Step-by-step explanation:
a) Cost of hiring the bicycle for 14 days is:
Cost = 65 * 14 days + 44 = 954 riyals
b) The number of days the bicycle is hired is to be the same as the number of days the bicycle is to be hired. Let us assume that the bicycle and helmet is to be hired for x days, hence:
Cost of bicycle = 65 * x + 14 = 65x + 44
Cost of helmet = 12.5 * x = 12.5x
Total cost = 65x + 44 + 12.5x = 77.5x + 44
Since 750 riyals is available, hence:
750 = 77.5x + 44
77.5x = 706
x = 9.11
Therefore the maximum number of days is 11. The total cost for 11 days is:
Total cost = 77.5(9) + 44 = 741.5 riyals
Money not spent = 750 riyals - 741.5 riyals = 8.5 riyals
Bruce has a rope that is 21 feet long he needs to cut the rope into 1/5 long pieces.
The length of the rope = 21 feet
the length of each strip =
We need to cut the rope 21 feet into strips
To find the number of strips we divide 21 feet by the length of the strip
=
= 105
105 strips can Bruce cut from his rope.
