Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What this question is asking of you is what is the greatest common divisor of 12 and 15. Or, what is the biggest number that divides both 12 and 15.
in order to find this we have to split each number into it's prime components.
for 12 they are 2,2 and 3 (
2
⋅
2
⋅
3
=
12
)
and for 15 they are 3 and 5 (
3
⋅
5
=
15
)
Out of those two groups (2,2,3) and (3,5) the only thing in common is 3, so 3 is the greatest common divisor. That tells us that the greatest number of groups that can exist and have the same number of girls and the same number of boys for each group is 3.
Now to find out how many girls and boys there are going to be in each group we divide the totals by 3, so:
12
3
=
4
girls per group, and
15
3
=
5
boys per group.
(just as a thought exercise, if there were 16 boys, the divisors would have been (2,2,3) and (2,2,2,2), leaving us with 4 groups [

] of 3 girls [12/4] and 4 boys [16/4] )

i said so
X=2 shown in the work below.
Answer:
6(9+3)
Explanation:
Add 9 and 3 which is 9 + 3
THEN multiply by 6 which is 6(9 + 3)
I put parentheses because it's sayings to add first and then multiply!
Answer:
Yes, B
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes the data is linear because there is a constant rate of change.
For x or the input the rate of change is plus 2
For y or the output the rate of change is plus 4
y/x is your slope so 4/2=2
and the only equation with a slope of 2 is B
