Answer:
- w + b = 13
- 6.5w + 2b = 57.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the number of gifts wrapped. Let b represent the number of bags prepared.
w + b = 13 . . . . gift bags and gifts wrapped
6.5w +2b = 57.5 . . . . total time spent preparing gifts
_____
Lincoln wrapped 7 gifts and bagged 6.
A) The first step needs 100 bricks, the second needs 98, the third needs 96, and so on. Therefore the number of bricks for the nth step is: a_n = a_1 + d(n-1), where a_1 = 100 (the first term), d = -2 (difference).
a_n = 100 - 2(n-1) = 102 - 2n, and for the 30th step, a_30 = 102 - 2*30 = 42. So the top step will need 42 bricks.
b) The total staircase will need: 100 + 98 + 96 + ... + 44 + 42, and there are n = 30 terms. Using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic sequence:
S = (a_1 + a_n)*n/2 = (100 + 42)*30/2 = 2130
Therefore, 2130 bricks are required to build the entire staircase.
A unit fraction is a rational number written as a fraction where the numerator is one and the denominator is a positive integer. A unit fraction is therefore the reciprocal of a positive integer, 1/n. Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 ,1/5, etc.
Answer:
C) abH
Step-by-step explanation:
a × b × H
= abH
The answer is option C
Hey! the answer is 8 dimes and 4 nickels
8 dimes = 8×10
and 4 nickels = 5×4 = 20
which 20+80 = 100
and I would put (D) break into parts
hope it helps!
