There are two ways you can do this. You can use the longer way:
15+16+17+18+19+20+21+22+23+24 = 195 (starting from the top row, which has 15 logs, up until the bottom row, which has 24 logs, on condition that each second row has one log more than the previous one)
You can also use the formula (where n is the number of rows)
x= (n(first term+last term))/2
x= (10(15+24))/2
x= (10*39)/2
x=390/2
x=195
Either way, there are 195 logs in the stack.

Answer:
(A)129 Pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of 23% zink alloy
Therefore:
Since the total result is 516 pounds
The number of pounds of 42% zink alloy =516-x pounds
We then have the resulting equation:
0.23x+0.42(516-x)=0.3725*516
0.23x+216.72-0.42x=192.21
Colect like terms
0.23x-0.42x=192.21-216.72
-0.19x=-24.51
Divide both sides by 129
x=129 pounds
Therefore, the number of pounds of 23% zink alloy that must be mixed is 129 pounds.
? = 2. Thats the only one i got that equals 8xy^2. Not sure if its right tho.
Answer:
(x-10)/4
Step-by-step explanation:
10 less than x means,
x - 10
and the divide by 4.
=> (x-10)/4
