Sarah's Shipping and Ryan's Mail Services both ship packages. Sarah's trucks will only carry loads of 18 packages. In contrast,

Ryan's trucks will only carry loads of 11 packages. If both businesses end up shipping the same number of packages this morning, what is the minimum number of packages each must have shipped?

Answer:

The minimum number of packages each must have shipped is 198.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah's trucks will only carry loads of 18 packages.

Ryan's trucks will only carry loads of 11 packages.

To find the minimum number of packages each must have shipped, we will find the LCM.

18 = 2 x 3 x 3

11 = 11 x 1

LCM = 18 x 11 = 198

Hence, the minimum number of packages each must have shipped is 198.

Answer:

1 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2/8 * 7

2/8 will simplify

Divide the top and bottom by 2

12/8 = 1/4

1/4*7

7/4

We need to change this from an improper fraction to a mixed number

4 goes into 7  once with 3 left over

The length of a side of a triangle is 36. A line parallel to that side divides the triangle into two parts of equal area. Find t
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Length of BE is \frac{36}{\sqrt2}units

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a side of a triangle is 36. A line parallel to that side divides the triangle into two parts of equal area. we have to find the length of the segment determined by the points of intersection between the line and the other two sides of the triangle.

Now, the two parts of triangle have equal area ∴ ar(ADE)=ar(BDEC)

⇒ ar(ADE)=\frac{1}{2}ar(ABC)

⇒ \frac{ar(ADE)}{ar(ABC)}=\frac{1}{2}

In ΔABE and ΔABC,

∠A=∠A     (Common)

∠ABE=∠ABC   (Corresponding angles)

By AA similarity, ΔABE is similar to ΔABC.

Hence by area side proportionality theorem

\frac{ar(ADE)}{ar(ABC)}=(\frac{BE}{BC})^2

⇒ \frac{1}{2}=\frac{BE^2}{36^2}

⇒ BE^2=\frac{36^2}{2}

⇒ BE=\frac{36}{\sqrt2}units

Hence, length of BE is \frac{36}{\sqrt2}units

Find the magnitude and direction of the vector. Round the length to the nearest tenth and the degree to the nearest unit. Diagra
astra-53 [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The vector has a magnitude of a and a direction of θ degrees south of west. 

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate a.
a² = (-530)² + (-200)² = 320900
a = √(320900) = 566.48 mi ≈ 566.5 mi

By definition,
tan θ = (-200)/(-530) = 0.3774
θ = tan⁻¹ 0.3774 = 20.68° ≈ 21°

Answer: about 566.5 mi; 21° south of west.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

63.6m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is 4.5m because it's half of the diameter.

Area = πr²

Area = π(4.5)² = 63.6m²
