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

What are the coordinates of point B on \overline{AC} such that AB = 1/2 BC
marta [7]

Answer:

C. B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A(x,y) = (6,-7), B(x,y) = (x,y) and C(x,y) = (-3,-2). From statement we know that AB = \frac{1}{2}\cdot BC, which is equivalent to the following linear algebraic formula:

B(x,y) -A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [C(x,y)-B(x,y)] (1)

B(x,y)-A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot B(x,y)

\frac{3}{2}\cdot B(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)+A(x,y)

B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot C(x,y) +\frac{2}{3}\cdot A(x,y) (2)

Then, the coordinates of point B on AC are:

B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot (-3,-2)+\frac{2}{3}\cdot (6,-7)

B(x,y) = \left(-1, -\frac{2}{3}\right)+\left(4, -\frac{14}{3} \right)

B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)

Which means that correct answer is C.
