Answer:
The answer to your question is:
Packages of pencils = 6
Packages of erasers = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Pencils = 10/package
Erasers = 12 / package
Process
Find the least common factor of 10 and 12
10 12 2
5 6 2
5 3 3
5 1 5
1
LCF = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
Finally divide 60 by the number of pencils or erasers in each package
Packages of pencils = 60/10 = 6
Packages of erasers = 60/12 = 5
<span>You are given a rectangular picture measuring 8 inches by 7 inches. Also, Alistair wants this to be framed and that the total area is 34 square inches. The width of the frame is x inches. To solve the dimension of the frame with value of x we have:
We have to assume that x here will be equal to all sides of the frame and so, using the area of the rectangle, we can model the equation like this:
A = LW (where A is the area, L is the length and W is the width)
36 = (8 - x)(7 - x)
36 = 56 - 8x - 7x + x</span>²
<span>x</span>² - 15x +20 = 0 → model of our equation and in quadratic form
x² - 15x + 20 = 0
using a calculator, x = 1.48 inches

Answer: a) 2:1. b) 3. c) Perimeter of ΔEFG=36 Perimeter of ΔHIJ=18. d) 2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Find the ratio of GF and JI. 16:8. Simplify by dividing both by 8 to get 2:1.
b) Set up this equation: 6/16=x/8. Cross-multiply. 6*8=48. Divide by 16. 48/16=3.
c) First find the length of one half of GF by dividing 16 by 2. 16/2=8. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2+6^2=c^2. Square 8 and 6. 64+36=c^2. Add 64 and 36. 100=c^2. Find the square root of 100. c=10.
EF and EG both measure 10 since they are shown to be congruent. 10+10+16=36.
Next find the length of one half of JI by dividing 8 by 2. 8/2=4. Set up the Pythagorean theorem. Since we know x=3, it will be 4^2+3^2=c^2. Square both 4 and 3. 16+9=c^2. Add 16 and 9. 25=c^2. Find the square root of 25. c=5.
HJ and HI both measure 5 since they are congruent. 5+5+8=18.
d) Find the ratio of the perimeters of ΔEFG and ΔHIJ. 36:18. Simplify by dividing both by 6 to get 6:3. Simplify further by dividing both by 3 to get 2:1.
Answer:
they are 27, 28, and 29.
