Answer:

1/2b - 5 (the third one)

Step-by-step explanation:

"Denni is five years less..."

this tells us we will need to be subtracting five, which knocks out the other answers.

"..one-half his brothers age."

since b represents the age of his brother, one half his brothers age is 1/2b

That leaves us with 1/2b - 5

Selma cannot remember her locker number! She knows that her locker number is prime, and that it is a factor of 435. What are all

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Possible locker numbers for Selma are: 3, 5 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have a look at the definition of a prime number.

A <em>prime number</em> is a number which is divisible either by 1 or the number itself.

No other number divides the prime number other than 1 and the number itself.

Now, let us factorize the given number 435 and let us observe the what all possibilities are there.

$435 = 3\times 145$

Factorizing 145 further:

$435 = 3\times 5\times 29$

No further factors are possible.

Therefore 3, 5 and 29 are the prime factors of 435.

So, the answer is:

Possible locker numbers for Selma are: 3, 5 and 29

Explain why any of the four operations (+x +) placed between the two terms 5 and-3/(radical sign) 8 will result in an irrational

kompoz [17]

To answer this question we will have to understand the nature of $\sqrt{8}$ .

$\sqrt{8}$ can be rewritten as: $\sqrt{2\times 2\times 2} =2\sqrt{2}$ . Now, $\sqrt{2}$ is an irrational number and thus any of the four operations of addition, multiplication, subtraction or division placed anywhere between any of these terms will always result in an irrational number.

The only way irrational numbers can be made rational is by dividing or multiplying the given irrational number by the same irrational number.

Julie wants to purchase a new home in six years. She thinks that she can purchase a nice home in a good neighborhood for $60,000

MrMuchimi

Answer:

$208.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Julie has to make the down payment which is 25% of $60000 after saving for 6 years.

Therefore, Julie has to save a total of $60000 \times \frac{25}{100} = 15000$ dollars.

And Julie has to save it for the duration of 6 years i.e. (6 × 12) = 72 months.

Hence, Julie has to save $\frac{15000}{72} = 208.33$ dollars every month to make the down payment after 6 years. (Answer)
