Jacob baked 42 sugar cookies and 30 oatmeal cookies to package for his friends at school. He wants to package the cookies into identical containers so that each container has the same number of cookies. If he uses all of the cookies, what is the greatest number of containers he needs?

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of sugar cookies = 42

Number of Oatmeal = 30

To package the cookies into identical containers so that each container has the same number of cookies with no left over ;

We find the greatest common factor of 42 and 30

Factors of 42 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

Factors of 30 : 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30

The greatest common factor = 6

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
