Avoid repeating the question as it can be perplexing.

Given 100 cookies and 20 brownies,
What is the highest number you can divide them equally by?

To find the greatest common factor,
Factor them:
100 = 2*2*5*5
20 = 2*2*5
Thus, the greatest common factor, which is shared between them, is 2*2*5 or 20.

Calculating further, 100/20=5
20/20=1

This means there are 20 groups, each containing 5 cookies and 1 brownie.

You are given a rectangular sheet of cardboard that measures 11 in. by 8.5 in. (see the diagram below). A small square of the sa
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

Terrence's

Step-by-step explanation:

The cut length of the square corresponds to the box height.

1. a

In Anya's approach: 8.5 - 1.5 = 7, 11 - 1.5 = 9.5; with the height being 1.5, the volume calculates as height x length x width = 1.5 x 9.5 x 7 = 99.75 square inches.

Terrence's method: 8.5 - 3 = 5.5, 11 - 3 = 8. Volume = 5.5 x 8 x 3 = 132 square inches. Clearly, 99.75 < 132 square inches, indicating Terrence's approach would yield a larger volume.

1. b

The dimensions of the box rely on the length, width, and height of the cardboard cutout, thus varying cutting measurements for the same cardboard size can produce different box dimensions.

2. Squares are cut from each corner, thus the combined size of the two squares on the cardboard must be less than the shorter cardboard side. The shorter side is 8.5 inches, which divided by 2 results in 4.25 inches, therefore squares cannot exceed this size. If squares are taken out measuring 4.25 inches, it will leave a strip 2.5 inches wide that cannot form a box.

To cut out squares of 5 inches, how you position them can cause overlap or extend beyond the cardboard. While 5 + 5 equals ten, making the longer side of 11 inches adequate, the 8.5 inches side allows zero room for the 10 inches.

Metal Melting Point (°C) Boiling Point (°C) Density in Solid State (g/cm3) Copper 1,083 2,567 8.3–9.0 Lead 327.3 1,750 11.3 Gold
lawyer [12517]
Based on the provided information about the metals' melting point, boiling point, and density, the response is A. The gold sample transitions from liquid to gas at the highest temperature, while the copper sample occupies the most volume. Gold's boiling point is the highest at 2660, and copper has the lowest density, which correlates with a larger volume since density is defined as mass divided by volume.

Joaquin is four more than half Marjorie’s age. Marjorie is also 32 less than three times Joaquin’s age.
babunello [11817]

Answer:

Her age is 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jerry's age be represented as j

Let Marjorie's age be denoted as m

The first part of the question states:

j = 4 + m/2

For the second equation:

m = 3j - 32

Multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

2j = 8 + m

Leading to m = 2j - 8

Set both equations for m equal to each other:

2j - 8 = 3j - 32

By simplifying, we get:

3j - 2j = 32 - 8

Therefore, j = 24

Now substituting back:

m = 2j - 8

m = 2(24) - 8

Thus, m = 48 - 8

Final result: m = 40

Kim is training for a long-distance marathon. Before training, she was able to run one mile in seven minutes. For each of the ne
Zina [12379]

Answer:

0.93 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

During the first week:

Kim ran = 1 mile

Duration for this distance = 1 minute

In the second week:

The distance covered by Kim = 1 mile

The time taken by Kim = 7% less compared to the first week

                         = 1 min - 0.07 min = 0.93 minute

<pSo, she completed 1 mile in 0.93 minute this week.

lawyer [12517]
Utilize the details to create inequalities that reflect each limitation or requirement.

2) Label the variables. 

c: count of color copies
b: count of black-and-white copies

3) Define each constraint:

i) <span>Printing a color copy requires 3 minutes while a black-and-white copy takes 1 minute.
</span><span>
</span><span>3c + b
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>ii) He must print a minimum of 6 copies ⇒ c + b ≥ 6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>iv) Moreover, he must finish the prints within 12 minutes at most ⇒</span>

3c + b ≤ 12
<span />

4) Additional limits include c ≥ 0, and b ≥ 0 (meaning only non-negative counts are valid for each type of copy)

5) Here’s how to illustrate that:

i) For 3c + b ≤ 12: draw the line representing 3c + b = 12 and shade the area above and to the right of this line.

ii) For c + b ≥ 6: draw the line c + b = 6 and shade the area below and to the left of this line.

iii) Given that c ≥ 0 and b ≥ 0, the relevant region is located in the first quadrant.

iv) The concluding area is the overlap of the previously mentioned shaded regions.

v) The graph can be viewed in the attached figure.
