If 588 digits were used to number the pages of a book how many pages are in this book.

Mathematics

iVinArrow [24]3 years ago

6 0

Answer: 232 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Total digits = 588

1 digit page number:

1 to 9 = 1 × 9 = 9

Number of pages = 9/1 = 9

2 - digit page number :

10 - 99 = 2 × 90 = 180

Number of pages = 180/2 = 90

3 - digit page number :

588 - (9 + 180) = 588 - 189 = 399

Number of pages with 3 - digits = 399/3 = 133

Therefore, the total number of pages the book has is :

(9 + 90 + 133) = 232 pages

What is the 13th term of this arithmetic sequence?<br><br> 132, 135, 138, 141, …

Marrrta [24]

The rule for this sequence is n + 3. 132 --> 135 is +3, 135 --> 138 is +3, and 138 --> 141 is +3. Let's use this rule until we find the 13th term. 132 (1) 135(2) 138(3) 141(4) 144(5) 147(6) 150(7) 153(8) 156(9) 159(10) 162(11) 165(12) 168(13) 168 is the 13th term in this sequence. I hope this helps!

The Ace Novelty company produces two souvenirs: Type A and Type B. The number of Type A souvenirs, x, and the number of Type B s

Molodets [167]

Answer:

500 type A; 3500 type B

Step-by-step explanation:

The method of Lagrange multipliers can solve this quickly. For objective function f(x, y) and constraint function g(x, y)=0 we can set the partial derivatives of the Lagrangian to zero to find the values of the variables at the extreme of interest.

These functions are ...

$f(x,y)=4x+2y\\g(x,y)=2x^2+y-4$

The Lagrangian is ...

$\mathcal{L}(x,y,\lambda)=f(x,y)+\lambda g(x,y)\\\\\text{and the partial derivatives are ...}\\\\\dfrac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial x}=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}+\lambda\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial x}=4+\lambda (4x)=0\ \implies\ x=\dfrac{-1}{\lambda}\\\\\dfrac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}+\lambda\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}=2+\lambda (1)=0\ \implies\ \lambda=-2$

$\dfrac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial\lambda}=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial\lambda}+\lambda\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial\lambda}=0+2x^2+y-4=0\ \implies\ y=4-2x^2\\\\\text{We know $\lambda$, so we can find x and y:}\\\\x=\dfrac{-1}{-2}=0.5\\\\y=4-2\cdot 0.5^2=3.5$

Since x and y are in thousands, maximum profit is to be had when the company produces ...

500 Type A souvenirs, and 3500 Type B souvenirs
