Answer: 30 baskets.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

You need to find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

240 (apples) = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5

150 (pears) = 2 x 3 x 5 x 5

GCF (240, 150) = 2 x 3 x 5

                         = 30

You can make 30 baskets containing 240/30 = 8 apples and 150/30 = 5 pears.

A linear function that represents the number of hot dogs purchased at a football game is compared to a different linear function
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Key features: the functions can not be parallels, this means that their respective slopes can not be equal or multiple to the other

Step-by-step explanation:

Take for instance 2 linear functions,  and

If they intersect in some point in the space, say that is

Then (x1,y1)=(x3,y3), (x2.y2)= (x3,y3)

So, we can compare the two functions and get the following result;

It tells us that if M=m, we get an error, meaning that the functions are in fact parallels and there is no way that they meet in some point.

hope this helps!

Addie walked 2 1 2 miles in 45 minutes. Suzie covered 2 2 5 miles in 2 3 of an hour. Which girl walked faster? By how much?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Suzie walks faster by 0.27 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Addie walked 2\frac{1}{2} miles in 45 minutes and Suzie covered 2\frac{2}{5} miles in \frac{2}{3} of an hour.

So, Addie walked 2.5 miles in 45 minutes i.e. \frac{45}{60} = 0.75 hours.

Therefore, the walking speed of Addie is \frac{2.5}{0.75} = 3.33 miles per hour.

Again, Suzie covered 2\frac{2}{5} i.e. 2.4 miles in \frac{2}{3} i.e. 0.67 hours.

So, the walking speed of Suzie is \frac{2.4}{0.67} = 3.6 miles per hour.

Hence, Suzie walks faster by (3.6 - 3.33) = 0.27 miles per hour. (Answer)

A parcel has a mass of 500g. Calculate its weight. (Assume the gravitational field strength is 10N/kg).
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The weight of the parcel is 5 N

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

 W=mg

where

W ----> weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

m ----> mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

g ----> gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

In this problem we have

g=10\ N/kg

m=500\ g

Remember that

1\ kg=1,000\ g

To convert g to kg

Divide by 1,000

so

m=500\ g=500/1,000=0.5\ kg

substitute the values in the equation

W=(0.5)(10)=5\ N

therefore

The weight of the parcel is 5 N

For ΔABC, ∠A = 4x - 10, ∠B = 5x + 10, and ∠C = 7x + 20. If ΔABC undergoes a dilation by a scale factor of 1 3 to create ΔA'B'C'
VLD [36.1K]
We know that the angles of a triangle sum to 180°.  For ΔABC, this means we have:
(4x-10)+(5x+10)+(7x+20)=180

Combining like terms,
16x+20=180

Subtracting 20 from both sides:
16x=160

Dividing both sides by 16:
x=10
This means ∠A=4*10-10=40-10=30°; ∠B=5*10+10=50+10=60°; and ∠C=7*10+20=70+20=90.

For ΔA'B'C', we have
(2x+10)+(8x-20)+(10x-10)=180

Combining like terms, 
20x-20=180

Adding 20 to both sides:
20x=200

Dividing both sides by 20:
x=10

This gives us ∠A'=2*10+10=20+10=30°; ∠B'=8*10-20=80-20=60°; and ∠C'=10*10-10=100-10=90°.

Since the angle are all congruent, ΔABC~ΔA'B'C' by AAA.
