Ice Cream Scoops - In shops with lots of ice-cream flavors there are many different flavor combinations, even with only a 2-scoo

blondinia [14]

Answer:

The general formula that can be used to find the required combinations for n flavor ice-cream.

$N_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$

For 10 ice-cream flavors

$N_{10} = \frac{10(10+1)}{2}$

$N_{10} = 55$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let V = Vanila, C = Chocolate, S = Strawberry, P = Pineapple, B = Berry

2 ice-cream flavor:

V, C

{V/V, V/C, C/C}

3 possible combinations

3 ice-cream flavor:

V, C, S

{V/V, V/C, V/S, C/S, C/C, S/S}

6 possible combinations

4 ice-cream flavor:

V, C, S, P

{V/V, V/C, V/S, V/P, C/S, C/P, S/P, C/C, S/S, P/P}

10 possible combinations

5 ice-cream flavor:

V, C, S, P, B

{V/V, V/C, V/S, V/P, V/B, C/S, C/P, C/B, S/P, S/B, P/B, C/C, S/S, P/P, B/B }

15 possible combinations

So we have a series of

3, 6, 10, 15...

This series is known as Triangular number series

1 + 2 = 3

1 + 2 + 3 = 6

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15

The general formula for this series is

$N_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$

Using the above formula we can predict the number of 2-scoop combinations with 10 flavors.

$N_{10} = \frac{10(10+1)}{2}$

$N_{10} = 55$

Therefore, there are 55 different combinations of 2-scoop with 10 flavors.

NEED HELP WITH MY MATH

So for this problem we can recognize that it's a system of linear equations

recall the slope intercept form of a line
$y = mx + b$
given the info we can write two linear equations one for John and one for Lyndon

take a look at johns part of the question. we can see that his bank starts with 100 dollars and every day after he saves 20 dollars. Now we can see that the 100 is the y intercept or b of our equation because it's our initial amount and the rate of change or m of the equation is 25. filling in this info we get this as johns equation:

$y = 25x + 100$
now we can do the same for Lydon, she has 50 dollars to start and saves 30 dollars a day. So using the same steps as we did for John we get the equation
$y = 30x + 50$
now we can do a little trick, to find out when their bank amounts will be equal we set both equations equal to each other (we're just substituting y into the equation) So we get
$25x + 100 = 30x + 50$
now let's clean this up and solve for X with some algebra
$100 = 30x - 25x + 50$
subtract 25x
$100 = 5x + 20$
combine like terms
$80 = 5x$
subtract 20
$x = 16$
divide off 5 to get your x value

now we're almost done we just need to plug X back into any of our two equations we made at the beginning of the problem lets use johns equation and plug in 16 because as we found out x=16

$y = 25(16) + 100$
multiply and add to get
$y = 500$

now that we know
$x = 16 \: \: and \: \: y = 500$
we can finalize our answer answer to the system as a coordinate (x,y) and we'll get

(16,500)

since the questions asks after how many weeks though we would say 16 or the x value because in a time related problem, time is always the x value so the final answer is

$16 \: \: weeks$
