Algebra.Com's Answer #714636 by greenestamps(13198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! \n" ); document.write( "(1)-if 41x is a multiple of 11,where x is a digit what is the value of x \n" ); document.write( "If 41x is a multiple of 11, then x must be a multiple of 11, because 41 is not a multiple of 11. But there is no digit that is a multiple of 11; unless you allow the trivial case of x=0. \n" ); document.write( "(2)-if 3y5 is a multiple of 11,where y is a digit what is the value of y \n" ); document.write( "I assume this is supposed to be 3y^5. In that case the answer is the same as for the first problem. 3 is not a multiple of 11, so y^5 must be a multiple of 11, which means y must be a multiple of 11. Again the only digit for which this is true is the trivial case of y=0. \n" ); document.write( "(3)-if 41z2 is a multiple of 6,where z is a digit what is the value of z \n" ); document.write( "This time there is a solution, assuming the expression is supposed to be 41z^2. 41 is not a multiple of 6; but 6 is. So for this one the answer is z=6. \n" ); document.write( " |
