This is a GCF problem,
find the GCF of 36 and 27. To do this, list out the factors for each number.
EX 36- 1×36, 2×18, so on and so on. Then do this for 27. The GCF will be the greatest factor. In this case, that is 9.
So there would be 9 groups because that is the greatest common factor.
there would be 4 roses in each group because 4×9= 36.
There are 3 carnations in each group because 9×3 =27.
So 9 groups with 4 roses and 3 carnations.
Number of matchsticks required is 2. Rule which matchstick pattern is 2 x n.
Answer:
<em> y = 4.25x</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
After 2 week he has used 8 1/2 cups of dog food after 5 week he has used 21 1/4 cups, we can write this in coordinate form (x, y) where;
y is the amount of dog food
x is the time in weeks
The coordinates are (2, 8 1/2) and (5, 21 1/4)
get the slope m:
m = y2-y1/x2-x1
m = (21 1/4 - 8 1/2)/5-2
m = (85/4-17/2)/3
m = (85-34/4)/3
m = 51/12
m = 4.25
Get the intercept c:
Substitute any of the points say (2, 17/2) and m = 51/12 into the equation
y = mx+c
17/2 = 51/12(2) + c
17/2 = 51/6 + c
c = 17/2 - 51/6
c = 51-51/6
c = 0
Get the required equation:
substitute m - 4.25 and c = 0 into y = mx+c
y = 4.25x + 0
<em>Hence the required equation is y = 4.25x</em>
<em></em>
6/x = x-1
Multiply x by both sides
6= x(x-1)
Set x and x-1 equal to 6
x = 6, x = 1+6 = 7
The larger number is 10 - x.
2(10 - x) - (-20)
20 - 2x + 20
40 - 2x
