Answer:

  1. (rose bunches, lily bunches) ∈ {(2, 3), (4, 6), (6, 9), (8, 12)}. The least is (2, 3).

  2. 6(2+3); 14(3+1); 9(4+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

I like Euclid's algorithm for finding the greatest common factor (GCF): divide the larger number by the smaller, and note the remainder. If the remainder is zero, the smaller is the GCF; if not, use the remainder in place of the larger number and repeat.

__

1. The GCF of 8 and 12 is 4, so the least common multiple is ...

  LCM(a, b) = ab/GCF(a, b)

  LCM(8, 12) = 8·12/4 = 24

24 roses is 2 bunches; 24 lilies is 3 bunches. Up to 8 bunches of roses can be ordered to keep the number less than 100.

The florist could have ordered these numbers of bunches (roses, lilies):

  (2, 3), (4, 6), (6, 9), (8, 12)

The least order is 2 bunches of roses and 3 bunches of lilies.

__

2.

A. GCF = 6, so the factored form is 6(2+3)

B. GCF = 14, so the factored form is 14(3+1)

C. GCF = 9, so the factored form is 9(4+3)

A soda machine takes 3 seconds to fill a 15-ounce cup. If t represents the time in seconds, which equation can you use to find h
Svet_ta [14]

Information we know:

a 15 ounce cup takes 3 second to fill

determine variables:

x=3

y=15

rate:

y/x=3/15= 0.2

fixture an equation:

y=kx

y=0.2x

plug in 40 for x:

y=0.2(40)

=8

Thus, it should take 8 seconds to fill a 40-ounce cup of soda.

A force of 84N is applied to an area of<br> 15cm". Work out the pressure in N/cm².<br> cm3)
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:  5.6 N/cm^2

============================================

Work Shown:

Pressure = (Force)/(Area)

P = F/A

P = (84 N)/(15 cm^2)

P = (84/15) (N/cm^2)

P = 5.6 N/cm^2

For every square cm, 5.6 newtons of force is applied.

-------------

Extra info:

If you wanted to convert this to pascals, then you would need to convert 15 cm^2 to 0.0015 square meters. Then apply the formula above to get 56,000 pascals. 1 pascal is equivalent to 1 N/m^2.
