gg easy

we want to cancel 1 term

first, get them into form am+bn=c where a, b, and c are constants

m-2n=2 is good

m+n=2(n-3) is m+n=2n-6 which is m-n=-6


compare constants

m's have 1 and 1

n's have -2 and -1

let's cancel m's


a. multiply 1st equation by -1

-m+2n=-2

add to 2nd equation


-m+2n=-2

<u>m-n=-6 +</u>

0m+n=-8


n=-8

sub back

m-n=-6

m-(-8)=-6

m+8=-6

m=-14



b. to check

m=-14 and n=-8

m-2n=2

-14-2(-8)=2

-14+16=2

2=2 yep


m-n=-6

-14-(-8)=-6

-14+8=-6

-6=-6 yep


so m=-14 and n=-8 is the solution

Francis works at Carlos Bakery and is making cookie trays. She has 48 chocolate chip cookies, 64 rainbow cookies, and 120 oatmea
amm1812

The number of cookies and trays are illustrations of greatest common factors.

  • The number of trays is 8
  • 6 chocolate chips, 8 rainbows and 15 oatmeal cookies would fit each tray

The given parameters are:

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip=48}

\mathbf{Rainbow=64}

\mathbf{Oatmeal=120}

<u>(a) The number of trays</u>

To do this, we simply calculate the greatest common factor of 48, 64 and 120

Factorize the numbers, as follows:

\mathbf{48 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3}

\mathbf{64 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2}

\mathbf{120 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 5}

So, the GCF is:

\mathbf{GCF= 2 \times 2 \times 2}

\mathbf{GCF= 8}

Hence, the number of tray is 8

<u>(b) The number of each type of cookie</u>

We have

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip=48}

\mathbf{Rainbow=64}

\mathbf{Oatmeal=120}

Divide each cookie by the number of trays

So, we have:

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip = \frac{48}{8} = 6}

\mathbf{Rainbow = \frac{64}{8} = 8}

\mathbf{Oatmeal = \frac{150}{8} = 15}

Hence, 6 chocolate chips, 8 rainbows and 15 oatmeal cookies would fit each tray
