Answer:

3 red peppers and 1 yellow pepper in each basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Casey has 48 peppers and 16 yellow peppers. He wants to put the peppers into baskets so that each basket has the same number of red and yellow peppers. We are asked to find the number of red and yellow papers in each basket.

To solve our given problem, we need to find greatest common factor of 48 and 16.

Prime factorization of 48 is 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3.

Prime factorization of 16 is 2\times 2\times 2\times 2.

Greatest common factor of 48 and 16 would be 2\times 2\times 2\times 2=16.

Therefore, Casey can make 16 baskets with same number of red and yellow peppers.

Now we will divide 48 and 16 by 16 to find number of red peppers and yellow peppers in each basket respectively.

\text{Red peppers in each baseket}=\frac{48}{16}=3

\text{Red peppers in each baseket}=\frac{16}{16}=1

Therefore, there will be 3 red peppers and 1 yellow pepper in each basket.

What are the intercepts of this line?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

x-intercept is -1; y-intercept is 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is relatively easy to read off.  It's the x-value where the graph crosses the x-axis, and here is (-1,0).

The y-intercept is best estimated as (0,+0.5).

The correct answer is the 3rd one on the list.

Find all values of k for which the equation 3x^2−4x+k=0 has no solutions.
dusya [7]

The given equation has no solution when K is any real number  and k>12

We have given that

3x^2−4x+k=0

△=b^2−4ac=k^2−4(3)(12)=k^2−144.

<h3>What is the condition for a solution?</h3>

If Δ=0, it has 1 real solution,

Δ<0 it has no real solution,

Δ>0 it has 2 real solutions.

We get,

Δ=k^2−144 here Δ is not zero.

It is either >0 or <0

Δ<0 it has no real solution,

Therefore the given equation has no solution when K is any real number.
