Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Current count of pushups = 8

Number of increase in pushups each day = 2

The desired pushup goal on daily basis = 30

Days require = x= ?

as we can conclude the number of pushups would increase by following sequence

8, 10, 12, 14, 16, ......30

Now as we can be the number of pushups by a constant number each day it means this sequence is arithmetic.

First term of our sequence is X1 and the final term is Xn, and the difference between two consecutive terms (Common Difference) is 2.

So

X1 = 8

Xn = 30

d = 2

Using the formula of nth term for arithmetic sequence

Xn = X1 + (n-1)d

Substituting the values

30 = 8 + (n-1)2

30-8 = (n-1)2

22 = 2n -2

22+2 = 2n

2n = 24

n = 24/2

n = 12

So, it means on the 12th day he will have to do 30 pushups if he starts from 8 and increase 2 pushups each day.

The following numerically ordered sequence of numbers has a mean
Vladimir79 [104]
Median =  middle number

Total ten numbers so 
median =   (17 + b)/2
given median = 18
so
(17 + b)/  2 = 18
17+b = 36
b = 36 - 17
b = 19

Now you have the data set
7, a , 12, 15 , 17, 19, 20, 22, 24 , 25

Mean =  (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24  +25)/ 10
Given mean = 17

so
17 = (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24  +25)/ 10
17 = (a + 161) / 10
a + 161 = 170
a = 170 - 161
a = 9

answer
a = 9
b = 19

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 45% pure anti
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

First brand = 18 gallons

Second brand = 12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first brand brand be A and the second brand be B.

Thus, since he wants to obtain 30 gallons of a mixture that contains 30% pure antifreeze, then we have;

A + B = 30 - - - (eq 1)

Also; The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 45% pure antifreeze. Thus;

0.2A + 0.45B = (0.3 × 30)

0.2A + 0.45B = 9 - - - (eq 2)

From eq 1, we have; A = 30 - B

Put 30 - B for A in eq 2;

0.2(30 - B) + 0.45B = 9

6 - 0.2B + 0.45B = 9

0.25B = 9 - 6

0.25B = 3

B = 3/0.25

B = 12

Thus, A = 30 - 12 = 18 gallons

Isabella spent $49 for 7 bracelets. Each bracelet cost the same amount.
n200080 [17]
To answer this question, we first have to set up an equation with variables.
We can use "x" to represent the cost of each bracelet.

Equation: number of bracelets bought × cost of each bracelet = total cost

Number of bracelets bought: 7
Total Cost: 49

Using this information, we can fill in the equation and solve for x.

7x = 49

To isolate x, divide both sides by 7.

x = 7

Since x equals 7, we now know that each bracelet cost $7.
