Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Criteria:
• same number of books on each shelf
⇒find a number that divides 58 and 145
• greatest number of books on each shelf
⇒find the greatest number that divides 58 and 145
Find the GCF of 58 and 145.
58 = 2 ⋅ 29
145 = 5 ⋅ 29The GCF of 58 and 145 is 29.
Each shelf will contain 29 books.
There are 203 total books (because 58 + 145 = 203).
Divide 203 by 29 to find the number of shelves there should be.
203 / 29 = 7
Therefore, there will be 7 shelves.
Answer:
w>-1
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Move terms
53w-56w<16-13
2 Collect like terms then subtract
-3w< 3
3 Divide both sides by -3
Answer: w>-1
Answer:
y = -3x
Explanation:
k = -3
y ¤ x......where ¤ represents the Greek alpha sign
y = k • x
y = -3 • x
y = -3x
Number of adults = 264
Number of children= 127
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adults be......x
Let the number of children be.....y
The total number of people that used the public swimming pool is given as 391. This means
x+y=391
The total cost per the receipt is : $752.75
This means, 2.25 x+ 1.25 y = 752.75
The two equations are;
x+y=391 ...........(i)
2.25 x+ 1.25 y = 752.75...........(ii)
Making the x variable equal to eliminate x
2.25x + 2.25 y = 879.75
2.25x + 1.25 y = 752.75
Apply subtraction as
1.00 y = 127.00
y=127
Use the value of y in equation (i)
x+y=391
x+127=391
x=391-127=264
Number of adults = 264
Number of children= 127
