Answer:

  58

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of trees in a row that starts and ends with a rambutan tree is ...

  4n -3 . . . . for n rambutan trees

So, the number of rambutan trees that there can be in a row of 230 trees is ...

  4n -3 ≤ 230

  4n ≤ 233

  n ≤ 233/4 = 58 1/4

The largest possible number of rambutan trees in a row of 230 trees is 58.

_____

1 rambutan tree: R . . . n=1, tree count = 1

2 rambutan trees: RpppR . . . n=2, tree count = 5

3 rambutan trees: RpppRpppR . . . n=3, tree count = 9

The tree count is an arithmetic sequence with first term 1 and common difference 4. Then the n-th term of the sequence is ...

  tn = a1 +d(n -1) = 1 +4(n -1) = 4n -3

Term 58 is ...

  t58 = 4·58 -3 = 229

So, the row of trees might be ...

  RpppRppp ... RpppRpppRp . . . . with 58 R and 172 p.

alexdok [17]

Answer: B, p=q

Step-by-step explanation:

In every triangle, the sum of the angles will equal 180 degrees.

If you add the angles given in each triangle, both with equal 100 degrees.

Because of this, you do 180 degrees - 100 degrees to find that each angle, p and q, are both 80 degrees.

Answer:

38 women

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 9 (1 point)

In the middle school PTA there is a total of 47 men and women. The number of women the PTA is 2 more than four times the number of men. How many women are in the

PTA?

Let the number of men = x

Let the number of women = y

x + y = 47

y = 2 + 4x

We substitute

x + 2 + 4x = 47

Collect like terms

5x = 47 - 2

5x = 45

x = 45/5 = 9

y = 2 + 4x

y = 2 + 4 × 9

y = 2 + 36

y = 38

Therefore, the number of women = y = 38 women
