8 0

Answer: 2 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Quentin places 58 fish in several tanks and that he places 8 fish in each tank. This means the amount of tanks that'll be used will be:

= 58/8

= 7 2/8

Since 7 tanks will be used and each tank contains 8 fishes, the number of fishes will be: = 7 × 8 = 56

Since there are 58 fishes and 56 fishes are in the tank, there'll be a remainder of (58 - 56) = 2 fishes which will be placed in the small fish bowl.

The sum of 5 times one number, x, and 4 times a second number, y, is 75. If the sum of the two numbers is 18, find the two numbe
satela [25.4K]

Answer:x=3 and y=15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are told "sum of 5 times one number, x, and 4 times a second number, y, is 75":

5x+4y=75 (1)

Then, we are told "he sum of the two numbers is 18":

x+y=18 (2)

At this point we have our system of equations and now we are able to find the values of x and y.

So, let's begin by isolating x from (2):

x=18-y (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

5(18-y)+4y=75 (4)

Finding y:

90-5y+4y=75

y=15 (5) This is the value of y

Substituting (5) in (1):

5x+4(15)=75 (6)

Finding y:

5x+60=75 (7)

x=3 (8) This is the value of x

Pencils come in packages of 10.Erasers come in packages of 12. Phillips wants to purpose the smallest number of pencils and eras
balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Packages of pencils = 6

Packages of erasers = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Pencils = 10/package

Erasers = 12 / package

Process

Find the least common factor of 10 and 12

                                    10     12     2

                                     5       6     2

                                     5       3     3

                                     5        1    5

                                      1

LCF = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60

Finally divide 60 by the number of pencils or erasers in each package

Packages of pencils = 60/10 = 6

Packages of erasers = 60/12 = 5

Sin x = - 1/2<br> where (-360 &lt; x &lt; 360)
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-30, 210 and 330 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression Sin x = - 1/2

x = arcsin(-1/2)

x = -30 degrees

Since sin is negative in the third and fourth quadrant

x = 180 + 30

x = 210 degrees

In the fourth quadrant

x = 360 - 30

x = 330

Hence the value of x within the interval -360 < x < 360 are -30, 210 and 330 degrees
