Cam went to the beach and collected seashells. when he put them into 2 piles, 3 piles, and then 5 equal piles. he didn't have any extra. when he put them into 4 piles, he had exactly 2 extra. how many seashells could cam have collected?

Answers

Answer 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that the number of seashells is divisible by 5, 3, and 2, but not 4. One thing I like to do to find this number is to multiply together all of the numbers it is divisible by. This product will be divisible by all of the numbers because you multiplied them all together! Let's do this below.

2×3×5=30

We see that our answer is 30, and it is divisible by 2, 3, and 5. 30 also isn't divisible by four. If you tried to do so, you would get 28 (4×7) with a remainder of two.

Therefore, Cam could have collected 30 shells.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answers

Answer:

y = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the ratio: [tex]\frac{x_1}{y_1} = \frac{x_2}{y_2}[/tex]

Let:

[tex](x_1 , y_1) = (-4 , 10)\\(x_2 , y_2) = (12 , y)\\[/tex]

Plug in the corresponding terms to the corresponding variables:

[tex]\frac{-4}{10} = \frac{12}{y}[/tex]

First, cross multiply.

[tex](-4 * y) = (10 * 12)\\-4y = 10 * 12\\-4y = 120[/tex]

Next, isolate the variable, y. Divide -4 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]\frac{-4y}{-4} = \frac{120}{-4}\\y = \frac{120}{-4}\\y = -30[/tex]

-30 is your answer for y.

what is the perimeter of an equilateral triangular lamina of side length 12 cm​

Answers

Answer:

It is 36 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In equilateral triangle, all sides are equal.

[tex]{ \sf{perimeter = side + side + side}}[/tex]

but side = 12 cm

[tex] { \sf{p = (12 + 12 + 12)}} \\ { \sf{p = 36 \: cm}}[/tex]

Answer: Perimeter = 36 cm

Concept:

Here, we need to know how to find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle.

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length.

Perimeter (equilateral triangle) = 3s

s = side length

Solve:

Given information

Side length = 12 cm

Given expression

Perimeter = 3s

Substitute values into the expression

Perimeter = 3 (12)

Simplify by multiplication

Perimeter= [tex]\boxed{36cm}[/tex]

If UW = 9x - 9, what is UW in units?

36

Answers

Answer: UW is 36 units long

Explanation:
UW is composed of UV and VW, which we have values for. So, let’s make an equation.

(2x - 4) + (4x + 10) = 9x - 9

Solve the left side

6x + 6 = 9x - 9

Subtract 6 from both sides

6x = 9x - 15

Subtract 9x from both sides

-3x = -15

Divide both sides by -3

x = 5

Plug 5 into the equation for UW.

9(5) - 9

45 - 9

36
The answer is 36 Uw in units .

A box of 8 cellphones contains two yellow cellphones and six green cellphones. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
a. If two cellphones are randomly selected from the box without replacement, what is the probability that both cellphones selected will be green?
b. If two cellphones are randomly selected from the box without replacement, what is the probability there will be one green cellphone and one yellow cellphone selected?
c. If three cellphones are selected with replacement (the first cellphone is returned to the box after it is selected), what is the probability that all three will be yellow?
d. If you were sampling with replacement (the first cellphone is returned to the box after it is selected), what would be the answers to (a) and (b)?

Answers

Probabilities are used to determine the chance of an event. The following are the summary of the solution.

The probability that the two selected cellphones are green (without replacement) is 15/28The probability that one green and one yellow is selected (without replacement) is 3/7The probability that all three cellphones are yellow (with replacement) is 1/64The probability that the two cellphones are green (with replacement) is 9/16The probability that one green and one yellow is selected (with replacement) is 3/8

Given that:

[tex]n = 8[/tex]

[tex]G = 6[/tex] --- Green

[tex]Y = 2[/tex] --- Yellow

(a) Probability that the two cellphones are green (without replacement).

Since the cellphone is not replaced, the probability is calculated as follows:

[tex]Pr = \frac Gn \times \frac{G - 1}{n-1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = \frac 68 \times \frac{6 - 1}{8-1}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 68 \times \frac 57[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{30}{56}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{15}{28}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the two cellphones are green (without replacement) is 15/28

(b) Probability that one green and one yellow is selected (without replacement).

Since the cellphone is not replaced, the probability is calculated as follows:

[tex]Pr = \frac Gn \times \frac{Y}{n-1} + \frac Yn \times \frac{G}{n-1}[/tex]  ---- The subtraction means the cellphones are not replaced

This gives

[tex]Pr = \frac 68 \times \frac{2}{8-1} + \frac 28 \times \frac{6}{8-1}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 34 \times \frac{2}{7} + \frac 14 \times \frac{6}{7}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 32 \times \frac17 + \frac 12 \times \frac 37[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{3}{14} + \frac{3}{14}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Pr = \frac{3+3}{14}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{6}{14}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{3}{7}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that one green and one yellow is selected (without replacement) is 3/7

(c) Probability that the all three cellphones are yellow (with replacement).

Since the cellphone is replaced, the probability is calculated as follows:

[tex]Pr = \frac Yn \times \frac Yn \times \frac Yn[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = \frac 28 \times \frac 28 \times \frac 28[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 14 \times \frac 14 \times \frac 14[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 1{64}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that all three cellphones are yellow (with replacement) is 1/64

(d1) Probability that the two cellphones are green (with replacement).

Since the cellphone is replaced, the probability is calculated as follows:

[tex]Pr = \frac Gn \times \frac{G}{n}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = \frac 68 \times \frac{6}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 34 \times \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{9}{16}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the two cellphones are green (with replacement) is 9/16

(d2) Probability that one green and one yellow is selected (with replacement).

Since the cellphone is replaced, the probability is calculated as follows:

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = \frac Gn \times \frac{Y}{n} + \frac Yn \times \frac{G}{n}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]Pr = \frac 68 \times \frac{2}{8} + \frac 28 \times \frac{6}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 34 \times \frac{1}{4} + \frac 14 \times \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac 3{16} + \frac{3}{16}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Pr = \frac {3+3}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac {6}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac {3}{8}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that one green and one yellow is selected (with replacement) is 3/8

Find the limits, if they exist lim(x,y)→(0,0) (3x^2/(4x^2+4y^2))

Answers

(1) Along the x-axis, we have y = 0, so that

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)} \frac{3x^2}{4x^2+4y^2} = \lim_{x\to0} \frac{3x^2}{4x^2} =\lim_{x\to0}\frac34= \frac34[/tex]

(2) Along the y-axis, we take x = 0, then

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)} \frac{3x^2}{4x^2+4y^2} = \lim_{y\to0} \frac0{4y^2} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)} \frac{3x^2}{4x^2+4y^2} = \lim_{x\to0} \frac{3x^2}{4x^2+4(mx)^2} = \lim_{x\to0}\frac{3x^2}{4x^2+4m^2x^2} = \frac3{4+4m^2}[/tex]
