Answer:
97
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following conditions :
board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from 1 to 100
Three colors are used to paint the squares from left to right in the sequence :
one blue, two reds and three green squares in a repeated pattern.
What is the highest numbered square that is painted blue?
The sequence of painting is repeated after :
(1 + 2 + 3) = 6 successive squares
Since the number of squares = 100
Maximum complete repetition possible :
100 / 6 = 16 remainder 4
Hence 16 * 6 = 96 (the highest complete sequence terminates on the square numbered 96)
On the 97th square, another sequence begins which is a blue and the 100th square is painted the first of the 3 green colors.
Hence, the highest numbered square that is painted blue is 97
I would say d. Hope that helps
Answer:
The volume of this rectangular prism is 72 cubic units. We multiply 6*4*3 to get 72.
Answer: it cost a customer $7.25 to buy five tulips and $10.5 to buy six roses.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of 1 tulip.
Let y represent the cost of 1 rose.
The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bought seven tulips and nine roses for $25.90. This means that
7x + 9y = 25.9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer bought for four tulips and eight roses for $19.80. This means that
4x + 8y = 19.8- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes
28x + 36y = 103.6
28x + 56y = 138.6
Subtracting, it becomes
- 20y = - 35
y = - 35/ - 20
y = 1.75
Substituting y = 1.75 into equation 2, it becomes
4x + 8 × 1.75 = 19.8
4x + 14 = 19.8
4x = 19.8 - 14 = 5.8
x = 5.8/4
x = 1.45
The cost of 5 tulips would be
1.45 × 5 = $7.25
The cost of 6 roses would be
1.75 × 6 = $10.5
115% is the same as 1.15
some number = x
115% of some number is 120
1.15 of x is 120
1.15 * x = 120
x = 104.3478
<span>x ≈ 104.3</span>
