Answer:

The manager will put 6 parakeets each in 7 cages and 6 canaries each in 3 cages.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will find the greatest common factor of 42 and 18 to know the answer.

42 = 2 x 3 x 7

18 = 2 x 3 x 3

So, greatest common factor is 2\times3=6

So, 42 parakeets need 42/6 =7 cages

And 18 canaries need 18/6=3 cages

So, the manager will put 6 parakeets each in 7 cages and 6 canaries each in 3 cages.

The following sequence is geometric. What is the next term?
Kruka [31]
A geometric sequence is one where you multiply each number in the sequence by the same number. Here, obviously the number which you multiply by is 3, because 12 * 3 = 36, 36 * 3 = 108, 108 * 3 = 324, and in order to finish the sequence, you multiply 324 by 3 and get 972.
The correct answer is 972.

Could a quadrilateral have 4 obtuse angles
Alex73 [517]
No because all quadrilaterals must equal a total of 360 degrees. If you have four angles that are greater than 90 degrees the sum of all the interior angles is greater than 360 degrees therefore it cannot exist as a quadrilateral.

Describe the pattern below<br><br> 3 6.5 11 16.5 23
ipn [44]
6.5 - 3 = 3.5
11 - 6.5 = 4.5
16.5 - 11 = 5.5
23 - 16.5 = 6.5

From this, you can see that the number being added is increasing by 1 each time.

Therefore, the pattern is adding 3.5, then 4.5, then 5.5, then 6.5, and so on.
