Use a proportion.

3 counselors to 24 campers equals x counselors to 40 campers.

3/24 = x/40

1/8 = x/40

x = 1/8 * 40

x = 5

Answer: 5

The greatest common factor of 30.48.60
Elena-2011 [213]
30= 3*10
30= 3*2*5

48= 12*4
48= 3*4*4
48= 3*2*2*2*2

60= 3*20
60= 3*10*2
60= 3*2*5*2

The GCF is 3*2 because all 3 numbers contain a 3 and a 2 in their prime factorizations.

Find the values of X and Y that makes these triangles congruent by the HL theorem
muminat

Answer:

C. x = 3, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If both triangles are congruent by the HL Theorem, then their hypotenuse and a corresponding leg would be equal to each other.

Thus:

x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1) => equal hypotenuse

Also,

x = y + 1 (eqn. 2) => equal legs

✔️Substitute x = y + 1 into eqn. 1 to find y.

x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1)

(y + 1) + 3 = 3y

y + 1 + 3 = 3y

y + 4 = 3y

y + 4 - y = 3y - y

4 = 2y

Divide both sides by 2

4/2 = 2y/2

2 = y

y = 2

✔️ Substitute y = 2 into eqn. 2 to find x.

x = y + 1 (eqn. 2)

x = 2 + 1

x = 3

Write a positive or negative integer an increase of $15
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

  +15

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase is generally regarded as being positive. If units are dollars, an increase of $15 can be represented by the integer +15.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If units are dimes, then the number would be +150. So, you see, <em>the units are important </em>to know.

It also depends on <em>what is increasing</em> and what is being represented by the integer. If it is an increase in debt, then the change in net worth might be -15.
