Barnes and noble needs to ship 14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books. The store can only pack one genre of book in each box, and they must pack the same number of books in each box. What is the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box?

Answers

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  14 mystery books, 12 science-fiction books, and 8 historical-fiction books needs to b shipped.

If they want to pack one genre of book in each box such that they pack same number of books in each box.

Then, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box

= GCD(14,12,8)

Since, 14 = 2 x 7

12 = 2 x 2 x 3

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

GCD(14,12,8)=2

Hence, the greatest number of books Barnes and Noble can pack in each box = 2

Why is it that when comparing a squares area with a rectangles area, with the SAME PERIMETER, that the square has a greater area?

Answers

s = side length of square

4s = perimeter of square

L = length of rectangle

W = width of rectangle

P = 2L+2W = perimeter of rectangle

4s = 2L+2W .... since we want the perimeters the same

4s = 2(L+W)

s = 0.5(L+W)

s^2 = (0.5(L+W))^2 ... square both sides

s^2 = 0.25(L+W)^2

The last equation shows the area of the square, s^2, in terms of L and W. This way we can connect the square to the rectangle.

-----------------------------------

The area of the rectangle is LW

Let's subtract this from the area of the square and see what we get

A = area of square = s^2

B = area of rectangle = LW

C = difference in area

C = A - B

C = s^2 - LW

C = 0.25(L+W)^2 - LW

C = 0.25(L^2+2LW+W^2) - LW

C = 0.25L^2+0.5LW+0.25W^2-LW

C = 0.25L^2-0.5LW+0.25W^2

C = 0.25(L^2-2LW+W^2)

C = 0.25(L-W)^2

Regardless of what we pick for L and W, the expression (L-W)^2 is always positive. Squaring a negative number leads to a positive result.

So C is always positive as long as [tex]L \ne W[/tex]

If C > 0, and C = A - B, then

C > 0

A-B > 0 .... replace C with A-B

A > B .... add B to both sides

This shows the square area is always larger than the rectangle.

Again this only works if L and W are different values. If L = W, then the argument falls apart because the rectangle becomes the square.

We make [tex]L \ne W[/tex] to have a nonsquare rectangle.

Stephen and Karen are getting the floor redone in their house. Company A charges $215 and $0.50 per square foot to install carpet. Company B charges $100 and $0.75 per square foot to install carpet.

Determine which company would be a better choice if Stephen and Karen were having 400 square feet of carpet installed. Justify your answer using
math

Answers

Answer:

Company B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given. That :

Company A:

Initial charge = $215

Charge per square foot = 0.50

Company B:

Initial charge = $100

Charge per square foot = 0.75

Which company if installing 400 square feet of carpet :

Company A:

Total bill:

$215 + 0.50(400) =$415

Company B:

Total bill:

$100 + 0.75(400) = $400

Hence, Company B will be a better option as the total cost is cheaper than company As cost.

Consider the equation and its solution. 8 (x minus 2) = 64. 8 x minus 16 = 64. 8 x = 80. X = 10. Which property is used in the last step to find that x = 10? Distributive property addition property of equality subtraction property of equality division property of equality

Answers

Answer:

Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation and its solution. 8 (x minus 2) = 64.

8 x minus 16 = 64.

8 x = 80.

x = 10.

Which property is used in the last step to find that x = 10

The property used in the last step to find that x = 10 is called the DIVISION PROPERTY OF EQUALITY

The Division property of equality states that , when two sides of a quadratic equation are divide by the same integer that is greater than zero, both sides will be equal to one another

Let c be the integer greater than zero

ac = bc

Divide both sides by c

a = b

From the above question

8 x = 80

This is also written as:

8x = 8 × 10

Division property of equality

Divide both sides by 8

Hence,

x = 10

Answer:

division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

since the equation before our answer was a multiplication equation, you must counteract that with the division property of equality.

Sharonda uses a blend of dark chocolate and milk chocolate to make the ice cream topping at her restaurant.

Let ddd be the number of kilograms of dark chocolate she buys and mmm be the number of kilograms of milk chocolate she buys.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

ATQ,

Let d be the number of kilograms of dark chocolate she buys and m be the number of kilograms of milk chocolate she buys.

She needs to buy 120 kg of chocolate in total for her next order, and her recipe calls for twice the amount of dark chocolate as milk chocolate.

So,

m = 2d .....(1)

m + d = 120 ...(2)

We can also solve the above equations,

Put m = 2d in equation (2)

2d + d = 120

3d=120

d = 40

Put d = 40 in equation (1)

m = 2(40)

m = 80

Hence, she will need 40 kg of dark chocolate and 80 kg of milk chocolate.

Answer:

d+m=120

d=2m

Suppose at age 22 mort starts investing 200$ at the end of each month into a savings plan with an apr of 2.9% and he continues to do so through the next 43 years ( planning to retire at age 65). How much will be in his savigns plan towards retirement? How much of his balance was from the interested loans

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Monthly Payment (PMT) = 200 at the end of each period

interest rate = 2.9% = 0.029/12 = 0.0024166

Period (n) = 43 years x 12 = 516

Using the future value(FV) of an ordinary annuity:

FV = PMT[(1 + r)^n - 1] / r

FV = 200[(1 + 0.0024166)^516 - 1] / 0.0024166

FV = 200[(1.0024166)^516 - 1] / 0.0024166

FV = 200(2.4745372) / 0.0024166

FV = 204,794.93

Amount which will be in saving plan towards retirement = $204,794.93

Interest amount :

$204,794.93 - total monthly deposits

$204,794.93 - (200 * 516)

$204,794.93 - $103,200

= $101,594.93
