L is not as tall as P or R but is taller than S and Q Q being shorter than R S is shorter than R who is shorter than P who is taller than Q Who among P Q R and S is the shortest?
The answer is Q.
Greatest prime number that can be represented as both the sum of 2 prime numbers as well as difference of 2 prime numbers?
We will use the fact that if p prime, a divides p, then a = p or a = 1. Then if p + q = r, for primes p, q, r, then one of p,q,r is even, or all three are (consider mod 2). p = q = r = 2 clearly doesn't work, and p + q = 2 doesn't work for primes p,q >= 3. So without loss of generality p = 2, then r = q+2. r is also the difference of two primes, r = s - t. Again considering mod 2, knowing that r is odd, one of s or t is even (and so equal to 2). If s = 2 then r is negative, so t = 2, and we have q + 2 = r = t - 2, so t = q + 4. So we have q, r = q + 2 and t = q + 4 all prime. By considering q mod 3, one of them has a factor 3. If a prime has a factor 3, it is equal to 3. So q = 3, as q + 2 = 3 or q + 4 = 3 mean q is not prime. So, r = q + 2 = 5. Therefore, 5 is the only prime that can be represented as both the sum of two primes and the difference of two primes: 5 = 2 + 3 = 7 - 2. Since it is the only one, it is the greatest.
If p q and q r then p r.?
Unfortunately, the browser used for posting questions is hopelessly inadequate for mathematics: it strips away most symbols. All that we can see is "If p q and q r then p r.?". There is no operator between the variables. Some operators are transitive, others are not. In the case of the operator "is not equal to", the answer is that it depends. In the case of "is the parent of" the answer is no.
How to find the chord length of a curve with radius and 2 bearings given?
Suppose the radius is r and the bearings of the two points, P and Q are p and q respectively. Then the coordinates of P are [r*cos(p), r*sin(p)] and the coordinates of Q are [r*cos(q), r*sin(q)]. The distance between these two points can be found, using Pythagoras: d2 = (xq - xp)2 + (yq - yp)2 where xp is the x-coordinate of P, etc.
What is the Analogy for d is B as r is to p or T or q or P?
P
If p q and q r then p r. Converse statement B.A syllogism C.Contrapositive statement D.Inverse statement?
Converse: If p r then p q and q rContrapositive: If not p r then not (p q and q r) = If not p r then not p q or not q r Inverse: If not p q and q r then not p r = If not p q or not q r then not p r
If p q and q r what is the relationship between the values p and r?
Ifp < q and q < r, what is the relationship between the values p and r? ________________p
How do you add and subtract rational numbers?
A rational number is a number of the form p/q where p and q are integers and q > 0.If p/q and r/s are two rational numbers thenp/q + r/s = (p*s + q*r) / (q*r)andp/q - r/s = (p*s - q*r) / (q*r)The answers may need simplification.
P varies directly as q and inversely as r?
P=q/r* * * * *The correct answer is P = k*q/r where k is the constant of proportionality.
How do you add similar proper fraction?
Two fractions are similar if they have the same denominator.So if p/r and q/r are two such fractions, then p/r + q/r = (p+q)/r.
P and q represents r p q?
tan x
L is not as tall as P or R but is taller than S and Q Q being shorter than R S is shorter than R who is shorter than P who is taller than Q Who among P Q R and S is the shortest?
The answer is Q.
What are the rules for multiplying rational numbers?
p/q * r/s = (p*r)/(q*s)
Prove that if a and b are rational numbers then a multiplied by b is a rational number?
If a is rational then there exist integers p and q such that a = p/q where q>0. Similarly, b = r/s for some integers r and s (s>0) Then a*b = p/q * r/s = (p*r)/(q*s) Now, since p, q r and s are integers, p*r and q*s are integers. Also, q and s > 0 means that q*s > 0 Thus a*b can be expressed as x/y where p and r are integers implies that x = p*r is an integer q and s are positive integers implies that y = q*s is a positive integer. That is, a*b is rational.
Which term best describes the statement given If p q and q r then p r below?
a syllogism
What is the answer to add q and p triple the result then divide r by s?
It is 3*(q + p)/(r + s)
What do you do while multiplying rational numbers?
A rational number is a number which can be expressed in the form p/q where p and q are integers and p>0.If p/q and r/s are two rational numbers then(p/q)*(r/s) = (p*r)/(q*s).You may need to check that this fraction is in its lowest (simplest) form.
