20 is the greatest common factor
Each group of 20 will have 1 brownie & 5 cookies
Answer:
The company should take a sample of 148 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The cable TV company whats to know what sample size to take to estimate the proportion/percentage of cable boxes in use during an evening hour.
They estimated a "pilot" proportion of p'=0.20
And using a 90% confidence level the CI should have a margin of error of 2% (0.02).
The CI for the population proportion is made using an approximation of the standard normal distribution, and its structure is "point estimation" ± "margin of error"
[p' ±
]
Where
p' is the sample proportion/point estimator of the population proportion
is the margin of error (d) of the confidence interval.

So






n= 147.28 ≅ 148 boxes.
I hope it helps!
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
11
Discussion:
Let "n" be the smaller number. Then
n * (n+5) = 176.
My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's 176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:
n(n+5) = 176 =>
n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0 => use the quadratic formula
n = ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) ) /2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 + 704) )/ 2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2 => as sqrt(729) = 27
= (-5 +\- 27) / 2 =>
= (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2 =>
= 22/2 or -32/2 =>
= 11 or -16
But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.
Thank you,

Option C:
is the possible expressions for length, width and height of the prism.
Explanation:
The volume of the rectangular prism is 
To determine the length, width and height of the rectangular prism, let us factor the expression.
Thus, factoring 5x from the expression, we have,

Let us break the expression
into two groups, we get,
![5x[\left(12 x^{2}+8 x\right)+(21 x+14)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5x%5B%5Cleft%2812%20x%5E%7B2%7D%2B8%20x%5Cright%29%2B%2821%20x%2B14%29%5D)
Factoring 4x from the term
, we get,
![5x[4 x(3 x+2)+(21x+14)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5x%5B4%20x%283%20x%2B2%29%2B%2821x%2B14%29%5D)
Similarly, factoring 7x from the term
, we get,
![5x[4 x(3 x+2)+7(3x+2)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5x%5B4%20x%283%20x%2B2%29%2B7%283x%2B2%29%5D)
Now, let us factor out
, we get,

Hence, the possible expressions for length, width and height of the prism is 
Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
