Answer:

3 packs of plates; 5 packs of cups

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the least common multiple of the two. (factor tree, birthday cake) (Strategies not shown) You should get 180.

Next we have to see how many times each number goes into 180.

60 times 3 is 180 plates. 36 times 5 is 180.

That's your answer. Hope this helps!

if the lesser of two consecutive even integers is seven more than half the greater, what are the two integers?

beks73 [17]

Answer: 16 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lesser of two consecutive even integers is x.

Hence, the bigger of two consecutive even integers is (x+2).

$\displaystyle\\x-\frac{x+2}{2}=7 \\$

Multiply both parts of the equation by 2:

$x(2)-(x+2)=7(2)\\2x-x-2=14\\x-2=14\\x-2+2=14+2\\x=16\\x+2=16+2\\x+2=18$

Y^2-2y+1=x+5 Make y the theme of the formula in the equation

Tanzania [10]

Answer: y = 1 +/- $\sqrt{x+5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

y² - 2y + 1 = x + 5

(y - 1)² = x + 5

$\sqrt{(y-1)^{2}} = \sqrt{x+5}$

y - 1 = +/- $\sqrt{x+5}$

y = 1 +/- $\sqrt{x+5}$
