If A, B, and C are integers between 1 and 10 (inclusive), how many different combinations of A, B, and C exist such that A

Answers

[tex]\fontsize{18}{10}{\textup{\textbf{The number of different combinations is 120.}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A, B and C are integers between 1 and 10  such that A<B<C.

The value of A can be minimum 1 and maximum 8.

If A = 1, B = 2, then C can be one of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (8 options).

If A = 1, B = 3, then C has 7 options (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).

If A = 1, B = 4, then C has 6 options (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).

If A = 1, B = 5, then C has 5 options (6, 7, 8, 10).

If A = 1, B = 6, then C has 4 options (7, 8, 9, 10).

If A = 1, B = 7, then C has 3 options (8, 9, 10).

If A = 1, B = 8, then C has 2 options (9, 10).

If A = 1, B = 9, then C has 1 option (10).

So, if A = 1, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_1=1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8=\dfrac{8(8+1)}{2}=36.[/tex]

Similarly, if A = 2, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_2=1+2+3+4+5+6+7=\dfrac{7(7+1)}{2}=28.[/tex]

If A = 3, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_3=1+2+3+4+5+6=\dfrac{6(6+1)}{2}=21.[/tex]

If A = 4, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_4=1+2+3+4+5=\dfrac{5(5+1)}{2}=15.[/tex]

If A = 5, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_5=1+2+3+4=\dfrac{4(4+1)}{2}=10.[/tex]

If A = 6, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_6=1+2+3=\dfrac{3(3+1)}{2}=6.[/tex]

If A = 7, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_7=1+2=\dfrac{2(2+1)}{2}=3.[/tex]

If A = 3, then the number of combinations is

[tex]n_8=1.[/tex]

Therefore, the total number of combinations is

[tex]n\\\\=n_1+n_2+n_3+n_4+n_5+n_6+n_7+n_8\\\\=36+28+21+15+10+6+3+1\\\\=120.[/tex]

Thus, the required number of different combinations is 120.

Andrew and Sarah are tracking the number of steps they walk. Andrew records that he can walk 6000 steps in 50 minutes. Sarah writes the equation y=118x where y is the number of steps and x is the number of minutes she walks, to describe her step rate.

Answers

Answer:

Andrew walks more steps than Sarah.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Andrew and Sarah are tracking the number of steps they walk. Andrew records that he can walk 6000 steps in 50 minutes. Sarah writes the equation y=118x, where y is the number of steps and x is the number of minutes she walks, to describe her step rate. This week, Andrew and Sarah each walk for a total of 5 hours. Who walks more steps?

Solution:

Given:

Andrew walks 6000 steps in 50 minutes.

Number of steps Sarah walks is given by the equation :

[tex]y=118x[/tex]

where [tex]y[/tex] is the number of steps and [tex]x[/tex] is the number of minutes she walks.

Finding the number of steps each walks in 5 hours.

Total number of minutes in 5 hours = [tex]5\times 60 = 300\ min[/tex]

For Andrew:

Using unitary method:

If in 50 minutes Andrew walks = 6000 steps.

In 1 minute he will walk = [tex]\frac{6000}{50}[/tex] = 120 steps

In 300 minutes he will walk = [tex]120\times 300 = 36000[/tex] steps

Thus, Andrew will walk 36,000 steps in 5 hours.

For Sarah:

We will plugin [tex]x=300[/tex] in the equation and solve for [tex]y[/tex].

We have:

[tex]y=118(300)[/tex]

∴ [tex]y=35400[/tex]

Thus, Sarah will walk 35,400 steps in 5 hours.

Therefore, Andrew walks more steps than Sarah as [tex]36,000>35,400[/tex].

Indra baked and frosted a rectangular cake to sell at a bake sale for the Model UN club. The cake, including frosting, was 4 inches high, 16 inches wide, and 12 inches long. She centered the cake on a circular tray. The circular tray had a radius of 10 inches. What is the area, to the nearest square inch, of the tray that is not covered by the cake?
A. 100
B. 114
C. 122
D. 314
E. 192

Answers

Answer:

C. 122

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Dimension of the cake:

Length = 12 in      Width = 16 in      Height = 4 in

We have to find out the area of the tray that is not covered by the cake.

Indra centered the cake on a circular tray.

Radius of the tray = 10 in.

So area of the tray is equal to π times square of the radius.

Framing in equation form, we get;

Area of tray =[tex]\pi\times r^2=3.14\times{10}^2=3.14\times 100=314\ in^2[/tex]

Since the cake is placed in circular tray.

That means only base area of cake has covered the tray.

Base Area of cake = [tex]length\times width=12\times 16=192\ in^2[/tex]

Area of the tray that is not covered by the cake is calculated by subtracting area of base of cake from area of circular tray.

We can frame it in equation form as;

Area of the tray that is not covered by the cake = Area of tray - Base Area of cake

Area of the tray that is not covered by the cake =[tex]314-192=122\ in^2[/tex]

Hence The area of the tray that is not covered by the cake is 122 sq. in.

Suppose an oligopoly consists of two firms. Firm A lowers price and Firm B responds by lowering its price by the same amount. If average costs and industry output remain the same, which of the following will occur?

Answers

Answer:

The profits for firma A and B will decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oligopoly by definition "is a market structure with a small number of firms, none of which can keep the others from having significant influence. The concentration ratio measures the market share of the largest firms".

If the costs remain the same for both companies and both firms decrease the prices then we will have a decrease of profits, we can see this on the figure attached.

We have an equilibrium price (let's assume X) and when we decrease a price and we have the same level of output the area below the curve would be lower and then we will have less profits for both companies.

A combination lock uses a 3-digit code. Each digit can be any one of the ten available integers 0-9. How many different combinations are possible?

Answers

Answer:

  1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Each value of the first digit can be paired with any value of the second digit, so there are 10×10 = 100 possible pairs of the first two digits. Each of those can be combined with any third digit to give a total of ...

  10×10×10 = 1000

possible combinations.

Final answer:

A combination lock with a 3-digit code where each digit can be 0-9 allows for 1000 different combinations, as calculated by 10 x 10 x 10, which equals 10³ or 1000.

Explanation:

The question asks how many different 3-digit combinations are possible with a combination lock where each digit can range from 0-9. Each digit of the code is independent and can take any of the ten possible values (0-9), leading to a total combination of possibilities calculated by multiplying the number of choices for each digit position. Given that there are three digit positions and each can be any of the ten digits, the calculation is as follows:

10 (choices for first digit) × 10 (choices for second digit) × 10 (choices for third digit) = 10³

Therefore, there are 1000 different possible combinations for the lock, ranging from 000 to 999.

Answer

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 4.

Segment AD is 12 and segment AE is 8.

Answer:

Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

side AB = 6

side AC = 4

Now we need to prove  that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length.

Solution:

Now AD + DB = AB also AE + EC = AC

DB = AB - AD also EC = AC - AE

Now we take first option Segment AD is 3 and segment AE is 2.

Substituting we get;

DB = 6-3 = 3 also EC = 4-2 =2

From above we can say that;

AD = DB and EC = AE

So we can say that segment DE bisects Segment AB and AC equally.

Hence From Midpoint theorem which states that;

"The line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side."

Bob drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 8 hours. When Bob drove home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 5 hours. If his average rate was 21 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does Bob live from the mountains? Do not do any rounding.

Answers

Answer:280 miles

let x=rate of speed on the way to mountains

x+21=rate of speed on the way home

travel time*rate=distance

8x=5(x+21)

8x=5x+105

3x=105

x=35

8x=280

how far away does Bob live from the mountains? =280 miles

Final answer:

Bob lives 280 miles away from the mountains. We solved for the slower speed and then calculated the distance using the time it took Bob to get to the mountains and his average speed during that trip.

Explanation:

Finding the Distance to the Mountains

To find out how far Bob lives from the mountains, we need to set up an equation based on the information given about time and average speed. Since the average rate was 21 miles per hour faster on the return trip and the times for the trips are known (8 hours to the mountains and 5 hours returning), we can let the slower speed be 's' and the faster speed be s' + 21'.

We can now create two equations based on the definition that Distance = Speed *Time:

Coming back home (faster speed): Distance = (s + 21) *5 hours

Since the distance to the mountains and back home is the same, we can equate these two expressions:

s * 8 = (s + 21)* 5

Calculating the Speed and Distance

Now we solve for 's':

8s = 5s + 105

8s - 5s = 105

3s = 105

s = 35

Thus, the slower speed was 35 miles per hour. We can plug this back into either equation to find the distance:

Distance = 35 miles/hour * 8 hours

Distance = 280 miles

Therefore, Bob lives 280 miles away from the mountains.

Well, to complete the sentence, first we need to be aware of types of validity of experiments such as criterion validity, ecological validity, content validity , factorial validity, etc.

In this particular example, it is stated that the results of an experiment can be applied to real-world conditions. Therefore, the experiment is said to have ecological validity considering the fact that results applied to real-world conditions.

When the results of an experiment can be applied to real-world conditions, that experiment is said to have external validity.

External validity refers to the degree to which the findings of a study can be generalised beyond the study's specific conditions to real-world situations. It's crucial for research to have external validity to ensure its applicability and relevance outside of the laboratory setting.

Mandy is building a rectangular garden pond with the area on 12ft^2. The length of the pool needs to be 2ft more than twice that width. What are the dimensions of the pool

Answers

Answer: the length is 6 feet. The width is 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The garden pool is rectangular in shape.

Let L represent the length of the rectangular garden.

Let W represent the width of the rectangular garden.

The area of a rectangle is expressed as L× W. The area of the rectangular garden pond is 12ft^2. It means that

L× W = 12 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The length of the pool needs to be 2ft more than twice that width. This means that

L = 2W + 2 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

W(2W + 2) = 12

2W^2 + 2W = 12

2W^2 + 2W - 12 = 0

W^2 + W - 6 = 0

W^2 + 3W - 2W - 6 = 0

W(W + 3) - 2(W + 3) = 0

W - 2 = 0 or W + 3 = 0

W = 2 or W = - 3

Since the Width cannot be negative, then the width is 2 feet

Substituting W = 2 into equation 2. It becomes

L = 2×2 + 2 = 6 feet

So then we can conclude that :

A set of logically interrelated concepts, statements, propositions, and definitions supported by data, testing, and verification to account for or characterize some phenomena is called theory.

Final answer:

A theory is a comprehensive explanation for observed phenomena that is supported by evidence and repeated validation. It is a core component of scientific understanding, which relies on the scientific method for development and verification.

Explanation:

A set of logically interrelated concepts, statements, propositions, and definitions supported by data, testing, and verification to account for or characterize some phenomena is called a theory. In science, a theory is a well-developed set of ideas that propose an explanation for observed phenomena. It involves a hypothesis, or group of hypotheses, that has been substantiated through repeated experiments or empirical observations. Theories are used to make predictions about future observations and can be revised as new evidence is discovered.

The validity of a theory is determined by the accuracy of its predictions and the extent to which it can measure what it is designed to measure. A robust theory not only explains the phenomena in question but is also supported by a wide range of scientific evidence and has been verified multiple times by various groups of researchers using the scientific method.

The length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 hours and a standard deviation of 0.25 hours. A sample size of n = 60 is drawn randomly from the population. Find the probability that the sample mean is between two hours and three hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = length of time

u = mean time

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 2.5 hours

s = 0.25 hours

We want to find the probability that the sample mean is between two hours and three hours.. It is expressed as

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

For x = 2,

z = (2 - 2.5)/0.25 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.02275

For x = 3,

z = (3 - 2.5)/0.25 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.97725

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

= 0.97725 - 0.02275 = 0.9545

Final answer:

The probability that the sample mean is between two and three hours is practically 1, or 100%.

Explanation:

To find the probability that the SAT exam completion time sample mean for a group of students is between two and three hours, we need to calculate the z-scores for 2 hours and 3 hours and then use these z-scores to determine the corresponding probabilities.

Given:

- Population mean (= 2.5 hurs

- Standard deviation = 0.25 hours

- Sample size  = 60

We'll use the z-score formula:

[tex]\[ z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} \][/tex]

For X = 2  hours:

[tex]\[ z = \frac{2 - 2.5}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{60}}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z = \frac{-0.5}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{60}}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx \frac{-0.5}{\frac{0.25}{7.746}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx \frac{-0.5}{0.0323} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx -15.49 \][/tex]

For X = 3 hours:

[tex]\[ z = \frac{3 - 2.5}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{60}}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z = \frac{0.5}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{60}}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx \frac{0.5}{\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{60}}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx \frac{0.5}{0.0323} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z \approx 15.49 \][/tex]

Using the z-scores, we consult a standard normal distribution table or use a calculator to find the corresponding probabilities. Then, we calculate the difference between the two probabilities to get the probability that the sample mean is between two and three hours. Let me calculate the exact probabilities.

Using the z-scores calculated:

For z = -15.49 , the corresponding probability is practically 0 (since it's far in the left tail of the distribution).

For z = 15.49, the corresponding probability is practically 1 (since it's far in the right tail of the distribution).

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean is between two and three hours is practically 1, or 100%.

Chris uncle from japan promised to give him 42 g of gold .The local jewelry exchange will buy gold for $1286 per once.How much money can Chris get for selling the gold?

Answers

Answer:

Chris will make $1905.22 by selling gold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of gold Chris will have = 42 g

Current rate of gold = $1286 per ounce

We need to find the amount Chris will make after selling the gold.

Now we will first find Current rate of gold in grams.

We know that 1 ounce = 28.3495 grams.

So we can say that

28.3495 g = $1286

So 1 g = Rate of gold for 1 gram.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Rate of gold for 1 gram = [tex]\frac{1286}{28.3495} \approx \$45.3624[/tex]

Now we will find the amount for 42 g of gold

if 1 g = $45.3624

so 42 g = Amount of money for 42 g

Again by using Unitary method we get;

Amount of money for 42 g = [tex]42 \times 45.3624 \approx \$1905.22[/tex]

Hence Chris will make $1905.22 by selling gold.

Chris can get $1,736.10 by selling 42 grams of gold.

Chris's uncle from Japan has promised to give him 42 grams of gold. The local jewellery exchange will buy gold for $1286 per ounce. To find out how much money Chris can get for selling the gold, we need to convert grams to ounces and then multiply by the price per ounce. There are approximately 31.1035 grams in an ounce. So, to convert grams to ounces we use the following formula:

Divide the amount of gold in grams by the number of grams per ounce. 42 grams ÷ 31.1035 grams/ounce = 1.35 ounces.

Multiply the amount of gold in ounces by the current price of gold per ounce. 1.35 ounces × $1286/ounce = $1,736.10.

And international calling plan charges a rate per minute plus a flat fee. A 10 minute call to France costs $4.29. Right and solve a linear equation to find the cost of a 12 minute call to France

Answers

Answer:

The cost of a 12 minute call to France is $ 3.63

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

The cost of 15 minute call to France = $ 4.29

The cost of 10 minute call to France   = $ 3.19

To Find :

The cost of a 12 minute call to France = ?

Solution:

Let the flat fee be X

and the cost per minute be Y

so the  15 minute call to France will be

X + 15(Y) = 4.29---------------------------(1)

the  10 minute call to France will be

X + 10(X) = 3.19----------------------------(2)

Subtracting (2) from (1)

X + 15(Y) = 4.29

X + 10(Y) = 3.19

-      -           -

---------------------------------

      5Y = 1.10

--------------------------------

[tex]Y =\frac{1.10}{5}[/tex]

Y = 0.22

So the cost per minute of a call = $0.22

substituting the values in (1)

X + 15(0.22) = 4.29

X + 3.3 = 4.29

X = 4.29 -3.3

X = 0.99

Now the cost of 12 minute call is

=>X + 12(Y)

=> 0.99 + 12(0.22)

=> 0.99 + 2.64

=> 3.63

The number -13 can be classified as:

real and natural

real and whole

real and integer

real and irrational

Answers

Number -13 is classified as real and integer

Solution:

Given that The number -13 can be classified as

Let us first understand about real numbers, whole numbers, Integers and irrational numbers

Whole numbers:

Whole numbers are positive numbers, including zero, without any decimal or fractional parts. Negative numbers are not considered "whole numbers."

But -13 is a negative number. Therefore -13 is not a whole number

Real numbers:

Positive or negative, large or small, whole numbers or decimal numbers are all Real Numbers. They are called "Real Numbers" because they are not Imaginary Numbers.

Therefore -13 is a real number

Integers:

An integer is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero. Examples of integers are: -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3,043.

Therefore -13 is a integer

Irrational number:

An irrational number is real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers. An irrational number is not able to be written as a simple fraction because the numbers in the decimal of a fraction would go on forever

But -13 can be expressed in fraction as [tex]-13 \div 1[/tex]

Therefore -13 is not a irrational number

Thus we can conclude that number -13 is classified as real and integer

What is the value of secant theta given the diagram below? A unit circle is shown. A ray intersects point (negative 3, 6) in quadrant 2.

Negative StartRoot 5 EndRoot Negative StartFraction StartRoot 5 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction StartFraction StartRoot 5 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction StartRoot 5 EndRoot

Answers

Answer:

- √5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, a ray intersects point (negative 3, 6) in quadrant 2 and we are told to find the value of secant theta.

To get the answer to the question,  

The first step is to find the hypotenuse, we have to use the Pythagoras theorem  where, Hypotenuse = opposite raise to power two + adjacent raise to power.  

(I.e. h= O² + A²)

H = 6² + (-3)2

H = 36 + 9

H = 45

We then convert the answer to surds form.  

H = 3√5

The next step is to find the value of secant theta.  

To get the value of secant theta we will have to divide the hypotenuse by adjacent with a negative sign because of the negative sign in the second quadrant  

We have  

Sec ø = - (hypotenuse/adjacent)  

Sec ø = - (3√5/ 3)

Sec ø = - √5

Answer:

-√5

Step-by-step explanation:

the length of a rectangle increases at a rate of 0.5 cm/sec and the width decreases at a rate of 0.5 cm/sec at the time when the length is 10cm and the width is 7 cm what is the rate of change in the area of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let length=x

width=y

area A=xy

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=x\frac{dy}{dt}+y\frac{dx}{dt}\\ \frac{dx}{dt}=0.5 ~cm/sec\\\frac{dy}{dt}=-0.5~cm/sec\\\frac{dA}{dt}=10*(-0.5)+7(0.5)=-5+3.5=-1.5[/tex]

area is decreasing at the rate of 1.5 cm^2/sec

Final answer:

The rate of change in the area of the rectangle when the length is 10 cm and the width is 7 cm, with their rates of change being 0.5 cm/sec and -0.5 cm/sec respectively, is -1.5 cm²/sec.

Explanation:

To determine the rate of change in the area of a rectangle where the length is increasing at 0.5 cm/sec and the width is decreasing at 0.5 cm/sec, we can use the concept of derivatives from calculus.

Let L be the length and W be the width of the rectangle. The area A of the rectangle is given by A = L * W. Given that the length is increasing at 0.5 cm/sec (dL/dt = 0.5 cm/sec) and the width is decreasing at 0.5 cm/sec (dW/dt = -0.5 cm/sec) the rate of change of the area with respect to time can be found using the product rule for derivatives: dA/dt = (dL/dt) * W + L * (dW/dt).

At the moment when the length L is 10 cm and the width W is 7 cm, we can plug these values into the formula: dA/dt = (0.5 cm/sec) * 7 cm + 10 cm * (-0.5 cm/sec). This simplifies to dA/dt = 3.5 cm2/sec - 5 cm2/sec, giving us the rate of change in the area as dA/dt = -1.5 cm2/sec.

K12: Graph the image of this triangle after a dilation with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin.

An employee earns $7.00 an hour for the first 35 hours worked in a week and $10.50 for any hour over 35. One week's paycheck (before deduction) was for $308.00. How many hours did the employee work

Answers

Answer: the employee worked for 41 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of hours that the employee worked. An employee earns $7.00 an hour for the first 35 hours worked in a week and $10.50 for any hour over 35. Let y represent the amount earned for x hours. Therefore

y = 7×35 + 10.5(x - 35)

y = 245 + 10.5x - 367.5

One week's paycheck (before deduction) was for $308.00. This means that y = $308.00. Therefore,

308 =245 + 10.5x - 367.5

308 = 10.5x - 122.5

10.5x = 308 + 122.5 = 430.5

x = 430.5/10.5

x = 41

The base of a solid in the region bounded by the graphs of y = e-x y = 0, and x = 0, and x = 1. Cross sections of the solid perpendicular to the x-axis are semicircles. What is the volume, in cubic units, of the solid?
a) π /16 e^2
b) π /16 (1-1/e^2)
c) π/4(1-1/e^2)
d) π/16(e^2-1)

Answers

Answer:

b) π /16 (1-1/e^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following limits:

[tex]y =e^{-x} , y=0, x=0, x=1[/tex]

And we have semicircles perpendicular cross sections.

The area of interest is the enclosed on the picture attached.

So we are assuming that the diameter for any cross section on the region of interest have a diameter of [tex]D=e^{-x}[/tex]

And then we can find the volume of a semicircular cross section with the following formula:

[tex]V= \frac{1}{2}\pi (\frac{e^{-x}}{2})^2 dx= \frac{1}{8} \pi e^{-2x}[/tex]

And for th volum we can integrate respect to x and the limits for x are from 0 to 1, so then the volume would be given by this:

[tex]V= \pi \int_0^{1} \frac{1}{8} \pi e^{-2x} dx[/tex]

[tex] V= -\frac{\pi}{16} e^{-2x} \Big|_0^1 [/tex]

And evaluating the integral using the fundamental theorem of calculus we got:

[tex]V = -\frac{\pi}{16} (e^{-2} -1)= \frac{\pi}{16}(e^{-2} -1)=\frac{\pi}{16} (1-\frac{1}{e^2})[/tex]

And then the best option would be:

b) π /16 (1-1/e^2)

If 2, 4, 6, and 9 are the digits of two 2-digit integers, what is the least possible positive difference between the integers? A28 B27

Answers

Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation: first we have to know what an integer, which is a single whole number without fractions or decimal numbers e.g. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

So now we are to find the least possible positive difference between two digit integers with combination of 2,4,6,9

So first, since it has to be the lowest difference, we have to look between these numbers for the lowest difference between the given integers, 6-4 = 2, 4-2 = 2, now the rest of the combination will give numbers higher that 2, e.g. 9-6 = 3, 6-2 = 4, 9-4 = 5, 9-2 = 7, so we can say our two digit integers can start with either 4 and 2, or 6 and 4, which is the tens in the two digit integers, so to get the least difference in this values, the units number of the bigger two digit integer will be smaller than the units number of the smaller two digit integers

So let's take the number 2, and 4

The bigger two digit integer will obviously start will 4, and since it's supposed to have the smaller units number, the two digit integer will be 46, and the second two digit integer will be 29, the finding the difference

We have 46-29=17

The taking the other combination of integer to give the smallest value, which was 2, (6 and 4) then giving the units number of the bigger integer which will be the smaller units number value (2), that two digit integer will be 62, and the other 49, finding the difference

62-49= 13

So therefore the least possible positive difference = 13
