Answer:

The numbers are 21 and 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write out the two numbers from the information in the question

Firstly, the two numbers are greater than 10

The highest common factor of both numbers is 7

While the lowest common multiple of both numbers is 84

Since 7 is a factor of both, the numbers must be multiples of 7

So let us list out the multiples of 7 greater than 10

14, 21 , 28 , 35 , 42 , 49, 56 , 63 , 70 , 77 , 84 ,

The numbers cannot be greater than 84

out of all, only the following is a multiple of 84;

14,21 , 28 , 42 and 84

The correct answers here are 21 and 28

Reason for this is that only the two satisfied the properties given

Ming used the calculations shown to find out how much he would spend on 6 pounds of ground beef if 10 pounds of ground beef cost

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

He determined pounds per dollar by dividing 10 by 25 but wrote the unit rate as a dollar value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{10\ pounds}{\$25} = \frac{10\ pounds}{25} / \frac{\$25}{25} = \frac{0.4}{1}$

$Unit\ Price = 40\ cents$

$40\ cents * 6 = \$2.40$

Required

Determine Ming's error

Ming's error is from here

$\frac{10\ pounds}{\$25} = \frac{10\ pounds}{25} / \frac{\$25}{25} = \frac{0.4}{1}$

He calculated the unit rate as pound per dollar.

So, after calculating the unit rate, the unit should be:

$Unit\ Rate = 0.4\ pound/\$$

But instead, he solved as:

$Unit\ Rate = \$0.4/ pound$

<em>Hence, (a) is correct</em>

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$P(1\ and\ 2) = 0.3309$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Red = 3$

$Blue = 4$

$Orange=10$

Required

Probability of selecting 2 orange marbles

The total number of marbles is:

$Total = Red + Blue + Orange$

$Total = 3 + 4 + 10$

$Total = 17$

The probability that the first selection is orange is:

$P(1) = \frac{10}{17}$

Because it is a selection without replacement, the number of orange marbles and the total number of marbles would decrease by 1, respectively.

So, the probability that the selection is orange is:

$P(2) = \frac{10-1}{17-1}$

$P(2) = \frac{9}{16}$

The required probability is:

$P(1\ and\ 2) = P(1) * P(2)$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{10}{17} * \frac{9}{16}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{10*9}{17*16}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = \frac{90}{272}$

$P(1\ and\ 2) = 0.3309$
