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.

Please help!! It's extra credit work, I'm on Spring break, and I'm tring to be on honor roll!!
Reika [66]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Since tan(H) equals 1, we can conclude that angle H equals 45 degrees. Therefore, we know that it is a 45-45-90 triangle. Therefore, since both legs are equal, sin or cos doesn’t matter. Therefore, C is correct. (Draw it for yourself, it helps)
