Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Criteria:
• same number of books on each shelf
⇒find a number that divides 58 and 145
• greatest number of books on each shelf
⇒find the greatest number that divides 58 and 145
Find the GCF of 58 and 145.
58 = 2 ⋅ 29
145 = 5 ⋅ 29The GCF of 58 and 145 is 29.
Each shelf will contain 29 books.
There are 203 total books (because 58 + 145 = 203).
Divide 203 by 29 to find the number of shelves there should be.
203 / 29 = 7
Therefore, there will be 7 shelves.
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+4 - 12 = 20
2x - 8 = 20
2x = 28
x = 14
What is the shape of the floor in the living room? And what are the measurements?
Answer:
7.9 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem: a²+b²=c²
This formula can be used to solve a side of any right (90°) triangle.
c² is the length of the hypotenuse (the diagonal side of the triangle, opposite to the 90° angle)
So, c = 32m.
Sides a and b are the legs of the triangle, but we only know one side. Plug numbers into the formula:
31² + b² = 32²
961 + b² = 1024 Subtract 961 from both sides to get b² by itself.
b² = 63
√b² = √63 Square root both sides to get b by itself.
b = 7.93725
Answer is 7.9 meters, rounded to tenths place
