Answer:
The answer is 14
Step-by-step explanation:
14x2=28
14x3=42 so the greatest common factor is 14
Answer:
The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:
n=3.24242424...
10n=32.4242424....
100n=324.2424242...
Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:
100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321
99n = 321
n = 321/99
Answer: Perimeter = 40
Area = 204
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is the sum of all the sides:
11 + 12 + 17 = 40
The area of a triangle is 1/2 base x height
1/2( 17 x 24)
1/2( 408) = 204
Answer:
18 Skittles
6 M&Ms
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation:
Variable x = number of skittles
Variable y = number of M&Ms
1.50x + 2y = 39
x + y = 24
In the second equation, isolate a variable:
x = 24 - y
Substitute the value of x for 24 - y in the first equation:
1.50(24 - y) + 2y = 39
Use distributive property
36 - 1.5y + 2y = 39
Combine like terms
36 + 0.5y = 39
Isolate variable y:
0.5y = 3
y = 6
Substitute the value of y for 6 in the second equation:
x + 6 = 24
Isolate variable x:
x = 18
Plug these values into any equation of your choice to see if these values are correct (I'll do both equations just to prove it):
1.50(18) + 2(6) = 39
27 + 12 = 39
39 = 39
Correct
x + y = 24
18 + 6 = 24
24 = 24
Correct
