Answer:

Marcus can make 12 packages, with 2 toothbrushes and 3 bars of soap in each package.

Step-by-step explanation:

For all the packages to be identical, they must all contain the same numbers of soaps and the same nuber of toothbrushes.

The ratior of soaps to brushes is 36/24 = 3/2

He could make 24 packages, each with 1 tootbrush and (3/2) bars of soap.

Assuming he is not going to cut soap bars in half, that is no good.

To make the numbers of individual items come out as integers, the smallest number he can multiply them by is the denominator on the (3/2) bar of soap. That would be a 2.

So he can makes packages with toothbrushes =    2 x 1 =2

                                                and soap bars    = 3/2 x 2 = 3

He can put 5 items in each package - 3 soap bars and 2 toothbrushes.

That means he makes 12 packages.

The area of a trapezium is 800 cm2
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The distance between the parallel sides is 20cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid:

A=\frac{a+b}{2}\times h

where a and b are the 2 bases, and h is the height. The value we're trying to find here is the height.

3 of the 4 variables in this equation are already given:

A = 800

a = 48

b = 32

Just plug those in and solve for h:

\rightarrow 800=\frac{48+32}{2}\times h\\\rightarrow 800=\frac{80}{2}\times h\\\rightarrow 800=40\times h\\\rightarrow 800\div40=h\\\rightarrow h=20

Please help me with geometry
Ad libitum [116K]
If angle B is the reference angle, in our triangle we are given the measures of the sides opposite the angle and the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed.  This is the sin ratio that uses the side opposite the angle and the hypotenuse.  So to find the measure of angle B, we would use the inverse sin of 21/42. That's the first one.  The second one asks for the sin and cos of the acute angles in the triangle.  Angles A and B are the acute angles.  Looking at angle A first, the side across from it has a measure of 55, and the hypotenuse has a measure of 73, so the sin of angle A is 55/73.  The cos of an angle uses the side adjacent to the acute angle and the hypotenuse.  That means that the cos of angle A is 48/73.  Looking at angle B now, the side across from angle B is 48 and the hypotenuse is 73, so sin B = 48/73. Cos of B is side adjacent over hypotenuse, so cos B = 55/73.  Last choice is your answer.  As for the last question, the cosecant of an angle is the co-identity of the sin of the angle.  So we find the sin of the angle in ratio form and flip the fraction upside down.  The sin of theta in the triangle above is 7/25, so the csc of theta is 25/7, choice four above.
