Answer:

  105

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers that can be used to form triangles are collectively called "triangle numbers." The n-th triangle number is the sum of all numbers less than or equal to n. It is ...

  n(n+1)/2

For n=14, the number is 14(15)/2 = 7·15 = 105.

The clerk used 105 oranges to make the arrangement.

<h3>Answer:   2072.4 square cm</h3>

===============================================================

Explanation:

If you used scissors to cut a vertical slice down the lampshade, then it can be unrolled to form a rectangle.

The horizontal portion of this rectangle is the distance around the circle, which is the perimeter of the circle, or the circumference. That's C = 2pi*r. Check out the diagram below to see what I mean.

The diagram shows that the diameter is 20 cm, so the radius is half that at 20/2 = 10 cm.

The circumference is C = 2*pi*r = 2*pi*10 = 20pi cm exactly

The height of the rectangle is the height of the cylinder, which is h = 30 as shown in the diagram.

The area of the rectangle is length*height = (20pi)*(30) = 600pi square cm exactly.

If we were to use something like pi = 3.14, then its approximate area is 600*pi = 600*3.14 = 1884 square cm

Let's bump this up by 10%. To do so, we'll multiply by 1.10

1.10*1884 = 2072.4

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

14.67 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry has two pixie sticks full of delicious sugar.

Now, each pixie stick contains 22 grams of sugary goodness, then in two sticks, there will be (22 × 2) = 44 grams of sugar.

Now, Henry shares two pixie sticks among two friends and himself in equal proportion.  

Therefore, each of his friends will get \frac{44}{3} = 14.67 (Round to the nearest tenth) gram of sugary goodness. (Answer)
