Hector is dividing students into groups for a nature hike. He wants to divide the boys and girls so that each group has the same number of both boys and girls. There are 21 boys and 56 girls signed up for the hike. Into how many groups can the students be divided? How many boys and how many girls will be in each group?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The students can be divided into 7 groups.

Each group will have 3 boys and 8 girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 21 boys and 56 girls.

To divide them so that each group has the same number of both boys and girls.

We find GCD(21,56).

21 = 3 x 7

56 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 7

GCD (21,56) = 7

So, the students can be divided into 7 groups.

Number of girls in each group = [tex]\dfrac{56}{7}=8[/tex]

Number of boys in each group = [tex]\dfrac{21}{7}=3[/tex]

So, each group will have 3 boys and 8 girls.

The sum of the 8th & 4th of an Ap is 24 and sum of and sum of 6th & 10th term is 44 Find the Ap​

Answers

Given:

Sum of 8th & 4th terms of an AP = 24

Sum of 6th & 10th terms = 44

Find:

A.P.

Solution:

We know that,

nth term of an AP = a + (n - 1)d

Hence,

⟹ a + (8 - 1)d + a + (4 - 1)d = 24

⟹ a + 7d + a + 3d = 24

⟹ 2a + 10d = 24 -- equation (1)

Similarly,

⟹ a + 5d + a + 9d = 44

⟹ 2a + 14d = 44 -- equation (2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 2a + 14d - (2a + 10d) = 44 - 24

⟹ 2a + 14d - 2a - 10d = 20

⟹ 4d = 20

⟹ d = 20/4

⟹ d = 5

Substitute the value of d in equation (1).

⟹ 2a + 10(5) = 24

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = - 26

⟹ a = - 26/2

⟹ a = - 13

We know,

General form of an AP is a , a + d , a + 2d...

Hence,

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 13 + 5 , - 13 + 2(5)...

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 8 , - 3....

I hope it will help you.

Answers

Answer:

What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy?

The least number of cups of plates and cups she can buy is 24

How many packs of plates?

3 packs of plates

How many packs of cups?

2 packs of cups

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy?

We solve this using the Lowest Common Multiple method

The L.C.M of 8 and 12

Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40

Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48

Therefore,

LCM(8, 12) = 24

Hence, the least number of cups and plates she can buy is 24

How many packs of plates?

Plates are sold in packs of eight

Hence: 24 ÷ 8 = 3 packs of plates

How many packs of cups?

Cups are sold in packs of 12

Hence: 24 ÷ 12 = 2 packs of cups

there are 48 newborn girls in a hospital nursery. For every 3 girls, there are 2 boys. How many newborn babies are in the nursery?

Answers

Hi! I believe your answer is 80 newborn babies. To find the number of boys, divide 48 by 3 (since it is for every 3 girls) and you'll get 16. Next, multiply 16 and 2 (for every 2 boys) and you'll get 32. Lastly, add 48 and 32 and you'll get the number of newborn babies in the nursery (80). I hope this helps you! Good luck and have a great day. ❤️✨

Number of total newborn babies = 80

What is ratio?

A ratio can be defined as the relationship or comparison between two numbers of the same unit to check how bigger is one number than the other one.

Given,

Total number of girls = 48

For every 3 girls, there are 2 boys.

Ratio of girls to boy = 3/2

Let there are x boys,

then,

48/x = 3/2

3x = 96

x = 32

Number of boys = 32

Total newborn babies = Number of girls + number of boys

                                     = 48 + 32 = 80

Hence, 80 newborn babies are in nursery.

The total cost after tax to repair Deborah's computer is represented by 0.09(60h)+60h, where h represents the number of hours it takes to repair Deborah's computer. What part of the expression represents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

0.09(60h)

Step-by-step explanation:

The part that represents the tax is 0.09.

This is because, we can rewrite the sum as;

Amount of tax + Total cost for the number of hours

Now, the amount of tax can only be a percentage of the total

We can write 0.09 as 9/100

This can be interpreted as 9% of the total amount

So therefore we can rewrite the amount as;

9% of 60h + 60h

So the part that represents the amount of tax Deborah has to pay is 0.09(60h)

The regular price of a baseball hat is $15.65. If Julio buys the baseball hat on sale for 20% off the regular price, how much change will he receive after paying with $20?

Answers

Begin by multiplying $15.65 by 0.20 to find what 20% of the regular price is. This gives you 3.13, which in this situation means $3.13.
To find the price with discount subtract 15.65-3.13. This gives you $12.52.
To find out the change, subtract 20-12.52. This gives you $7.48.
So, he will receive $7.48 in change.

A ball is thrown strait up from the top of a 64 foot tall building with an initial speed of 48 feet per second. The height of the ball as a function of time can be modeled by the function h(t)=-16t^2+48t+64. At what other time will the ball be at a height of 64 feet? How long will it take for f ball to reach its maximum height? What is he maximum height reached by the ball? How long willlit take for the ball to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t)=-16t^2+48t+64

Find when h(t) = 64

64 = -16t^2+48t+64

Subtract 64 from each side

0 =  -16t^2+48t

Factor

0 = -16t( t-3)

Using the zero product property

-16t =0    t-3 =0

t=0 and t=3

Other than at t=0,  so at t=3 seconds

How long will it take for f ball to reach its maximum height?

Find the vertex

t = -b/2a = -48 / ( 2 * -16) = -48/ -32 = 1.5 seconds

It will reach the maximum height at 1.5 seconds

What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

The height will be

h(1.5) = -16*(1.5)^2+48(1.5)+64

       = -36+72+64

       = 100

The maximum height is 100 ft

How long will it take for the ball to hit the ground?

h(t) =0

0=-16t^2+48t+64

Factor

0 = -16( t^2 - 3t -4)

0=- 16( t-4) (t+1)

Using the zero product property

t-4=0     t+1=0

t =4     t = -1

Since time cannot be negative

t=4 seconds

Katie wants to buy a bracelet. She only has $30 to spend. She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%. If the sales tax is 7%, will she have enough to buy the bracelet? If so, how much money will Katie have left? If not, how much more money will she need?

Answers

Given :

Money Katie has, M = $30.

She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%.

The sales tax is 7%.

To Find :

Will she have enough to buy the bracelet.

Solution :

Original price = $45 .

Price after discount = $( 45 - 45×0.35) = $29.25 .

Selling Price = $( 29.25 + 29.25×0.07 ) = $31.2975 .

Since, selling price is greater than $30.

Money needed = $( 31.2975 - 30 ) = $1.2975 .

Therefore, Katie will not buy the bracelet.
