Answer:

100 red bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say red bricks is equal to 5x

Gray bricks is equal to 2x

We have an equation

2x + 5x = 140

= 7x = 140

Divide through by 7 to get the value of x

X = 140/7

X = 20

Red bricks = 5(x)

= 5(20)

= 100

Gray bricks = 2(x)

= 2(20)

= 40

Therefore in conclusion the number of red bricks is 100.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22)  199

Step-by-step explanation:

a) supposed you walked for the first hour. Then you would have travelled 3 miles. if you jogged you would have covered 5miles and if you run you would have covered 10miles. now you have to decide how to run the rest miles from the n miles.

Thus, the number of ways one can cover n miles will be given by the recurrence relation

p(n) = p( n-3) + p( n-5) + p( n - 10)

now to solve the rest of the question, let us make a table which provides the number of ways for n = 1  to 22.

check the attachment for the table

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22)  199
