 for x in either of the original equations to find the value of y.

If you select a card at random, what is the probability of getting:A number smaller than 5 (counting the ace as a 1)?

Answers

4 Aces, 4 2's, 4 3's 4 4's

= 16 cards total out of 52 cards

 so probability would be 16/52 which reduces to 4/13

the probability of selecting a card smaller than 5 is [tex]\ = \frac{2}{5} \).[/tex]

Step 1

To calculate the probability of selecting a card with a number smaller than 5 (considering the ace as 1), we need to determine how many cards meet this condition and divide it by the total number of cards in the deck.

There are 4 suits in a standard deck of cards, each with cards numbered from 1 to 10 (excluding face cards).

For each suit, the numbers smaller than 5 are 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Step 2

So, for each suit, there are 4 cards smaller than 5.

Since there are 4 suits, the total number of cards smaller than 5 is [tex]\(4 \times 4 = 16\).[/tex]

Step 3

The total number of cards in the deck is [tex]\(4 \times 10 = 40\)[/tex], considering 4 suits with 10 cards each.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a card smaller than 5 is [tex]\( \frac{16}{40} = \frac{2}{5} \).[/tex]

Find the LCM of n^3 t^2 and nt^4.

A) n 4t^6
B) n 3t^6
C) n 3t^4
D) nt^2

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common multiple (LCM) of any two numbers is the smallest number that they both divide evenly into.

The given terms are [tex]n^3t^2[/tex] and [tex]nt^4[/tex].

The factored form of each term is

[tex]n^3t^2=n\times n\times n\times t\times t[/tex]

[tex]nt^4=n\times t\times t\times t\times t[/tex]

To find the LCM of given numbers, multiply all factors of both terms and common factors of both terms are multiplied once.

[tex]LCM(n^3t^2,nt^4)=n\times n\times n\times t\times t\times t\times t[/tex]

[tex]LCM(n^3t^2,nt^4)=n^3t^4[/tex]

The LCM of given terms is [tex]n^3t^4[/tex]. Therefore the correct option is C.

Answer: C) n 3t^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition : The least common multiple (LCM) of any two expressions is the smallest expression that is divisible by both expressions.

Given expressions : [tex]n^3 t^2 \text{ and } nt^4[/tex]

Factorization form of [tex]n^3 t^2 \text{ and } nt^4[/tex] will be :

[tex]n^3 t^2 =n\times n\times n\times t\times t[/tex]

tex]nt^4 =n \times t\times t\times t\times t[/tex]

The least common multiple of [tex]n^3 t^2 \text{ and } nt^4[/tex] :

[tex]n^3 t^2 =n\times n\times n\times t\times t\times t\times t=n^3t^4[/tex]

Hence, the LCM of   [tex]n^3 t^2 \text{ and } nt^4=n^3t^4[/tex]

A circuit board manufacturer can produce 2,000 boards per hour. How many days will it take to produce 16,500 if the company has a 10 hour work shift? How many days will it take to produce 16,500?

Answers

Hi Mrsdiaz1jd1977owwfvt!
OK so 2,000 boards per hour in 10 hours is 2,000*10=20,000 boards in 10 hours. So it can produce 16,500 boards in less than a day.
I may be wrong but I hope this helps!

Answer:

it will take less than one day.

Step-by-step explanation:

A circuit board manufacturer can produce 2,000 boards per hour.

If the company has a 10 hour work shift.

manufacturer can produce in one day  = 2000 × 10 = 20,000

To produce 16,500 boards, they need time = 16,500 ÷ 2000  = 8.25 hours

The company will take to produce 16,500 boards in 8.25 hours less than one day.
