Question

What are some Ways to make 1000. out of 11 and 7?

Answer 1

82 x 11 + 11 x 54

Answer 2

do you mean with the sum of multiples of 11 and multiples of 7?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

You mean, by multiplication or addition?
Well, I have got an idea.
11x+7y=1000
This is a straight line equation. Plot it in a graph. See if any integer coordinates lie on the line. If you find such a point, that is a solution for (x.y)
Do you get my idea?

Answer 5

i also think he means integer x and y's because there was a similar problem earlier...

Answer 6

No guys I think he means something like( 89 x 11)+(3 x 7)

Answer 7

What he said^

Answer 8

Yes, (89,3) is a solution to the equation I posted above.

Answer 9

Just plot it. By inspection, you could find it. Keep putting y=1,y=2 etc and see if an integral value of x results. You will get so if you put y=3

Answer 10

im in 8th grade. can you please tell me something that makes sense??

Answer 11

so we are talking about an equation that looks like x7 + y11 = 1000 aren't we?

Answer 12

yes. but i have no idea what the variables could be

Answer 13

If you start with x = 0 you are left with y11 = 1000 divide by 11 on each side
y = 1000/11

Answer 14

Then just any number that you pick for x is your x subtract your x*7 from 1000 and then solve for your next y

Answer 15

so x=2 gives you (2)(7) +y11 = 1000
= 14 + y11 = 1000
= y11 = 986
y=986/11

Answer 16

yo can you use 8th grade vocabulary
