The <em><u>correct answers</u></em> are:

7 mugs on each shelf; and 7 shelves for blue and 8 shelves for red.

Explanation:

To find the number of mugs that will fit on each shelf, we find the GCF (greatest common factor) of 49 and 56.  To do this, we find the prime factorization of each:

49 = 7(7)

56 = 7(8)

8 = 2(4)

4 = 2(2)

56 = 2(2)(2)(7)

The only common factor is 7, so this is the GCF.  This means that she needs to put 7 mugs on each shelf.

Since there are 49 blue mugs, she needs 49/7 = 7 shelves for them.

Since there are 56 red mugs, she needs 56/7 = 8 shelves for them.

Find me shape of the line through the pair of<br> points:<br> 1) (6,7) and (-3,5)
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Slope of the line through the pair of  points:  (6,7) and (-3,5) is \mathbf{-\frac{2}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Find me shape of the line through the pair of

points:

1) (6,7) and (-3,5)

<em>(Note: Correction. I assume there is spelling mistake and you need to find slope of line and not shape)</em>

The slope of line can be found using formula: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We are given points (6,7) and (-3,5)

We can write: x_1=6, y_1=7, x_2=-2, y_2=5

Now, putting values in the formula and finding slope

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{5-7}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{5-7}{-3+6}\\Slope=\frac{-2}{3}

So, the slope is -\frac{2}{3}

Therefore, Slope of the line through the pair of  points:  (6,7) and (-3,5) is \mathbf{-\frac{2}{3}}
