If $\frac{6}{7}$ were incorrect, it means that $\frac{1}{7}=4$ were correct
$4*7=28$
There were 28 problems ;)

El jardinero de un parque planta flores siguiendo cierto patrón. En la primera fila planta 4 flores, en la segunda 7 y así suces

nevsk [136]

Answer:

a) Para $i = 4$ , hay 13 flores en la fila 4.

b) Para $i = 7$ , hay 22 flores en la fila 7.

c) La fila 11 tiene 34 flores.

Step-by-step explanation:

De acuerdo con el enunciado, cada fila tiene tres flores más que la fila inmediatamente anterior, significando que se puede determinar el número de flores de cada fila mediante una serie aritmética:

$n = 4+3\cdot (i-1)$ , $i \ge 1$ (1)

Donde:

$i$ - Índice de la fila de flores.

$n$ - Número de flores del índice de la fila de flores.

a) Para $i = 4$ , hay 13 flores en la fila 4.

b) Para $i = 7$ , hay 22 flores en la fila 7.

c) Si $n = 34$ , entonces el índice de la fila es:

$i=1+\frac{n-4}{3}$

$i = 11$

La fila 11 tiene 34 flores.

A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies. The total cost of the apples is $5.10. Granny Smith apples cost

Natasha2012 [34]

The baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

Solution:

Let "x" be the number of gala apples bought

Let "y" be the number of granny smith apples bought

Cost of 1 gala apple = $ 0.30

Cost of 1 granny smith apple = $ 0.25

A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies

Therefore,

number of gala apples bought + number of granny smith apples bought = 19

x + y = 19 --------- eqn 1

The total cost of the apples is $5.10

Therefore, we can frame a equation as:

number of gala apples bought x Cost of 1 gala apple + number of granny smith apples bought x Cost of 1 granny smith apple = 5.10

$x \times 0.30 + y \times 0.25 = 5.10$

0.3x + 0.25y = 5.1 -------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

From eqn 1,

x = 19 - y ---------- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

0.3(19 - y) + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.3y + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.05y = 5.1

0.05y = 5.7 - 5.1

0.05y = 0.6

y = 12

Substitute y = 12 in eqn 3

x = 19 - 12

x = 7

Thus the baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

What is the proportionality of 4 and 1.50?

Llana [10]

Answer:

y = 0.375x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there are two variables, one independent variable x and another dependent variable y which are in proportionality relation.

So, y ∝ x

⇒ y = kx ........... (1) {Where k is the proportionality constant}

Let us assume that the given values of 4 and 1.50 are values of x and y respectively.

Hence, from equation (1) we get, 1.5 = 4k

⇒ k = 0.375

So, the proportionality equation is y = 0.375x (Answer)
