The greatest number of fruit baskets they can make is 2 with each one having 44 peaches, 30 bananas and 27 kiwis

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Jim’s fruit basket has 88 peaches, 60 bananas and 54 Kiwis to  use.

If each basket have same number of each type, we have to determine the greatest number of fruit baskets they can make  

We need to find greatest common factor of 88, 60 and 54

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.

<em><u>Greatest common factor of 88, 60 and 54:</u></em>

The factors of 54 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54

The factors of 60 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60

The factors of 88 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88

Then the greatest common factor is 2

On dividing the number of fruits by 2 we get

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Apples in each basket }=\frac{88}{2}=44} \\\\ {\text { Bananas in each basket }=\frac{60}{2}=30} \\\\ {\text { Kiwis in each basket }=\frac{54}{2}=27}\end{array}

Hence, there can be 2 basket with each one having 44 peaches, 30 bananas and 27 kiwis

Plzzzz help! i will give brainliest 100 points! Let f(x) = 8x3 + 16x2 − 15 and g(x) = 2x + 1. Find f of x over g of x. A. 4 time
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

C. 4 times x squared plus 6 times x minus 3 minus 12 over the quantity 2 times x plus 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 8x^3 + 16x^2 − 15

g(x) = 2x + 1.

f(x) / g(x) = (8x^3 + 16x^2 − 15) / (2x + 1)

75 POINTS!!!
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

1. 0-9

2. 0-6

3. 0-6

Step-by-step explanation:

This scenario can be simulated by generating a set of three numbers using a number generator with numbers 0-9. The numbers 0-6 would represent couples who prefer indoor weddings. If all three numbers in the set are in the range 0-6, it would mean that all three couples prefer indoor weddings.

(ik you might not need this anymore, but I'm hoping it proves useful to others)

If instead of randomly selecting two people there were five, what is the probability that all five are right-handed
lozanna [386]

Answer:

1/32

Step-by-step explanation:

We can break this question down. If we had 1 person and they are right-handed, the probability is 1/2 because they are either left-handed or right-handed. Knowing that, we can multiply the probability of having 1 person being right-handed 5 times because there are 5 people in the question.

1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/(2⁵) = 1/32

Therefore, the probability of randomly selecting 5 people who are right-handed is 1/32.

I hope this helps and please mark me as brainliest!

“Write an equation in standard form of the horizontal line that goes through (-7, 10)”
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A horizontal line is only concerned with the y value. The equation is y = 10 because that is the point that the line must go through.

The x value does not matter as long as the y value is given as 10. The domain is any real value. The range is 10
