To figure this out, you should think about the multiples of 10 boxes you could have.

If I had 10 small boxes, there would need to be 86 large boxes. 86 is not evenly divisible by 8 so that doesn't work.

If I had 20 small boxes, there would be 76 large boxes. 76 is not evenly divisible by 8.

If I had 30 small boxes, there would be 66 large boxes. 66 is not evenly divisible by 8.

If I had 40 small boxes, there would be 56 large boxes. 56 is every divisible by 8.

4 cartons of 10 small boxes and 7 cartons of 8 large boxes would be needed. This is a total of 11 cartons.

I would like some help on this.
Lena [83]

Any applicent that went for 3-5, 6-8, or 9-11 went to fewer than 12 interviews. Therefore, we need to total these three columns up to find all the applicents that went on fewer than 12. 3-5 went on 6, 6-8 went on 8, and 9-11 went on 5. Therefore, 6 + 8 + 5 = 19 applicents.

Help with 35 to 40, don’t know if I am right
Sedaia [141]

Step-by-step explanation:

35. 1000 m / 1 km = 10³

Move the decimal point 3 places to the right.

36. 100 cm / 1 m = 10²

Move the decimal point 2 places to the right.

37. 1 mm / 1000 μm = 10⁻³

Move the decimal point 3 places to the left.

38. 1 km / 1000 m × 1 m / 100 cm = 10⁻⁵

Move the decimal point 5 places to the left.

39. 1 Mm / 10⁶ m × 1 m / 10⁶ μm = 10⁻¹²

Move the decimal point 12 places to the left.

40. 100 cm / m × 1000 m / km = 10⁵

Move the decimal point 5 places to the right.

The slope of any line perpendicular to , where A(0, -3) and B(4, 9) are two points on the line, is m =
enyata [817]

Answer:

m = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line can be calculated using the slope formula.

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{9--3}{4-0} = \frac{12}{4} = 3

Since this is the line with points AB, the slope of any line perpendicular to it will be -1/3. All perpendicular lines cross at a 90 degree angle and as such their slopes are the negative reciprocals of each other. This means 3 becomes -1/3.

Question 2 - Signal and System Properties. State whether each of the statements is true or false. Note that a statement is true
gregori [183]

Answer:

  (a) true

  (b) true

  (c) false; {y = x, t < 1; y = 2x, t ≥ 1}

  (d) false; y = 200x for .005 < |x| < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)  "s(t) is periodic with period T" means s(t) = s(t+nT) for any integer n. Since values of n may be of the form n = 2m for any integer m, then this also means ...

  s(t) = s(t +2mt) = s(t +m(2T)) . . . for any integer m

This equation matches the form of a function periodic with period 2T.

__

(b) A system being linear means the output for the sum of two inputs is the sum of the outputs from the separate inputs:

  s(a) +s(b) = s(a+b) . . . . definition of linear function

Then if a=b, you have

  2s(a) = s(2a)

__

(c) The output from a time-shifted input will only be the time-shifted output of the unshifted input if the system is time-invariant. The problem conditions here don't require that. A system can be "linear continuous time" and still be time-varying.

__

(d) A restriction on an input magnitude does not mean the same restriction applies to the output magnitude. The system may have gain, for example.

2/7 of students in a school are in 8th grade.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

First we would find the unit rate of students per seventh. So we would do 40 divided by 2 which gives us 20. So per 1/7 we have 20 students. Which we can then say 7 x 20 = 140. So in total there are 140 students

Hope this helped
