Answer:

Greatest sack = 42

1 candy bar and 3 lollipops

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Candy bars with C and Lollipops with L

C = 42

L= 126

Solving (a): Greatest number of treat sacks

To solve this, we simply calculate the GCF of C and L

42 = 2^1 * 3^1 * 7^1

126 = 2^1 * 3^2 * 7^1

Hence, the GCF is

GCF = 2^1 * 3^1 * 7^1

GCF = 42

Hence, greatest number of sack is 42

Solving (b): Number of treat in each sack.

To do this, we simply divide the number of C and L by the calculated GCF

For C:

Treats = \frac{C}{GCF}

Treats = \frac{42}{42}

Treats = 1

For L:

Treats = \frac{L}{GCF}

Treats = \frac{126}{42}

Treats = 3

<em>Hence, 1 candy bar and 3 lollipops</em>

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

A dependent variable is a factor that changes because of procedures conducted on the independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a cause and effect analogy, the independent variable is the causal variable. The independent variable or variables are the variables on which what is being measured, has no effect, and it is the variable the investigator manipulates to find the effect on the dependent variable.

The dependent variable are the variables that shows he effect of the changes made and manipulations to the independent variable. The dependent variable is therefore, the effect variable

Therefore, the correct option is ' A dependent variable is a factor that changes because of procedures conducted on the independent variable'

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

x+ 2y ≥  240  is the linear inequality in standard form for this situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hot chocolates sold = x

Cost of each hot chocolate = $1

Let the number of apple ciders sold = y

Cost of each hot chocolate = $2

So, the total amount earned =  x ( $1)  + y ($2)

Also, the total amount earned should at least be $240

Hence, according to the question

x+ 2y ≥  240  is the linear inequality in standard form for this situation.
