Barnes and noble needs to ship 14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books. The store can only pack one genre of book in each box, and they must pack the same number of books in each box. What is the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books needs to b shipped.

If they want to pack one genre of book in each box such that they pack same number of books in each box.

Then, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box

= GCD(14,12,8)

Since, 14 = 2 x 7

12 = 2 x 2 x 3

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

GCD(14,12,8)=2

Hence, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box = 2

x2 + 45x = -200 Using the quadratic formual and the discirimnat

Answers

Answer:

Positive discriminant = 2 real solution

x= -5,-40

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is used to see how many solutions an equation has. If it is negative, the equation has no real solutions, if =0 the equation has 1, and if it is positive, the equation has two real solutions.

The discriminant is the part of the quadratic formula inside the square root:

[tex]b^{2}-4ac[/tex]

Every quadratic formula has the structure:

[tex]ax^{2} +bx+c=0[/tex]

So first, in order to meet this structure we need to add 200 to both sides so the equation is equal to 0. This gives us:

[tex]x^{2} +45x+200=0[/tex]

Our a=1, b=45 and c=200

Now we can substitute these values into the discriminant:

[tex](45)^{2} -4(1)(200)[/tex]

Solve:

[tex]2025-800=1225[/tex]

The discriminant is a positive number which means this equation will have 2 real solution. Now we just need to plug in our values into the quadratic formula to solve this equation. Quadratic formula:

[tex]x=\frac{-+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} \\x=\frac{-45+/-\sqrt{1225} }{2}[/tex]

(Same discriminant value)

[tex]x=\frac{-45+/-35}{2}[/tex]

Now to find the two solutions, we use both signs in the equation. Solution 1:

[tex]x=\frac{-45+35}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-10}{2}=-5[/tex]

Our first solution is -5, now for the second:

[tex]x=\frac{-45-35}{2}\\\\ x=\frac{-80}{2}=-40[/tex]

The two solution to this equation are -5 and -40.

Hope this helped!

y = -5x– 1
y = -5x + 7

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -5x– 1

y = -5x + 7

Since they are both equal to y, we can set them equal to each other

-5x-1 = -5x+7

Add 5x to each side

-5x-1+5x= -5x+7+5x

-1 = 7

This is not true so there is no solution

The lines are parallel with different y intercepts

The answer is “There is on solution “:)

Answer:

okay well all i can explain is the image on the far left, the answer would be x=112 and then for the one on the far right (im not sure ) i think its 17

explanation: so a straight line had 180 degress and the outside angle is 126 meaning that if you do 180-126 you can find the amount of the inside angle on the bottom right. When you do this you get 54 degress. Then remember that a triangle has a total of 180 degrees all added up so the final angle inside the triagle is 80 minus the sum of the other two angles. 58+54=112 and 180-112=68. remember that 68 is the angle on the INSIDE and x is clearly on the outside meaning that you would need to do 180-68. your final answer would be 112.

Anand needs to hire a plumber. He's considering a plumber that charges an initial fee of \$65$65dollar sign, 65 along with an hourly rate of \$28$28dollar sign, 28. The plumber only charges for a whole number of hours. Anand would like to spend no more than \$250$250dollar sign, 250, and he wonders how many hours of work he can afford. Let HHH represent the whole number of hours that the plumber works.

Answers

Answer:

Anand can afford is 6hours

Step-by-step explanation:

 Let H represent the whole number of hours that the plumber works.

given that the fixed cost is $65

and the hourly cost is $28

also given that Anand has a total of $250 with him

the total cost can be expressed in terms of the number of hours H as

250=65+28H

we can now solve for H

250-65=28H

185=28H

divide both sides by 28

H=185/28

H=6.60714285714

"The plumber only charges for a whole number of hours."

So the number of hours Anand can afford is 6hours

A jet ski company charges a flat fee of $22.00 plus $3.00 per hour to rent a jet ski. Another company charges a fee of $17.50 plus $3.75 per hour to rent the same jet ski. Write a system of equations that can be used to determine when the cost will be the same, then solve your system.

Answers

Answer: The cost will be same for 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A jet ski company charges a flat fee of $22.00 plus $3.00 per hour to rent a jet ski.

Another company charges a fee of $17.50 plus $3.75 per hour to rent the same jet ski.

Let x = Number of hours

y = Total cost

Then, Total cost (in $) for first company (y) = 22+3x

Total cost (in $) for second company (y) = 17.50+3.75x

So required system of equations :

y =  22+3x

y= 17.50+3.75x

When the cost will be the same,

22+3x = 17.50+3.75x

⇒ 3x - 3.75x = 17.50- 22

⇒ - 0.75x = -4.5

⇒ x =6  [Divide both sides by -0.75]

Hence,  the cost will be same for 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Melanie had 3 pounds of dried fruit and that she packed the dried fruit into bags of 3/8 pound each.

For us to get the number of bags of dry fruit does she will pack, we have to divide 3 pounds by 3/8 pounds. This will be:

= 3 ÷ (3/8)

= 3 × (8/3)

= 8

A triangle is a three-sided polygon, which has three vertices. The three sides are connected with each other end to end at a point, which forms the angles of the triangle. The sum of all three angles of the triangle is equal to 180 degrees.

Given,

In the figure, interior angles of triangle measures =

62°, right angle = 90°, x

Sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180°

⇒ 62° + 90° + x = 180°

⇒ 152° + x = 180°

⇒ x = 180° - 152°

⇒ x = 28°

Hence, 28° is the measure of angle x.

Workers have been down the street installing two blinking red lights in front of the fire station. The two lights are always turned on at the same time. Both lights blink as they are turned on. One lights blinks after every 8 seconds. The other light blinks every 22 seconds. After how many seconds will they blink together again?

Answers

Answer:

After 88 seconds, they will blink together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time after which the first light blinks = 8 seconds

Time after which the second light blinks = 22 seconds

Initially, both the lights blink together.

To find:

The time at which they will blink together again.

Solution:

Let us have a look at the time after which each light will blink.

First light will blink after:

8 s, 16 s, 24 s, 32 s, 40 s, 48 s, 56 s, 64 s, 72 s, 80 s, 88 s, 96 s, 104 s, ......

Second light will blink after:

22 s, 44 s, 66 s, 88 s, 110 s, .....

It can be seen that common time is 88 second, at which the both will blink together.

So, the answer is 88 s.

This answer can also be computed by taking the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of both the numbers i.e. 8 and 22.

Using the factorization method:

[tex]8=\underline{2}\times 2\times 2[/tex]

[tex]22=\underline{2}\times 11[/tex]

Common is 2.

Therefore the LCM will be:

[tex]2\times 2\times2\times 11 = \bold{88}[/tex]

So, the answer is 88 s.
