42 drank iced tea

60 drank either water or lemonade

So the ratio would be 42:60 or 7/10 as a fraction.

So D is the correct answer

Answer:

D. \frac{7}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of adults who drank iced tea = 42,

Bottled water = 24,

And, Lemonde = 36,

Thus, the total number of adults who drank either water or lemonade = 24 + 36 = 60

Hence, the ratio of adults who drank drank iced tea and who drank either water or lemonade

=\frac{\text{Adults who drank iced tea}}{\text{Adults who drank either water or lemonade}}

=\frac{42}{60}

Since, the HCF(42,60) = 6,

=\frac{42\div 6}{60\div 6}

=\frac{7}{10}

Option 'D' is correct.

Answer: The answer is Yes. A square is a rectangle because it possesses all the properties of a rectangle. These properties are: Interior angles measure 90∘ each.

Explanation:

Definition of a Rectangle:

A 4-sided flat shape with straight sides where all interior angles are right angles (90°).

Also, opposite sides are parallel and of equal length.

Definition of a Square:

A 4-sided flat shape with straight sides where all interior angles are right angles (90°).

Also, all sides have equal length

As you can see the first part of the definition of a square and rectangle are the same.

However, a square is a special case of a rectangle.

When all 4 sides of a rectangle are equal then the rectangle is a square.

So, a rectangle can also sometimes be a square.

14. Twelve more than seven times a number equals the number less six
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The number is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable n = number

12 + 7n = n - 6

Assuming the question is solve for n, isolate the variable:

Subtract n from both sides:

12 + 6n = -6

Subtract 12 from both sides:

6n = -18

Divide by 6 on both sides:

n = -3

Check your work:

12 + 7(-3) = -3 - 6

12 - 21 = -3 - 6

-9 = -9

Correct

What is the greatest common factors of 60w,34w^2,and 24w^4
andrew11 [14]

Answer: 2w

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor could also be referred to as the Highest common factor. Now

60w, 34w² and 24w⁴

Now let concert each to its factors

60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × w

34w² = 2 × 17 × w × w

24w⁴ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × w × w × w × w

Therefore H.C.F or the greatest common factor

G.C.F = 2 × w

= 2w
