Answer:  6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The marine-life store would like to set up fish tanks that contain equal numbers of angel fish, swordtails, and guppies.

The store has 12 angel fish, 24 swordfish, and 30 guppies.

Then, the greatest number of tanks that can be set up will be the greatest common factor of 12, 24 and 30.

Prime factorization of 12, 24 and 30 :

12=2\times2\times3\\\\24=2\times2\times2\times3\\\\30=2\times3\times5

Then, Greatest common factor of 12, 24 and 30=2\times3=6

Hence, the greatest number of tanks that can be set up will be 6.

U(8, 9) and V(2, 5) are the endpoints of a line segment. What is the midpoint M of that line segment?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

(5, 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 points (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

[ 0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

here (x₁, y₁ ) = U(8, 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = V(2, 5), thus

midpoint = [0.5(8 + 2), 0.5(9 + 5) ] = [0.5(10), 0.5(14) ] = (5, 7 )

write the equation of the line using the given information. type your awnser in slope intercept form,y=mx+b​
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

y=3/-1x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so first thing you need to know is that if there is an ordered pair (x, y) where x is 0, your y-intercept is your y. For example, your problem has (0, 4) your x is 0 and your y is 4. Therefore your y-intercept is 4 which is the b. To find your mx, or slope, you need to do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Your y2 will be your y in your second ordered pair and your y1 will be in your y in the first ordered pair. Same for your x. So, (4-1)/(0-1) which equals 3/-1. 3/-1 is your slope. So, your answer in slop intercept form is: y= 3/-1x+4. You could also try y= -3x+4 if that makes you more comfortable.

I know this is long this is my first time doing this lol.

How to do question 5 and 6. Can you explain the first one which is A for 5 and 6?<br><br>Thank you​
Illusion [34]

for 6

in a

given

slope(m)=1

point=(2,-4)=(x1,y1)

we know

equation of straight line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+4=1(x-2)

y+4=x-2

therefore x-y-6=0 is the required equation

substituting with ax+by+c=0 we get

a=1

b= -1

c= -6

The electric heaters, in a 240 volt electric furnace, draw 40 amps of current. What is the total KW rating of the heaters?
expeople1 [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  9.6 kW

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of volts and amps is watts. Here, that product is ...

  (240 V)(40 A) = 9600 W

1000 W is 1 kW, so this quantity is 9.6 kW

__

This tells the power consumption. The "rating" may be different.
