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.

SOMEONE PLS HELP
Kryger [21]

Answer:

9.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle shown is 90 degrees we can deduce that the rest of the arc is 270 degrees therefore we can make the fraction:

270/360; 360 being the total angle measurement of a circle

270/360 simplifies to 3/4

The fraction represents how much of the circle that arc covers

Now we have to find the circumference which would be

2(3.14)r

r = 2 therefore: 2(3.14)2 = 12.56

Now that we have the circumference of the WHOLE circle we multiply it by 3/4 to find out the arc length

Which gives us  9.42

Last year a baseball team paid $20 per bat and $12 per glove spending a total of $1040 this year the prices went up to $25 per b
Sonja [21]
<span>20x + 12y = 1040
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12y' to each side of the equation. 20x + 12y + -12y = 1040 + -12y Combine like terms: 12y + -12y = 0 20x + 0 = 1040 + -12y 20x = 1040 + -12y Divide each side by '20'. x = 52 + -0.6y
thats the first part
then we have
</span>25x + 16y = 1350
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-16y' to each side of the equation.
25x + 16y + -16y = 1350 + -16y
Combine like terms:
16y + -16y = 0 25x + 0 = 1350 + -16y
25x = 1350 + -16y
Divide each side by '25'. x = 54 + -0.64y

Cerrena [4.2K]
<h3>Answers: </h3>

Angle 1 and 3:  Vertical Angles

Angle 4 and 8: Corresponding Angles

Angles 4 and 6: Alternate Interior Angles

Angles 3 and 5: Alternate Interior Angles

Angles 7 and 8: Linear Pair

Angles 1 and 7: Alternate Exterior Angles

=================================================

Explanation:

Vertical angles are formed when you cross two lines to form an X shape. The vertical angles are opposite one another in this configuration.

Corresponding angles are ones that show up in the same corner of each four-corner crossing. In the case of angles 4 and 8, both are in the southwest corner of each four-corner crossing.

Alternate interior angles are angles in between parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal. Alternate exterior angles are similar, but they are outside the parallel lines.

A linear pair of angles are adjacent and supplementary (meaning they add to 180).

If $3,000,000 is invested at 6% interest compounded continuously, how much
g100num [7]

Answer:

  $24,498,509.74

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the value as a function of time is ...

  V(t) = P·e^(rt)

Filling in the numbers and doing the arithmetic, we have ...

  V(35) = 3,000,000·e^(0.06·35) ≈ 24,498,509.74

Compounded continuously for 35 years, the investment will be worth $24,498,509.74.
