Answer: 18 baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to find the greatest common multiple of these 3 numbers, and the greatest common multiple will be the maximum number of baskets:

To find it, we took the smaller number of the set, in this case 90, and we divide it by the smaller number that we can:

90/2 = 45

now we mus see if 45 divides 144 and 108, and is easy to see that is not the case, so this is not a common factor.

Now we try with 90/3 = 30

now, 30 divides the other two numbers? of course not (the multiples of 30 are 60, 90, 120, 150, etc)

Try with the next one,

90/4 is not integer

90/5 = 18

let's see if 18 divides the other two:

108/18 = 6

144/18 = 8

So 18 is the greatest common factor, this means that we will have 18 baskets, with 8 apples, 6 oranges and 5 pears each.

Answer:

d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know what d would be when x = -1, so we can start off by plugging in -1 for x to get the following equation: \sqrt{8 - (-1)} = 2(-1)+d. On the left hand side, 2 negatives become a positive sign, so the -(-1) becomes a +1, and 8+1 would equal 9. On the right hand side, we just multiply 2 and -1 to get -2. So, the equation now looks like this: \sqrt{9} = d-2. We know that \sqrt{9} = 3, so we would get 3 = d-2. THen we would add 2 to both sides to get d = 5. Hope this helps!

The given identity tells you ...
.. (sum of numbers) * (sum of squares - product) = (sum of cubes)

Substituting the given information, you have
.. (sum of numbers) * (29 -10) = 133
Then you can divide by (29 -10) to get
.. sum of numbers = 133/19 = 7

The sum of the two numbers is 7.
