Answer:
507,409
Step-by-step explanation:
if every 5 days the number quadruples (x4), and we want to know how many acorns fall after 30 days, we can divide 30 by 5 so we only have to calculate for the amount of time the take to quadruple.
30 ÷ 5 = 6
so we only have to quadruple the acorns 6 times.
if we start off with 124 acorns, this is what it will look like:
Day 0: 124 acorns
Day 5: 124 x 4 = 496 acorns
Day 10: 496 x 4 = 1984 acorns
Day 15: 1984 x 4 = 7936 acorns
etc... until day 30.
Day 30: 507904 acorns

Answer:
z=40 degrees
x=90 degrees
y=40 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve z you know that 50+90+z= 180 degrees. So z equals 40. To solve x you subtract 90 from 180 to get 90 degrees. To solve you add 50+x+y. You know that x= 90. You would add the angles together to get 180 degrees. 50+90=140 and 180-140 equals 40. Sorry if i'm wrong.
Answer:
40 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume "outbound" refers to the trip <em>to the lake</em>. The ratio of speeds is inversely proportional to the ratio of times, so ...
outbound speed : inbound speed = 4 : 3
These differ by one ratio unit, so that one ratio unit corresponds to the speed difference of 10 mph. Then the 4 ratio units of outbound speed will correspond to ...
4×10 mph = 40 mph
Paul's average speed on the outbound trip was 40 mph.
___
The distance to the lake was 120 mi.
