Mr. Scott likes to pose interesting problems to his Mathematics classes. Today, he started with the expression 6^2020 + 7^2020. He stated that the expression was
not equivalent to 13^2020 and that he was not interested in the actual sum. His
question to his class and to you is, “What are the final two digits of the sum?

The last two digits of 6²⁰²⁰ + 7²⁰²⁰ is 7, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is to find the value of the sum of two numbers 6²⁰²⁰ + 7²⁰²⁰, where,  6²⁰²⁰ + 7²⁰²⁰ ≠ 13²⁰²⁰

We have;

The last two digits of the powers of 6 are;

6¹ = 6, last two digits = 06

6² = 36, last two digits = 36

6³ = 216, last two digits = 16

6⁴ = 1,296, last two digits = 96

6⁵ = 7,776, last two digits = 76

6⁶ = 46,456, last two digits = 56

6⁷ = 279,936, last two digits = 36

6⁸ = 1,679,616, last two digits = 16

6⁹ = 10,077,696, last two digits = 96

6¹⁰ = 60,466,176, last two digits = 76

6¹¹ = 362,767,056, last two digits = 56

Therefore, the last two digits repeat itself every 5 times

For 6²⁰²⁰, the last two digits will be for the 2020/5 = 404 complete times, which will be 76

The last two digits of the powers of 7 are;

7¹ = 7, last two digits = 07

7² = 49, last two digits = 49

7³ = 343, last two digits = 43

7⁴ = 2,401, last two digits = 01

7⁵ = 16,807, last two digits = 07

7⁶ = 117,649, last two digits = 49

7⁷ = 823,543, last two digits = 43

7⁸ = 5,764,801, last two digits = 01

Therefore, the last two digits repeat itself every 4 times

For 7²⁰²⁰, the last two digits will be for the 2020/4 = 505 complete times, which will be 01

Therefore, the last two digits of 6²⁰²⁰ + 7²⁰²⁰ is 76 + 01 = 77, which is 7, 7

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given a graph for system of inequalities.

in order to write the system of inequalities for the given graph, we need to find the inequality for each of the line separately.

let us find the slope of dotted line first.

taking two coordinates on the graph.

let us say (0,0) and (3,1).

let us find the slope of the line now.

slope of the dotted line would be =.

y-intercept of dotted line is y=0 only.

plugging slope m= and b=0 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

.

the line is shaded up of that dotted line.

therefore, for shading up we would take greater than inequality symbol > .

and because it's a dotted line we would take only > symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for dotted line would be

let us take two points (3,1) and (0,4) on the solid line.

slope of the solid line would be =.

for the solid line we have y-intercept b= 4.

plugging slope m= -1 and b=4 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

y = -1x + 4.

the line is shaded down of that solid line.

therefore, for shading down we would take less than inequality symbol < .

and because it's a solid line we would take ≤ symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for solid line would be
