Answer:
3.825 kg apples.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x kg be the amount of apples stand owner had initially.
We have been given that during the first hour of operation the farm stand owner sold 15% of the apples he had. Then the amount of sold apples will be:
On the second hour he sold 20% of the remaining apples. So the amount of sold apples on the second hour will be 20% of 0.85x.
During the second hour 25.5 kg of apples were sold, so we can set up an equation as:
So, stand owner had initially 150 kg of apples.
On the third hour he sold 25% of the remaining apples. So the amount of sold apples on the 3rd hour will be 25% of 0.68x
As remaining apples were sold 5% more each following hour.
Let us substitute x=150 into above equation we will get,
Therefore, 3.825 kg of apples were sold during the 4th hour.
Answer:
Approximately 485 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We can first construct a right triangle, using the 500 m length of hill as our hypotenuse. Using the fact that the cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, we see that
where x is the horizontal distance covered. Solving for x, we find this horizontal distance to be
so our answer is approximately 485 m.
