Answer:

The least number of coins that could have been stolen is 3,930.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the beginning, there are N coins to be distributed among 17 pirates, and we know that if we divide evenly these coins, there are 3 coins remaining.

Then we can write the total number of coins as a multiple of 17 plus 3.

N = 17*k + 3

where k is an integer.

After that, a pirate is killed, so now we have 16 pirates, and now there are 10 coins left, so now we can write N as a multiple of 16 plus 10:

N = 16*j + 10

where j is an integer.

Finally, having 15 pirates, the total number of coins can be divided evenly, then N is a multiple of 15

N = 15*m

where m is an integer.

So we have these 3 equations:

N = 17*k + 3

N = 16*j + 10

N = 15*m

So we can express equations like:

15*m = 16*j + 10

15*m = 17*k + 3

Where we need to find solutions such that both of these variables are integers.

For the first one we can write:

15*m - 16*j = 10

One way to do it, is to write this like a linear equation:

m = (16*j + 10)/15

Graph this, and find the pairs of points in the line that have bot integer values, or we can just find some values of j such that:

16*j + 10 is a multiple of 15.

For example, with j = 5 we have:

m = (16*5 + 10)/15 = 6

so j = 5 and m = 6 is a possible solution.

Now if we use m = 6 in the other equation:

15*m = 17*k + 3

we can see if k is also an integer:

k = (15*m - 3)/17

replacing m by 6:

k = (15*6 - 3)/17 = 5.1

This solution does not work.

Let's find others:

if j = 20  (at this point we already know that the possible values of j "jump" by 15 units, like 5 + 15 = 20) then:

m = (16*20 + 10)/15 = 22

Then:

j = 20 and  m = 22 is another solution.

Same as before, let's use m = 22 in the equation for k:

k = (15*22 - 3)/17 = 19.2

Let's find another solution for m.

if  j = 35

m = (16*35 + 10)/15 = 38

Using this value of m in the k equation we get:

k = (15*35 - 3)/17 = 33.4

Let's find another solution for m.

if we take j = 50 we get:

m = (15*50 + 10)/15 = 54

Using this in the k equation we get:

k = (15*54 - 3)/17 = 47.5

Eventually, for j = 5  + 15*16 = 245 we get:  (arrived by iteration, just try each time using the previous value of j plus 15)

m = (16*245 + 10)/15 = 262

replacing this in the k equation we can find:

k = (15*262 - 3)/17 = 231.

So the first solution is:

j = 245, m = 262, k = 231

Then:

N = 262*15 = 3,930

The least number of coins that could have been stolen is 3,930.

Answer:

£59.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of units in meter readings will be 289. Then the cost of the gas will be £59.02.

A connection between a number of variables results in a linear model when a graph is displayed. The variable will have a degree of one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

Let 'x' be the number of units and 'y' be the total cost. Then the equation is given as,

y = 0.13x + 21.45

The number of units is calculated as,

x = 6785 - 6496

x = 289

The cost of the gas will be given as,

y = 0.13(289) + 21.45

y = 37.57 + 21.45

y = £59.02

The number of units in meter readings will be 289. Then the cost of the gas will be £59.02.

Problem 5)

Assuming HEFG is a parallelogram, this means the opposite sides are the same length.

EH = GF

x-3 = 4x-15

x-4x = -15+3

-3x = -12

x = -12/(-3)

x = 4

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

Problem 6)

We'll use the same idea from problem 5. The opposite sides EF and HG are congruent

EF = HG

3y = 3x+12

3y = 3*4+12

3y = 24

y = 24/3

y = 8

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

Problem 7)

For any parallelogram, the diagonals always cut each other in half.

Therefore HK = 2z+3 is exactly half that of segment HF = 22

Put another way, HF is twice as long as HK

2*(HK) = HF

2*(2z+3) = 22

4z+6 = 22

4z = 22-6

4z = 16

z = 16/4

z = 4

Answer:

The answer is (7,-19)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, 18 is x, and -10 is y. The rule says to subtract 11 from 18, which would be 7. For y, you add -9 to -10, which would be -19.

Therefore, your answer should be (7,-19)

Hope this helps!

By applying the rule and image after the translation as an ordered pair with no spaces is the point (7, -19).

Translation is a term used in geometry to describe a function that moves an object a certain distance. The object is not altered in any other way.

Given point = (18, -10)

(x, y) --> (x - 11, y - 9)

(18, -10) = (18 - 11, -10 - 9)

New point = (7, -19)

Hence, by applying the rule and image after the translation as an ordered pair with no spaces is the point (7, -19).
