Since there are more parakeets than canaries, it is not possible to have only 1 of each bird in each cage <u>and</u> have the same number of birds in each cage.

He could use 42 cages, putting a canary in with the parakeet in 18 of them. Then he would have 18 cages with 2 birds each, and 24 cages with 1 bird each.

The only way to have the same number of birds (1) in all cages is to have 60 cages, 42 of which have 1 parakeet, and 18 of which have 1 canary.

_____

If more than 1 of each kind of bird can be put in the cage, the collection of birds could be put into 6 cages, each of which would be home to 7 parakeets and 3 canaries.

If
Kamila [148]

Answer Interest rate = 12.3%

The compound interest formula is given by:

Where

A = Future amount

P = Present amount (Principal amount)

r = Interest rate in decimal form

n = No. of times compounded per year

t = time in years.

We can say that if:

Present amount = P

Future amount = 3P

r = 12.3/100 = 0.123

n = 1

t = ?

Substitute the values in the formula of compound interest:

Taking log on both sides.

Round off to nearest option

t ≅ 9 years

Which presents the value of c
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

It's choice 2.  c = 3 sin 45 / sin 40.

Step by-step explanation:

m< A = 180 - 45-95

= 180 - 140

= 40 degrees.

So by the Sine Rule:

c / sin 45 = 3 / sin A

Cross multiply:

c sin A = 3 sin 45

c =  3 sin 45 / sin 40.
