Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael must find the smallest number possible that can divide 60 and 45 then take the two quotients after dividing the 2 types of cookies by the smallest number possible.

2 is not possible as 45 is an odd number

3 can divide both 60 and 45

60/3 = 20 oatmeal cookies in each container.

45/3 = 15 chocolate chip cookies in each container.

A coordinate map of the local grocery store is shown below. Ice cream is located at the point (-8,0)(−8,0)left parenthesis, minu
Alona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If on the coordinate map, ice cream is located at the point (-8,0) and sprinkles are located at the point (-8,6), we can find the distance between the coordinate points using the formula;

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given

x1 = -8, y1 = 0, x2 = -8 and y2 = 6

Substitute

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

D = √(-8-(-8))²+(6-0)²

D = √0²+6²

D = √36

D = 6units

Hence the distance between the coordinate points is 6units

Find the length of the line PA.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

RO divides the rectangle into two congruent right triangles.

The area of the one triangle is equal half area of the rectangle.

Calculate the area of rectangle:

A_R=lw\\l=12,\ w=5\\\\A_R=12\cdot5=60

The area of right triangle:

A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}A_R\to A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot60=30

Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of RO:

|RO|^2=5^2+12^2\\\\|RO|^2=25+144\\\\|RO|^2=169\to|RO|=\sqrt{169}\to|RO|=13

The formula of an area of this right triangle is:

A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}|RO||PA|

Therefore we have the equation:

\dfrac{1}{2}(13)|PA|=30\qquad|\cdot2\\\\13|PA|=60\quad|:13\\\\|PA|=\dfrac{60}{13}\\\\|PA|\approx4.62

What are the coordinates of the circumcenter of this triangle?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The coordinates of the circumcenter of this triangle are (3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumcenter is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersect

we have the coordinates

A(-2,5),B(-2,-1),C(8,-1)

step 1

Find the midpoint AB

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M=(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

substitute the values

M=(\frac{-2-2}{2},\frac{5-1}{2})

M_A_B=(-2,2)

step 2

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to the segment AB that passes through the point (-2,2)

Is a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis)

y=2 -----> equation A

step 3

Find the midpoint BC

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M=(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

substitute the values

M=(\frac{-2+8}{2},\frac{-1-1}{2})

M_B_C=(3,-1)

step 4

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to the segment BC that passes through the point (3,-1)

Is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

x=3 -----> equation B

step 5

Find the circumcenter

The circumcenter is the intersection point between the equation A and equation B

y=2 -----> equation A

x=3 -----> equation B

The intersection point is (3,2)

therefore

The coordinates of the circumcenter of this triangle are (3,2)
