Let "b" represent the number of biscuits Jacky baked.
.. container A holds (3/7)b
.. container B holds (1 -3/7)*(5/8)b = (5/14)b
.. container C holds (1 -3/7 -5/14)b = (3/14)b = 168
Then
.. b = 168/(3/14) = 784
Jacky baked 784 biscuits.
Answer:
The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is given by:
(1)
Where:
b: is the base
h: is the altitude = 10 cm
If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:

We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:

Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:

Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
I hope it helps you!

Answer:
x = 22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the triangle sides proportionally.
x/30 = 24/32
x = 30(24/32)
x = 22.5
