Answer: 6 donuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Cost of donut = $1.50

Cost of cookies = $0.50

Amount to spend = $15

Total number of donut and cookies to buy must not be less than 12

Number of cookies purchased = 10

Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:

Amount spent on cookies = (10 × $0.50) = $5

Amount left to spend = ($15 - $5) = $10

Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:

Amount left / cost per donut

= $10 / $1.50

= $6.66

Hence, maximum number of donut would be 6

The sequence$$1,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,2,1,2,\dots$$consists of $1$'s separated by blocks of $2$'s with $n$ $2$'s i
kicyunya [14]

Consider the lengths of consecutive 1-2 blocks.

block 1 - 1, 2 - length 2

block 2 - 1, 2, 2 - length 3

block 3 - 1, 2, 2, 2 - length 4

block 4 - 1, 2, 2, 2, 2 - length 5

and so on.


Recall the formula for the sum of consecutive positive integers,

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^j i = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + j = \frac{j(j+1)}2 \implies \sum_{i=2}^j = \frac{j(j+1) - 2}2

Now,

1234 = \dfrac{j(j+1)-2}2 \implies 2470 = j(j+1) \implies j\approx49.2016

which means that the 1234th term in the sequence occurs somewhere about 1/5 of the way through the 49th 1-2 block.

In the first 48 blocks, the sequence contains 48 copies of 1 and 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 47 copies of 2, hence they make up a total of

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^48 1 + \sum_{i=1}^{48} i = 48+\frac{48(48+1)}2 = 1224

numbers, and their sum is

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^{48} 1 + \sum_{i=1}^{48} 2i = 48 + 48(48+1) = 48\times50 = 2400

This leaves us with the contribution of the first 10 terms in the 49th block, which consist of one 1 and nine 2s with a sum of 1+9\times2=19.

So, the sum of the first 1234 terms in the sequence is 2419.

What is the area that she paints
Andre45 [30]
To determine this, we need to multiply 8 by 36 and 3 by 4 to get the total area.
8 x 36 = 288
3 x 4 = 12

Subtract the two to get the total area she is painting.
288-12 = 276
Your total area is 276 sq ft.
Your answer is D.)
I hope this helps!
