Casey has 48 red peppers and 16 yellow peppers.If Casey wants to put the peppers into baskets so that each basket has the same number of red peppers and the same number of yellow peppers,what is the greatest number of baskets he can make?How many of each type of pepper will be in each basket?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

16 baskets, each containing 3 red peppers and 1 yellow pepper

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor (GCF) of the two numbers can be found a variety of ways. It is simplest just to recognize that 16 is a divisor of 48, so is the GCF of the two numbers Since that number divides both evenly, the respective quotients will be the number of peppers in each of the 16 baskets.

  (48 red peppers)/(16 baskets) = 3 red peppers/basket

  (16 yellow peppers)/(16 baskets) = 1 yellow pepper/basket

The temperature was -5 F when shelly went to school on Monday. the temperature rose 20 F during the day but fell 25 F during the night. A heat wave increased the temperature 40 F on Tuesday but then an arctic wind overnight decreased the temperature 70 F.What was the temperature on Wednesday

Answers

Answer:

-40

Step-by-step explanation:

You start at -5 then you add 20 to get 15 . Then you subtract 25  from 15  to get -10. Then you add 40 to -10  to get 30. Then you have to subtract 70 from 30 to get -40 F.

Answer:

Minimum value of function C=x+10y is 63 occurs at point (3,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

To minimize :

                                   C=x+10y

Subject to constraints:

                                   x\leq 3---(1)\ny\leq 9---(2)\nx+y\geq 9----(3)\nx\geq 0\ny\geq 0

Eq (1) is in blue in figure attached and region satisfying (1) is on left of blue line

Eq (2) is in green in figure attached and region satisfying (2) is below the green line

Considering x+y\geq 9, corresponding coordinates point to draw line are (0,9) and (9,0).

Eq (3) makes line in orange in figure attached and region satisfying (3) is above the orange line

Feasible region is in triangle ABC with common points A(0,9), B(3,9) and C(3,6)

Now calculate the value of function to be minimized at each of these points.

                                    C=x+10y

at A(0,9)

                                     C=0+10(9)\nC=90

at B(3,9)

                                     C=3+10(9)\nC=93

at C(3,6)

                                     C=3+10(6)\nC=63

Minimum value of function C=x+10y is 63 occurs at point C (3,6).

Applying the method of corners to the linear programming problem yields a minimum value of 6 at the point (3, 0) for the given objective function and constraints.

The linear programming problem involves minimizing an objective function subject to certain constraints. The constraints are given as follows:

Minimize z = 2x + 3y

Subject to:

x ≤ 3

y ≤ 9

x + y ≥ 9

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

To find the minimum value, we employ the method of corners. The feasible region is determined by the intersection of the inequalities. The corner points of this region are where the constraints intersect.

Intersection of x ≤ 3 and y ≥ 0 gives the point (3, 0).

Intersection of y ≤ 9 and x ≥ 0 gives the point (0, 9).

Intersection of x + y ≥ 9 and y ≥ 0 gives the point (9, 0).

Now, evaluate the objective function z = 2x + 3y at each corner point:

z1 = 2(3) + 3(0) = 6

z2 = 2(0) + 3(9) = 27

z3 = 2(9) + 3(0) = 18

The minimum value occurs at point (3, 0) with z_min = 6.

Quinton had a gross income of $2741.67 during each pay period in 2009. If he got paid monthly, how much of his pay was deducted for FICA in 2009?

Answers

Answer:

$2,516.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Quinton had a monthly gross income of $2741.67.

He was paid yearly = $2741.67 × 12 = $32,900.04

FICA tax  is social security tax (6.2%) and medicare tax (1.45%)

FICA tax rate = 6.2% + 1.45% = 7.65%

FICA tax deduction = 7.65% × 32,900.04

                                 = 0.0765 × 32,900.04

                                 = $2,516.85

His pay was deducted for FICA $2,516.85
