Answer:

Sheldon should buy 5 packages to Bridget's Bakery and 3 to Penny's Pastries.

Explanation:

In order to buy the same amount of cupcakes from both stores, Sheldon should buy 5 packages to Bridget's Bakery and 3 to Penny's Pastries. To calculate this, Sheldon should calculate the least common multiple between 6 and 10, which is the number of cupcakes that each package has. The lest common multiple is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both numbers (in this case, 6 and 10). To find the least common multiple Sheldon should calculate the prime factorization of 6 and 10, that is to say, which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.

6= 2x3

10=2x5

After that, Sheldon should multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs, in this case:

2x3x5= 30

That means he needs to buy <u>30 cupcakes from each store</u>. 30 divided by 6 is 5, and 30 divided by ten is 3. Those are the numbers of packages he needs.

Individual states gave very little resistance to the federal government's efforts to improve roads. True or False
lyudmila [28]

The building and the maintenance of roads is the responsibility of the government. The Federal government has always played an important part in making sure that major highways and bridges are in good shape since they're vital to the growth and the development of the country.

An example is the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 whereby there was a construction of interstate highway of about 41,000 miles whereby majority of they cost was borne by the Federal government. This helped improve the transportation network in the country and was vital for socio economic development.

In conclusion, the individual states gave very little resistance to the federal government's efforts to improve roads as it had a positive impact on the economy.

In conclusion, the correct option is true.

Which term best described the spread of Judaism beyond southwest Asia
mylen [45]
I believe you are looking to an answer to a question from Connections Academy. If you are, then your answer would be this term: the Diaspora. However, Judaism is not a missionary religion. That means that, although you could convert, converts are not actively sought. Therefore the spread of Judaism may be slower than the spread of other religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, or Islam.
