find the least length of a rod which can be cut into exactly epual strips,each of either 36cm or 42cm in length​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

so, we need to find the smallest common multiple of 36 and 42.

that is the smallest number I can divide both by 36 and 42 without remain.

let's use the method of basic prime factors (we start with the smallest fitting prime number - 2 is a prime number too - and divide as often as possible, then continue with the next bigger prime number, until there is nothing left to divide) :

36 / 2 = 18

18 / 2 = 9

9 / 3 = 3

3 / 3 = 1 finished

therefore,

36 = 2×2×3×3

42 / 2 = 21

21 / 3 = 7

7 / 5 does not work

7 / 7 = 1 finished

therefore,

42 = 2×3×7

to find the smallest common multiple (SCM) we check the maximum length of each prime factor sequence.

and we see 2 times 2, 2 times 3 and 1 time 7.

so, the SCM = 2×2×3×3×7 = 252.

there is no smaller number that can be divided by both 36 and 42 without remain.

so, the rod must be at least 252 cm long to cut it into equally long pieces of either 36 cm (7 pieces) or 42 cm (6 pieces).

the cube root of -12 is -2.28942849 which is around -2

Step-by-step explanation:

What’s the next 3 terms of the sequence -2,8,-32?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric series.

First term = - 2

Ratio = second term ÷ first term = 8 ÷ (-2) = -4

Next three terms are:

-32 *(-4) = 128

128*(-4) = - 512

-512*(-4) = 2048

Answer:

The next 3 terms would be 128, -512, 2048

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with a Geometric Sequence we use this formula [tex]a_{n}=a_{1} *r^{n-1}[/tex]

Since the first term([tex]a_{1}[/tex]) is -2 and for us to find R we have to divide 8 by -2 = -4

So we would rewrite the equations to find the next three terms as

[tex]a_{4}=-2*-4^{4-1}=-2*-4^3=128[/tex]

[tex]a_{5}=-2*-4^{5-1}=-2*-4^4=-512[/tex]

[tex]a_{6}=-2*-4^{6-1}=-2*-4^5=2048[/tex]

A restaurant allows groups to rent a private room in the restaurant for $50. This is in addition to the cost of food which is $10 per person.

Use the Ray tool to make a graph that shows C, the total cost for a group of p people to eat in the rented private room. Graph the ray by plotting two points. The first point selected must be the endpoint of the ray. The second point can be any other point on the ray.

Answers

Answer:

See attached

Step-by-step explanation:

  First, our y-intercept must be $50 because no matter how many people come, there will be the cost of the room for $50. Then, for every person that comes, the price will increase by $10. Since the y-axis is going by tens, this will look like a 1/1 slope.

  The first point is at (0, 50) and you can see the rest of the ray graphed

If you know one of the sides its easy to find the missing ones.

Given l = 12s : 12 : h = 1 : √3 : 2CB = s = 12 / √3 = 12√3/3 = 4√3 AB = h = 2s = 2*4√3 = 8√3

A helicopter floats 120m above a helipad, a dog is 85m from the helipad, if the dog could fly, how far would it have to fly to get to helicopter?

Answers

If the dog could fly, it would need to fly 147 meters to catch the helicopter

This is a rather easy and straightforward question. We are going to solve it using Pythagoras theorem. We can interpret the question to be in a triangle where the height of the helicopter above the helipad and away from the dog is the right angle. This also means that the distance needed, between the dog and the helicopter is the hypotenuse.

Using pythagoras theorem, we have

120² + 85² = c²

c² = 14400 + 7225

c² = 21625

c = [tex]\sqrt{21625}[/tex]

c = ±147 meters.

Since distance cant be in the negative, our answer is 147 m

A high school teacher teaches three classes per day. Her first class has double the number of students as her
second class, while her third class has 5 more students than her second class. In total, she teaches 65 students.
The equation 2x + x + (x + 5) = 65 represents this scenario, where x is the number of students in her
second class.
How many students are in her second class?

Answers

Answer: 15 students in her second class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A, B, and C stand for the number of students in each class. See the attached table.

The column labelled "Students" is formed by assinging B to the second class and finding how the other two classes relate to B. Class A has twice as many students as class B, so A = 2B. Class C has 5 more students than B, so C = B+5.

The total students amount to 65, whcih is the sum of A, B, and C:

A + B + C = 65

Substitute the values of A and C into this equation:

A + B + C = 65

2B + B + (B+5) = 65

4B + 5 = 65

4B = 60

B = 16

Use B=16 and solve for the other two classes (dotted blue line).

Identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) for 3x + 4y = 9.

Answers

Answer:

slope= -¾

[tex]y - intercept = 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

3x +4y= 9

Let's rewrite the equation into the form of y= mx +b (known as slope-intercept form), where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Keep the y term on the left-hand side of the equation and move all the other terms to the right-hand side.

4y= -3x +9

For the coefficient of y to be 1, divide both sides of the equation by 4.

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{4} x + \frac{9}{4} [/tex]

[tex]y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

[tex]slope = - \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

[tex]y - intercept = 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

Two architects bid for a small government project, both

Designs bids $250 plus $45 per hour, while Super Structures
bids $100 plus $60 per hour. At what point in time will the
two companies charge exactly the same amount?

Answers

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total number of hours

Amazing design total charge = 45x+250

super structures total charge = 60x+100

both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals

45x+250=60x+100

60x-45x=250-100

15x=150

x=10

therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount

What is Transitive property?

A transitive relation is defined as a homogeneous relation R over the set A, where the set contains the elements such as x, y and z, such that R relates x to y and y to z, then R also relates x to z.

As in statement 3 we have,

∠2 = ∠3

and in statement 5 we also have

∠3 = ∠7

So, by using transitive property we can write,

If a = b and b = c,

then a = c

Hence, m∠2 = m∠7 using transitive property.
