      I have common test tmr, can help me with this challenging questions:


      1.Given that the HCF of 30,100 and x is 10 and x is not equal to 10, find 3 possible values of x less than 150.

      2. Given that the LCM of 5,14 and y is 140, find 3 possible of y.

      3.Find the smallest positive integer n for which perfect cube 2750n is a whole number.

      4. Rashid had sweets of 3 different flavours. There were 99 strawberry flavoured, 42 orange flavoured and 141 lemon flavoured sweets. He packed an equal number of each flavour into small packet but 1 strawberry and 1 lemon flavoured sweets were left out.

        [quote="Michaelia0816"]I have common test tmr, can help me with this challenging questions:


        1.Given that the HCF of 30,100 and x is 10 and x is not equal to 10, find 3 possible values of x less than 150.

        2. Given that the LCM of 5,14 and y is 140, find 3 possible of y.


        1)

        HCF = 10 =25

        30 = 2
        35

        100 = 2²
        5²

        X must include 25 and other prime numbers 2,3,5,7,11,13

        Possible values of x less than 150 are 20 , 40 , 50 , 60 , 70 , 80 , 90 , 110 , 120 , 130 , 140


        2)

        LCM = 140 = 2²
        57

        5

        14 = 2
        7

        y must include 2² and prime numbers 5 , 7 and 5*7

        Possible values of y = 4 , 20 , 28 , 140

              3)

              2750 = 2*5^3*11

              To be perfect cube , the index of the prime no must be multiple of 3

              n = 2^2*11^2 = 484

                      Hi, your answer for (i) and (ii) should exchange.

                      The HCF will give you the max number of packets for both cases.

                      a) i) max no of packets = 2 x 7 = 14
                      ii) no sweets in each small packet = 7 + 3 + 10 = 20
                      b) i) max no of packets 3
                      ii) no sweets in each small packet = 3 x 11 + 2 x 7 + 47 = 94[/quote]Hi ,

                      You are right . Thanks for pointing out the error.

                        pls help me 😧


                        The function f is defined by f(x)=1-2x.
                        (a) Find the range of f corresponding to the domain -1≤x<3
                        (b) Find the domain of f corresponding to the range 0≤f(x)<5

                        thanks 🙂
