A mother decides to teach her son about a letter each week. She will choose a letter from the name of the day. For example, on Saturday she might teach about the letter S or the letter U, but not the letter M.

1. What letters are possible to teach using this method? (There are 15.)
2.What 4 letters that can't be taught using this method?
3. On Tuesday, the mother writes the word on a piece of paper and cuts it up so each letter is on a separate piece of paper. She mixes up the papers and picks one. What is the probability that she will choose the with the letter Y? Explain.

could u provide us some answer choices or hmm idk maybe a table for us to anser with ? ?

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
