mel-nik [20]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation k=4w+3 represents the total number of kittens, where w represents <u>the number of weeks that have passed since Samantha started counting.</u>

This means options C and D are false, because they say <u>the total number of kittens that have come into the shelter</u>.

w represents the number of weeks, weeks can be counted 0 weeks, first week, second week and so on, so option B is true (the domain is all whole numbers) because 0, 1, 2, 3, ... are whole numbers.

Number of weeks can't be a negative number. Since "real numbers" include negatives, therefore, we exclude option A.

Esteban is shopping for a bookshelf. He has 58 non-fiction books and 145 fiction books. He wants each shelf to have the same num
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Criteria:

• same number of books on each shelf

 ⇒find a number that divides 58 and 145

• greatest number of books on each shelf

 ⇒find the greatest number that divides 58 and 145

Find the GCF of 58 and 145.

58 = 2 ⋅ 29

145 = 5 ⋅ 29The GCF of 58 and 145 is 29.

Each shelf will contain 29 books.

There are 203 total books (because 58 + 145 = 203).

Divide 203 by 29 to find the number of shelves there should be.

203 / 29 = 7

Therefore, there will be 7 shelves.
