Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Packages of pencils = 6

Packages of erasers = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Pencils = 10/package

Erasers = 12 / package

Process

Find the least common factor of 10 and 12

                                    10     12     2

                                     5       6     2

                                     5       3     3

                                     5        1    5

                                      1

LCF = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60

Finally divide 60 by the number of pencils or erasers in each package

Packages of pencils = 60/10 = 6

Packages of erasers = 60/12 = 5

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of 90°

a point (x, y ) → (- y, x ), thus

P(1, - 1 ) → P'(1, 1 )

Q(3, - 2 ) → Q'(2, 3 )

R(3, - 4 ) → R'(4, 3 )

HELP PLEASE!!
shutvik [7]

Answer:

6.5 x 10^6 To answer this question, you need to divide the mass of the sun by the mass of mercury. So 2.13525 x 10^30 / 3.285 x 10^23 = ? To do the division, divide the mantissas in the normal fashion 2.13525 / 3.285 = 0.65 And subtract the exponents. 30 - 23 = 7 So you get 0.65 x 10^7 Unless the mantissa is zero, the mantissa must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than 10. So multiply the mantissa by 10 and then subtract 1 from the exponent, giving 6.5 x 10^6 So the sun is 6.5 x 10^6 times as massive as mercury.
