Mr. Sawicki has 47 seashells in his collection. He keeps them in containers that can each hold 3 seashells. How many containers can he fill completely? Solve on paper. Check your work on Zearn. Mr. Sawicki can fill containers completely with his seashells.

15 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Each container can hold 3 seashells but he has 47 seashells in his collection.

The number of containers that can take these shells is;

= 47 / 3

= 15.67

The number of containers that he can fill up completely is 15 containers.

After 15 containers, he will only be able to fill up 0.67 of the next container.

congruent segments

step-by-step explanation:

answer: (-8,4) are the coordinates of a

step-by-step explanation:

let the side of square abcd is x .

thus the area of square abcd is .

now, by the diagram area of triangle ead= 1/2 × ea × ad = 1/2 × ea × x

( because ad is the side of square)

and, according to the question,

the areas of square abcd and right ead are equal.

⇒

⇒ea=2x

thus, ea: ab=2: 1

therefore, point a divides line segment eb into the ratio 2: 1.

⇒ by sectional formula coordinates of a are,

=

=

=(-8, 4)

thus the coordinates of a are (-8,4)
