Answer:

a. Maximum 3 baskets

b. Number of oranges = 6

c. Number of bananas = 4

d. Number of pears = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Peter has 18 oranges, 27 pears and 12 bananas.

He wants to prepare the fruit baskets with the same number of each fruit in each basket.

a). Greatest number of fruit baskets can be prepared by calculating highest common factor.

Factors of 18 = 2×3×3

Factors of 27 = 3×3×3

Factors of 12 = 2×2×3

Now highest common factor of 18, 12 and 27 = 3

Therefore, maximum 3 baskets can be prepared.

b. Number of oranges in each basket = \frac{18}{3}=6

c. Number of bananas in each basket = \frac{12}{3}=4

d. Pears in each basket = \frac{27}{3}=9

vova2212 [387]

The garden club earned $15 per hour by weeding neighborhood gardens for t hours.

A generous donor has agreed to double their earnings.

Double their earnings means we multiply by 2

So earning 15 per hour becomes 2*15 = 30 per hour

Given the number of hours is t

Earnings = $30 times number of hours

Earnings = 30 * t

If the slope of line L is -2/5, what is the slope of line m so that line l and line m are perpendicular?
ki77a [65]
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if the slope is -2/5...to find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the slope and change the sign.
So we flip -2/5 and we get 5/-2...and now we change the sign...and we get 5/2. So our perpendicular slope will be 5/2.

The area for a trapezoid is A = 1/2 h (base 1 + base 2).  You have the top base of 8.  But straight down underneath that is also a base of 8.  Next to that 8 you have a 4, so thus far you have a bottom base of 8 + 4.  But you're missing what's over on the left.  That base measure of that triangle is also 4, because the triangles are congruent.  So the whole bottom base is 4 + 8 + 4 = 16.  Now you have everything you need:  A = 1/2 (6) (8 + 16).  Do the addition inside the parenthesis first to get 24.  Now multiply that by 6 to get 144.  Now finally, divide that by 2 to get 72 cm^2
