Mathematics
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of fruits collected be y.

Since 25% of fruits were ripe, if we multiply the total no. with 25%, we get the number of ripe fruits, which is 50, given.

y x 25% = 50

y = 50 / 25%

y = 50 / 0.25

y = 200

Therefore, the total number of fruits collected is 200.

You bike 1 mile the first day of your​ training, 1.3 miles the second​ day, 1.9 miles the third​ day, and 3.1 miles the fourth d
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

19.9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have:

d_1=1 mi is the distance travelled during the 1st day

d_2=1.3 mi is the distance travelled during the 2nd day

d_3=1.9 mi is the distance travelled during the 3rd day

d_4=3.1 mi is the distance travelled during the 4th day

We notice that the difference between the distance travelled on the (n+1)-th day and the distance travelled on the n-th day doubles every day. In fact:

d_2-d_1=0.3\\d_3-d_2=2\cdot 0.3 = 0.6\\d_4-d_3=2\cdot 0.6 = 1.2

Which can be rewritten using the general formula:

d_{n+1}-d_n=2(d_n-d_{n-1})

This means that

d_{n+1}=d_n+2(d_n-d_{n-1})

By applying this formula recursively, we can find the 7th term, which is the distance travelled on the 7th day:

d_1=1\\d_2=1.3\\d_3=1.9\\d_4=3.1\\d_5=3.1+2\cdot 1.2=5.5\\d_6=5.5+2\cdot 2.4=10.3\\d_7=10.3+2\cdot 4.8=19.9 mi

So, the  distance travelled on the 7th day is 19.9 miles.

A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes or a simple arrangement in 10 minutes. The florist makes at least twice as
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of simple arrangements and y be the number of grand arrangements.

1. The florist makes at least twice as many of the simple arrangements as the grand arrangements, so

x\ge 2y

2. A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes =\dfrac{3}{10} hour, then he can make y arrangements in \dfrac{3}{10}y hours.

A florist can make  a simple arrangement in 10 minutes =\dfrac{1}{6} hour, so he can make x arrangements in \dfrac{1}{6}x hours.

The florist can work only 40 hours per week, then

\dfrac{3}{10}y+\dfrac{1}{6}x\le 40

3. The profit on the simple arrangement is $10, then the profit on x simple arrangements is $10x.

The profit on the grand arrangement is $25, then the profit on y grand arrangements is $25y.

Total profit: $(10x+25y)

Plot first two inequalities and find the point where the profit is maximum. This point is point of intersection of lines x=2y and \dfrac{3}{10}y+\dfrac{1}{6}x=40

But this point has not integer coordinates. The nearest point with two integer coordinates is (126,63), then the maximum profit is

\$(10\cdot 126+25\cdot 63)=\$2,835
