Answer:

6 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Roger wants to place 84 sugar cookies and 66 chocolate chip cookies into plastic bags. Each bag must have the same number of cookies and only one type of cookie must be in each bag.

For the 84 sugar cookies:

number of cookies : 1    2     3      4      6     7      12      14      21     28    42    84

number of bags    : 84   42   28    21    14    12     7        6       4       3      2        1

For the 66 chocolate cookies:

number of cookies : 1       2      3       6      11       22     33      66

number of bags      : 66   33    22     11       6       3        2       1

The maximum common factor between 84 and 66 is 6.

Therefore 6 cookies should be placed in each bag. For sugar cookies, 6 cookies would be placed in each of the 14 bags while for the chocolate cookies, 6 cookies would be placed in each of the 11 bags.

In the given figure, mWY = 76° and mXZ = 112. What is the difference of the measures of angle WPY and angle XPY?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Please consider the attached image for complete question.

We have been given that measure of arc WY is 76° and and measure of arc XZ is 112°. We are asked to find the difference of of the measures of angle WPY and angle XPY.

First of all we will find the measure of angle WPY using intersecting secants theorem. Intersecting secants theorem states that measure of angle formed by two intersecting secants inside a circle is half the sum of intercepting arcs.

m\angle WPY=\frac{1}{2}(\widehat{WY}+\widehat{XZ})

m\angle WPY=\frac{1}{2}(76^{\circ}+112^{\circ})

m\angle WPY=\frac{1}{2}(188^{\circ})

m\angle WPY=94^{\circ}

We can see that angle WPY and angle XPY are linear angles, so they will add up-to 180 degrees.

m\angle WPY+m\angle XPY=180^{\circ}

94^{\circ}+m\angle XPY=180^{\circ}

94^{\circ}-94^{\circ}+m\angle XPY=180^{\circ}-94^{\circ}

m\angle XPY=86^{\circ}

Now we need to find difference of both angles as:

m\angle WPY-m\angle XPY=94^{\circ}-86^{\circ}

m\angle WPY-m\angle XPY=8^{\circ}

Therefore, the difference of the measures of angle WPY and angle XPY is 8 degrees.

Write the quadratic equation in standard form:<br> 7x + 8 + 2x2<br> 2x + 1 + x2
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

3x^2 + 9x  +9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(7x + 8 + 2x^2) + (2x + 1 + x^2)

Required

The result in standard form

We have:

(7x + 8 + 2x^2) + (2x + 1 + x^2)

Remove brackets

7x + 8 + 2x^2 + 2x + 1 + x^2

Collect like terms

7x+ 2x  + 8 + 1 + 2x^2+ x^2

9x  + 9+ 3x^2

The standard form of a quadratic equation is:

ax^2 + bx + c

So, we have:

9x  + 9+ 3x^2

3x^2 + 9x  +9
