Some friends of yours collected books for a book drive. They collected 64 Fiction, and 48 Non-Fiction books. They asked you to m

ake bundles of books so that all the books get sent to families who want them and all of the bundles have the same content inside. How many bundles of books can your team send? How many fiction books will you need to put in each bundle? How many non-fiction books will you need to put in each bundle?

As all of the bundles have the same content inside, so assuming that there is x number of Fiction books and y number of Non-fiction books in each bundle.

Let n be the total number of bundles that my team can send.

There are 64 Fiction books, so

nx=64 ...(i)

Or x=64/n ...(ii)

also, there are 48 Non-Fiction books, so

ny=48 ...(iii)

Or y=48/n ...(iv)

Observing that the numbers x, y, and n are counting numbers and from equations (i) and (iii), n is the common factor of 64 and 48.

The possible common factors of 64 and 48 are,

n=1,2,4,8, and 16.

So, my team can send 1,2,3,4,8 or 16 bundles of books.

Now, from equations (ii) and (iv),

For n=1:

x=64/1=64

y=48/1=48

So, for 1 bundle the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 64 and 48 respectively.

For n=2:

x=64/2=32

y=48/2=48

So, for 2 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 32 and 24 respectively.

For n=4:

x=64/4=16

y=48/4=12

So, for 4 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 16 and 12 respectively.

For n=8:

x=64/8=8

y=48/8=6

So, for 8 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 8 and 6 respectively.

For n=16:

x=64/16=4

y=48/16=3

So, for 16 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 4 and 3 respectively.

-8xc = 1 solve for x
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

[-8c]⁻¹ = x

Step-by-step explanation:

-8xc = 1

____ ___

-8c -8c

x =   - \frac{1}{8c}  \\  \\ or \\  \\ x = ({ -8c})^{-1}

This, according to the Negative Exponential Rule [Reverse], is how you write this as a rational exponent. You bring the denominator to the numerator while ALTERING THE INTEGER SYMBOL FROM POSITIVE TO NEGATIVE:

b⁻ⁿ = 1\bⁿ

200 σ j=1 2j( j 3) describe the steps to evaluate the summation. what is the sum?
ziro4ka [17]

The sum of the equation is  = 5494000.

<h3>What does summation mean in math?</h3>

The outcome of adding numbers or quantities mathematically is a summation, often known as a sum. A summation always has an even number of terms in it. There may be just two terms, or there may be 100, 1000, or even a million. Some summations include an infinite number of terms.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Distribute 2j to (j+3).

Rewrite the summation as the sum of two individual summations.

Evaluate each summation using properties or formulas from the lesson.

The lower index is 1, so any properties can be used.

The sum is 5,494,000.

<h3>Calculation according to the statement:</h3>

\sum_{j=1}^{200} 2 j(j+3)

simplifying them we get:

\sum_{j=1}^{200} 2 j^{2}+6 j

Split the summation into smaller summations that fit the summation rules.

\sum_{j=1}^{200} 2 j^{2}+6 j=2 \sum_{j=1}^{200} j^{2}+6 \sum_{j=1}^{200} j

\text { Evaluate } 2 \sum_{j=1}^{200} j^{2}

The formula for the summation of a polynomial with degree 2

is:

\sum_{k=1}^{n} k^{2}=\frac{n(n+1)(2 n+1)}{6}

Substitute the values into the formula and make sure to multiply by the front term.

(2)$$\left(\frac{200(200+1)(2 \cdot 200+1)}{6}\right)$$

we get: 5373400

Evaluating same as above : 6 \sum_{j=1}^{200} j

we get: 120600

Add the results of the summations.

5373400 + 120600

= 5494000

The sum of the equation is  = 5494000.
