Let the ratio of the number of blue to yellow cards be 4:3
since blue has 4 parts and yellow has 3, the total would be 7 equal parts which sum up to 84
--> each part is equal to 12
blue has 4 parts so there are 4*12=48 blue cards in total
Step-by-step explanation:
you're going to have to set up two expressions since it's an absolute value problem
I believe x=15. Because you’ll just plug them in
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Current count of pushups = 8
Number of increase in pushups each day = 2
The desired pushup goal on daily basis = 30
Days require = x= ?
as we can conclude the number of pushups would increase by following sequence
8, 10, 12, 14, 16, ......30
Now as we can be the number of pushups by a constant number each day it means this sequence is arithmetic.
First term of our sequence is X1 and the final term is Xn, and the difference between two consecutive terms (Common Difference) is 2.
So
X1 = 8
Xn = 30
d = 2
Using the formula of nth term for arithmetic sequence
Xn = X1 + (n-1)d
Substituting the values
30 = 8 + (n-1)2
30-8 = (n-1)2
22 = 2n -2
22+2 = 2n
2n = 24
n = 24/2
n = 12
So, it means on the 12th day he will have to do 30 pushups if he starts from 8 and increase 2 pushups each day.
