<span>To make identical first aid bags and maximize the amount, you first have to take the item that you have the least amount of and make that your base amount of bags with one item per bag. Doing that for the nurse gives 36 bags with 1 packet of ointment per bag and 0 left over. Next, you know that you have 72 antiseptic wipes which is double the amount of ointment, so you would put 2 antiseptic wipes in each bag and have 0 left over. Finally, since 55 bandages is not double 35, you would put one bandage in each bag and have 19 bandages left over. In summary, there would be 36 bags, with each having 2 antiseptic wipes, 1 adhesive bandage, and one packet of ointment. There would be 19 adhesive bandages leftover.</span>

Can you help me on this one
Annette [7]

Answer: B. Line AC is congruent to line BD

Step-by-step explanation:

The Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem states that two right triangles are congruent if and only if the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of the other right triangle.

Since they both share Leg DC, their hypotenuse should be congruent to use this proof.

The slope for 5 and 2
Yuri [45]

\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨

As we know, slope (m) is equal to tan θ for a straight line :

\qquad \tt\dashrightarrow \: m = \tan( \theta)

\qquad \tt\dashrightarrow \: m =  \dfrac{5}{2}

So, we can say that it's a positive constant slope

Answer:

1) x < 1, x > 9

2) 2 < x ≤ 6, -4 ≤ x < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1) lx - 5l > 4

x - 5 = 4

x = 9

-(x - 5) = 4

x = -4 + 5 = 1

x < 1, x > 9

3) 1 < lx-1l ≤ 5

1 < x-1 ≤ 5

2 < x ≤ 6

1 < -(x-1) ≤ 5

-5 ≤ x-1 < -1

-4 ≤ x < 0
