Answer: 30 baskets.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

You need to find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

240 (apples) = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5

150 (pears) = 2 x 3 x 5 x 5

GCF (240, 150) = 2 x 3 x 5

                         = 30

You can make 30 baskets containing 240/30 = 8 apples and 150/30 = 5 pears.

In one day, by how much does the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand exceed the distance traveled by the tip of the
lidiya [134]
In one day, there are 24 hours. In 1 hour, there are 3,600 seconds. So, that means that there are 86,400 seconds. Also, in 1 day, the short hand which denotes the number of hours, makes 2 revolutions around the clock. Its distance traveled would be twice the perimeter of the circle. 

Distance traveled by hour hand = 2(2πr) = 4πr₁

In 60 s, the long hand, which denotes numbers of minutes, makes one revolution around the clock. Since there are 86,400 seconds in a day, that would be a total of 1,440 revolutions.

Distance traveled by minute hand = 1,440(2πr) = 2,880πr₂

Difference = 2880πr₂ - 4πr₁ = 4π(720r₂ - r₁), where r₁ is the length of hour hand and r₂ is the length of minute hand.

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The number of bags that zips on them is 78.

<h3>What is subtraction?</h3>

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The negative symbol represents subtraction.

Given the number of bags that the company makes is 140. 39 of the bags have buttons but no zips. 21 of the bags have zips but no buttons. 23 of the bags have neither zips nor buttons.

Bags that have both zip and button

= Total number of bags - Number of bags with zips but no buttons - Number of bags with buttons but no zips - Number of bags with nor zips nor the buttons

= 140 - 21 - 39 - 23

= 57

Now, the number of bags that has zips will be the bags that only have zips and the number of bags that has zips and buttons. Therefore, the number of bags with zips is,

n = Bags that have both zip and button + Number of bags with zips but no buttons

   = 37 + 21

   = 78

Hence, the number of bags that zips on them is 78.

The rate of change for function A is 2. It would originally be 2 over one but you can just simplify it down to 2. The rate of change for function B is 3. Which would also originally be 3 over 1.

1) f(x) + g(x)

= 7√x + 4 + 2√x - 2

= √x(7 + 2) + 2

= 9√x + 2  [ Final Answer ]

2) f(x) - g(x)

= 7√x + 4 - (2√x - 2)

= 7√x + 4 - 2√x + 2

= √x(7 - 2) + 6

= 5√x + 6   [ Final Answer ]

Hope this helps!
