Answer:

7 groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Isaac has 21 green marbles and 7 blue marbles. He wants to place them in identical groups without any marbles left over.

To find the greatest number of groups Issac can make we will find the GCF of 7 and 21.

Factors of 7 are: 1, 7.

Factors of 21 are: 1, 7, 3, 21.

We can see that 7 is the greatest common factor of 7 and 21, therefore, Issac can make 7 groups from 21 green marbles and 7 blue marbles.

Let us find number of each type of marble is each group.

\text{Number of green marbles in each group}=\frac{21}{7}

\text{Number of green marbles in each group}=3

Therefore, there will be 3 green marbles in each group.

\text{Number of blue marbles in each group}=\frac{7}{7}

\text{Number of blue marbles in each group}=1

Therefore, there will be 1 blue marble in each group.

Itll be 3 groups because 21/7=3

Classify the following as a fraction, expression, equation, or inequality b - 7 < 17
insens350 [35]

D. Inequality

An expression would just contain simple arithmetic without any symbols relating two things to another.

An equation must contain an equals sign.

A fraction will have a bar representing division.

An inequality contains a sign representing a comparison of magnitude, in this question less than <.

Hope this helps!!

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

x=4\\\\y=6\\\\IK=47

Step-by-step explanation:

Two Tangent Theorem: Tangents which meet at same point are equal in length.

Here tangents at J and H meet at I.

Hence\ HI=IJ\\\\y^2-10=4y+2\\\\y^2-4y-12=0\\\\y^2-6y+2y-12=0\\\\y(y-6)+2(y-6)=0\\\\(y-6)(y+2)\\\\y\ can\ not\ be\ negative\ as\ in\ that\ case\ IJ\ will\ be\ negative.\\\\Hence\ y=6\\\\IJ=4y+2=4\times 6+2=26\\\\\\\\Tangents\ at\ J\ and\ L\ meet\ at\ K.\ Use\ two\ tangent\ theorem.\\\\JK=KL\\\\5x+1=6x-3\\\\6x-5x=1+3\\\\x=4\\\\JK=5x+1=5\times 4+1=21\\\\\\IK=IJ+JK=26+21\\\\IK=47

Which number, when rounded to the nearest tenth, is 43.6? Options: A: 43.55 B: 43.657 C: 43.65 D: 43.549
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

A: 43.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Place value can be defined as the numerical value representing a digit owing to its position in a number. Some examples of the various place values used in representing each digit are tenths, hundredths, thousandths, unit, tens, hundreds, thousands etc.

For example, in the number 43.55;

  • The place value of 4 is tens.
  • The place value of 3 is units.
  • The place value of 5 is tenths.
  • The place value of 5 is hundredths.

Rounding up to the nearest tenth simply means to have 1 significant figure after the decimal point.

Therefore, 43.55 to the nearest tenth is 43.6
