Answer:

S=252logs

Step-by-step explanation:

bottom layer has a1 = 25

second layer has a2 = a1 - 1 = 24

third layer has a3 = a2 - 1 = a1 - 2 = 23

.

.

n-th layer has an an = a1 - n = 25 - n

the top layer contains an = 25 - n and we know that the top layer has 11 logs thus

25 - n = 11

n = 25 - 11

n = 14

there are 14 layers

the total number of logs is the sum of the first 14 members of the Arithmetic Progression 25, 24, 23, 23,.....11 where

an = 25 - n

Sn = (n/2)(a1 + an) and since n = 14

S14 = (14/2)(25 + 11) = 7*36 = 252

S14 = 252 logs

Based on a survey of U.S. residents completed in 2014, ___________ percent of respondents agreed that global warming is occurrin
Daniel [21]

Using the percentage concept, supposing 520 out of 1000 respondents believe in global warming, 52% of respondents agreed that global warming is occurring.

<h3>What is a percentage?</h3>

The percentage of an amount a over a total amount b is given by a multiplied by 100% and divided by b, that is:

P = \frac{a}{b} \times 100\%

In this problem, we suppose that 520 out of 1000 respondents believe in global warming, hence a = 520, b = 1000, and the percentage is of:

P = \frac{520}{1000} \times 100\% = 52\%

What value of x is in the solution set of 2x – 3 &gt; 11 – 5x?
pochemuha

Given:

2x -3 > 11 -5x

Simplify both sides:

2x - 3 > -5x + 11

Add 5x to both sides:

2x - 3 +5x > -5x + 11 +5

7x - 3 > 11

Add 3 to both sides:

7x - 3 +3 > 11 + 3

7x > 14

Divided 7 to both sides:

\frac{7x}{7} > \frac{14}{7}

x > 2

Which statement describes the lines whose equations are y=1/3x+12 and 6y=2x+6
ICE Princess25 [194]
First, you should solve both equations for the same variable. Since the first one is already solved for y, solve the second equation for y as well.

6y = 2x + 6   Divide both sides by 6
y = \frac{1}{3}x + 1

You can see that both lines have a slope of \frac{1}{3}.
Lines that have the same slope are parallel lines.
