Answer:
1159
Step-by-step explanation:
She wants to read 1000 pages per week for five weeks.
So in total she wants to read 1000 * 5 = 5000 pages.
The first three weeks she read 894 pages per week.
So during the first three weeks she read a total of 894 * 3 = 2682 pages.
We want to find how many pages she must read per week for the last two weeks to reach her goal.
Goal: 5000 pages
Pages read so far: 2682
Weeks remaining: 2
To find how many pages she must read for the last two weeks we simply subtract the number of pages she read during the first 3 weeks (2682 ) by her goal ( 5000 )
5000 - 2682 = 2318
So she must read 2318 pages during the last 2 weeks.
If we want to find the amount of pages she must read per week during the last 2 weeks to reach her goal, we simply divide the amount of pages she must read during the last few weeks to reach her goal ( 2318 ) by the number of remaining weeks ( 2 )
2318 / 2 = 1159
So for the last two weeks she must average 1159 pages per week.

Answer:
There may be 1 or 3 tricycles in the parking lot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since at any point in time, there could be bicycles, tricycles, and cars in the school parking lot, and today, there are 53 wheels in total, if there are 15 bicycles, tricycles, and cars in total, to determine how many tricycles could be in the parking lot, the following calculation must be performed:
13 x 4 + 1 x 3 + 1 x 2 = 57
11 x 4 + 1 x 3 + 3 x 2 = 53
10 x 4 + 3 x 3 + 2 x 2 = 53
8 x 4 + 5 x 3 + 2 x 2 = 51
10 x 2 + 1 x 3 + 4 x 4 = 39
9 x 3 + 1 x 2 + 5 x 4 = 49
Therefore, there may be 1 or 3 tricycles in the parking lot.
