Sean and his cousin are playing a game where they pick up colored sticks. Sean currently has 50 points and likes to pick up the

white sticks, earning 2 points every turn. His cousin just lost all her points on the previous turn, and has a strategy to catch up by getting all the purple ones, earning 12 points per turn. In a certain number of turns, the score will be tied. How long will that take?

Polly buys 14 cupcakes for a party. The bakery puts them into boxes that hold 4 cupcakes each.
Temka [501]

Answer:

Part a) The number of boxes needed will be 4

part b) The fraction of the box that is empty is \frac{1}{2}

Part c) Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many boxes will be needed for Polly to bring all the cupcakes to the party?

To find out the number of boxes needed, divide the total number of cupcakes by 4 (maximum number of cupcakes that fit in each box).

so

\frac{14}{4}=3.5\ box

Round up

The number of boxes needed will be 4

Part b) If the bakery completely fills as many boxes as possible, what fraction of the last box is empty?

we know that

The maximum number of cupcakes per box is 4

The first three boxes have 4 cupcakes

The last box has

14-3(4)=2\ cupcakes

The fraction of the box that is empty is equal to the number of cupcakes missing to fill the box divided by the cupcake capacity of the box

\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}

Part c) How many more cupcakes are needed to fill this box

Subtract the number of cupcakes in the box from the cupcake capacity of the box

The last box has 2 cupcakes

The cupcake capacity of the box is 4

so

4-2=2\ cupcakes

therefore

Are needed 2 cupcakes to fill the last box

( HELP ASAP! EASY POINTS ) The picture below shows a box sliding down a ramp:
TEA [102]

Answer:

AC = 14 cosec(68)

Explanation:

Here given:

  • angle: 68°
  • opposite: 14 ft
  • hypotenuse: AC

Use sine rule:

\rightarrow \sf sin(x) = \dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

\rightarrow \sf sin(68) = \dfrac{14}{AC}

\rightarrow \sf AC= \dfrac{14}{ sin(68) }

\rightarrow \sf AC= 14  \ cosec(68)
