the gender of the kids does not matter so it can be discarded.
you add up how many boys and girls in the class to make a total of 50 kids
your 100% is 50
meaning 40% of 50 is 20
so if 20 kids took the bus to school then 30 did not take the bus.
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 2x - 15 = 0
x1 = 5
x2 = -3
Number of shares
1050/10=105
After one year share value
10×(1+0.13)=11.3
After the second year share value
11.3×(1−0.05)=10.735
Total
10.735×105=1,127.175
Answer:
6. No. See explanation below.
7. 18 months
8. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
6. To rewrite a sum of two numbers using the distributive property, the two numbers must have a common factor greater than 1.
Let's find the GCF of 85 and 99:
85 = 5 * 17
99 = 3^2 + 11
5, 3, 11, and 17 are prime numbers. 85 and 99 have no prime factors in common. The GCF of 85 and 99 is 1, so the distributive property cannot be used on the sum 85 + 99.
Answer: No because the GCF of 85 and 99 is 1.

We can solve this problem with the lest common multiple. We need to find a number of a month that is a multiple of both 6 and 9.
6 = 2 * 3
9 = 3^2
LCM = 2 * 3^2 = 2 * 9 = 18
Answer: 18 months
We can also answer this problem with a chart. We write the month number and whether they are home or on a trip. Then we look for the first month in which both are on a trip.

First, we find the prime factorizations of 96 an 80.
96 = 2^5 * 3
80 = 2^4 *5
GCF = 2^4 = 16
Answer: 16
