Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to find the least amount of packages, you'll have to find what multiple they have in common.

One way to find this is 6x8, which is 48, but that isn't always the lowest.

Here are the first few multiples of six: 6, 12, 18, (24), 30, 36, 42, and 48.

Here are the first few multiples of eight: 8, 16, (24), 32, 40, 48, 56, and64

Show all work to solve 3x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0

Ratling [72]

Answer:

x=1/3 or x=−2

if i can be brainliest that would be great

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add 2 to both sides.

3x^2+5x−2+2=0+2

3x^2+5x=2

Step 2: Since the coefficient of 3x^2 is 3, divide both sides by 3.

3x^2+5x/3=2/3

x^2+5/3x=2/3

Step 3: The coefficient of 5/3x is 5/3. Let b=5/3.

Then we need to add (b/2)^2=25/36 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 25/36 to both sides.

x^2+5/3x+25/36=2/3+25/36

x^2+5/3x+25/36=49/36

Step 4: Factor left side.

(x+5/6)^2=49/36

Step 5: Take square root.

x+5/6=±√49/36

Step 6: Add (-5)/6 to both sides.

x+5/6+ −5/6=

−5/6±√49/36x=−5/6±√49/36x=

1/3 or x=−2

Given: Angle 2 is 65 degrees. What is the angle measurement of Angle 4. Explain the angle relationship used and show your work.

lesya [120]

Answer:

$\angle 4 = 115^{\circ}$

$\angle 3 = 65^{\circ}$

$\angle 7 = 65^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\angle 2 = 65^{\circ}$

See attachment

Solving (a): $\angle 4$

To solve for $\angle 4$ , we make use of:

$\angle 2 +\angle 4 = 180^{\circ}$

The relationship between both angles is that they are complementary angles

Make $\angle 4$ the subject

$\angle 4 = 180^{\circ} - \angle 2$

Substitute $65^{\circ}$ for $\angle 2$

$\angle 4 = 180^{\circ} - 65^{\circ}$

$\angle 4 = 115^{\circ}$

Solving (b): $\angle 3$

To solve for $\angle 3$ , we make use of:

$\angle 3 =\angle 2$

The relationship between both angles is that they are complementary angles

$\angle 3 = 65^{\circ}$

Solving (c): $\angle 7$

To solve for $\angle 7$ , we make use of:

$\angle 7 = \angle 3$

The relationship between both angles is that they are alternate exterior angles.

So:

$\angle 7 = 65^{\circ}$

zheka24 [161]

If you get rid of the whole number in that fraction, you will have 3/2.
So the opposite of that would be 2/3.
I believe the answer is 2/3.

Can you please show me the steps and solution to this problem?

ANEK [815]

M = - 7 - 3 / - 2 - 4
m = - 10 / - 6
m = 10/6
m = 5/3

y = 5/3x + c , (4,3)
3 = 5/3(4) + c
12 = 20 + 4c
4c = - 8
c = - 2
y = 5/3x - 2
