The greatest possible number of club members is 7

Solution:

Given that, local readers’ club has a set of 49 hardback books and a set of 21 paperbacks

Each set can be divided equally among the club members

To find the greatest possible number of club members, we have to find the greatest common factor of 49 and 21

The greatest number that is a factor of two (or more) other numbers.

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.

Greatest common factor of 49 and 21:

The factors of 21 are: 1, 3, 7, 21

The factors of 49 are: 1, 7, 49

Then the greatest common factor is 7

Thus, the greatest possible number of club members is 7

An investment of $7,650 at the rate of 5% and is compounded quarterly. What is the investment at the end of 9 years?

ankoles [38]

Answer:

FV = P(1 + r/t)^nt; where P is the initial investment, r is the rate, t is the number of accumulation in a year, n is the number of years.

FV = 7650(1 + 0.05/4)^(9 x 4) = 7650(1 + 0.0125)^36 = 7650(1.0125)^36 = 7650(1.564) = $11,964.17

Solve the equation A = bh for b. b = Ah b = A/h b = h/A b = h – A Solve the equation A = bh for b. b = Ah b = A/h b = h/A b = h

Leto [7]

Answer:

The answer is " $b=\frac{A}{h}$ ".

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore in this question the "bh" were the multiplied and these values includes the variable which is solving by the isolating of "b".

Let's Divides the both sides for h.

$\to \frac{A}{h} = \frac{bh}{h}\\\\\to \frac{A}{h} = b\\\\\to b= \frac{A}{h}$

Please help me to solve this sum please gI've correct answer

disa [49]

This question requires creating a few equations and working through them step-by-step. Now, first let's give each of the shapes a variable: let's say that the blue shape is a, the orange shape is b and the green shape is c.

1. We can technically create six formulas for the magic square, with three for sum of the rows and three for the sum of the columns, however the smartest way to approach this is to observe whether there are any obvious answers that we can get.

We can see in row 2 that there are three of the same shape (a) that add to 57. This makes it very simple to calculate the value of the shape.

Since 3a = 57

a = 57/3 = 19

2. Now we need to find a row or column that includes a and one other shape; we could choose either column 2 or 3, so let's go with column 2. Remembering that the blue shape is a and the orange shape is b:

2a + b = 50

Now, given that a = 19:

2(19) + b = 50

38 + b = 50

b = 12

3. We can now take any of the rows or columns that include the third shape (c) since we already know the values of the other two shapes. Let's take column 1:

a + b + c = 38

19 + 12 + c = 38

31 + c = 38

c = 38 - 31

c = 7

Thus, the value of the blue shape is 19, the value of the orange shape is 12 and the value of the green shape is 7.

Please help!!! On my hw

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

c(X)=R(X)

125x+18000=215x

18000=215x-125x

18000=90x (divede both sides by 90)

X=200
