18. A shelf holds fewer than 50 cans. If all of the
cans on this shelf were put into stacks of
five cans each, no cans would remain. If the
same cans were put into stacks of three cans
each, one can would remain. What is the
greatest number of cans that could be on
the shelf?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of cans are fewer than 50.

Let the number of cans = [tex]x[/tex]

It is given that no cans remain if they are put in the stacks of five cans each.

i.e. number of cans are a multiple of 5.

Let us have a look at the numbers in decreasing order which are multiples of 5 and are lesser than 50.

45, 40, 35, 30, ......

Now, let us check the numbers one by one.

If [tex]x=[/tex] 45,

Now, they are placed on stacks of three each and one can remains.

So, the remainder when [tex]x[/tex] is divided by 3 will be 1.

But when 45 is divided by 3, remainder is 0.

Now, let us check next greatest number, which is 40.

When 40 is divided by 3, the remainder is 1.

Therefore, greater number of cans can be 40.

4x^2 - 18x - 36

Answers

Answer: 2(2x + 3)(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation: For any factoring problem you do, your first

task will be to determine if a GCF exists for the original polynomial.

If a GCF does exist, it must be factored out as the first step to the problem.

In the problem you see here, the 3 terms in

the original polynomial have a GCF of 2.

So a 2 must be factored out as your first step.

This leaves you with 2(2x² - 9x - 18).

This does not make your life a whole lot easier however

because you still have a coefficient on the x squared term.

Factoring from here, you get 2(2x + 3)(x - 6).

Answer:

2(x - 6)(2x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few steps to factoring depending on the polynomial.

Step 1. Factor our a common factor if possible.

Every term is divisible by 2, so factor out a 2.

4x^2 - 18x - 36 =

= 2(2x^2 - 9x - 18)

Step 2. We need to factor the quadratic trinomial.

Now we have a quadratic trinomial, in which the x^2 term is not plain x^2, but it has a coefficient of 2.

Our polynomial is of the form ax^2 + bx + c, with "a" not equal to 1.

We have 2x^2 - 9x - 18, so we have a = 2, b = -9, c = -18.

We can try guessing, but instead, I will use the "ac" method.

Step A. Multiply coefficients ac:

ac = 2(-18) = -36

Step B. Now we need two numbers that add to b and multiply to ac.

We need two numbers that add to -9 and multiply to -36.

The numbers are -12 and 3 since (-12)(3) = -36, and -12 + 3 = -9.

We now break up the middle term, -9x, using these two numbers.

= 2(2x^2 - 12x + 3x - 18)

Now we factor by grouping. Factor a common factor out of the first two terms, and factor a common factor out of the last two terms.

= 2[2x(x - 6) + 3(x - 6)]

x - 6 is a common factor inside the brackets, so we factor it out inside the brackets.

= 2[(x - 6)(2x + 3)]

= 2(x - 6)(2x + 3)

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with triangle ABC with side BC lying on line n.

Draw a line through point A parallel to line n, and call it line m.

Angles 1 and 3 are alternate interior angle of parallel lines and are congruent.

Angle 2 and 4 are alternate interior angles of parallel lines and are congruent.

The sum of the measures of angles angles 1, BAC, and 2 is 180 since they lie on a line.

m<1 + m<BAC + m<2 = 180

Now we substitute in the angles we know are congruent by alternate interior angles (written above).

m<3 + m<BAC + m<4 = 180

Solve each equation 9-4(2x-1)=45

Answers

I think it is done like this but I am not sure.

Simplifying

9 + -4(2x + -1) = 45

Reorder the terms:

9 + -4(-1 + 2x) = 45

9 + (-1 * -4 + 2x * -4) = 45

9 + (4 + -8x) = 45

Combine like terms: 9 + 4 = 13

13 + -8x = 45

Solving

13 + -8x = 45

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-13' to each side of the equation.

13 + -13 + -8x = 45 + -13

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0

0 + -8x = 45 + -13

-8x = 45 + -13

Combine like terms: 45 + -13 = 32

-8x = 32

Divide each side by '-8'.

x = -4

Simplifying

x = -4

The solution to the equation 9 - 4(2x - 1) = 45 is x = -4.

We have,

Distribute the -4 to the terms inside the parentheses:

9 - 4(2x - 1) = 45

9 - 8x + 4 = 45

Combine like terms:

13 - 8x = 45

Move the constant term to the other side of the equation by subtracting 13 from both sides:

13 - 8x - 13 = 45 - 13

-8x = 32

Divide both sides of the equation by -8 to isolate the variable:

(-8x) / (-8) = 32 / (-8)

x = -4

Therefore,

The solution to the equation 9 - 4(2x - 1) = 45 is x = -4.

Health officials in Parsnipville are concerned about the recent outbreak of the flu. While scientists are working hard to find a vaccine, the town leaders are turning to you to predict how many people will be sick over time. They hope to find a vaccine in a week. Here are the facts: The epidemic started on Day 0 when Velma and Stanley returned from their exotic jungle vacation with symptoms of the flu. Each day, a sick person infects two additional people. The town of Parsnipville has 3800 citizens.

Answers

Answer:

4372 people would have been sick over time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the vaccine would be found in a week, then the over time is a week (7 days). Each day, a sick person infects two additional people.

Number of people infected by Velma can be predicted as follows:

Day 1 - 2, Day 2 - 6, Day 3 - 18, Day 4 - 54, Day 5 - 162, Day 6 - 486, Day 7 - 1458

Number of people infected by Velma = 1458 + 486 + 162 + 54 + 18 + 6 + 2

                                                       = 2186

Also, number of people infected by Stanley can be predicted as follows:

Day 1 - 2, Day 2 - 6, Day 3 - 18, Day 4 - 54, Day 5 - 162, Day 6 - 486, Day 7 - 1458

Number of people infected by Stanley = 1458 + 486 + 162 + 54 + 18 + 6 + 2

                                                       = 2186

Total number of people than can be infected over time = 2186 + 2186

                                                      = 4372

Therefore, the predictable number of infected people over time would be 4372. All citizens of Parsnipville would have been infected before the vaccine is available.

The total rainfall for two days was 14.6 mm. The first day's total was 4.5 mm less than the second
day's. How much rain fell on each day in cm?​

Answers

Answer:

first day = 5.05mm = 0.505cm

second day = 9.55mm = 0.955cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent first day

Let y represent second day

x + y = 14.6

x = y - 4.5

(y - 4.5) + y = 14.6

2y - 4.5 = 14.6

2y = 14.6 + 4.5

2y = 19.1

Divide both sides by coefficient of y which is 2

y = 9.55

Substituting value of y in the equation x + y = 14.6

x + 9.55 = 14.6

x = 14.6 - 9.55

x = 5.05

To convert the values in mm to cm you divide them by 10 since 1cm=10mm
