It would be $6.99. All you have to do is divide the total (34.95) by pounds of coffee (5). 34.95 / 5 will give you 6.99! You can check this by doing 6.99 * 5, which would again give you 34.95. Contact me if you need any more help. :^)
Answer:
8 days
Step-by-step explanation:
On day 8, Isabella will save 256 nickels, bringing her total to 510.
_____
The number of nickels saved on day n is 2^n. The total is 2^(n+1)-2.
_____
The above can be written down from your knowledge of binary sequences. If you want a more formal development, read on.
__
The number of nickels saved on day n is a geometric sequence with first term 2 and common ratio 2. The n-th term of the sequence is ...
an = a1·r^(n-1) = 2·2^(n-1) = 2^n
The sum of n terms of the sequence is ...
S = a1(r^n -1)/(r -1) = 2(2^n -1)/(2-1)
S = 2^(n+1) -2
__
We want S > 500, so ...
500 < 2^(n+1) -2
502 < 2^(n+1)
251 < 2^n
log(251) < n·log(2)
n > log(251)/log(2)
n > 7.97 . . . . . . . . 8 days or more to save more than 500 nickels
Because it has already been factored, we can solve it straight away. Now, since m is a variable, we yield the same result if m = 0 or m = 3 because we have two components to this equation.
We can either have m = 0 or m - 3 = 0
Hence, m is either 0 or 3
Answer: 51 uinits
The three numbers are x , x + 21 and x + 27.
The greatest of the 3 numbers is x + 27, so x + 27 has to be the hypotenuse.
----------------------------------------------
Pythagoras Theorem
----------------------------------------------
a² + b² = c²
x² + (x+21)² = (x+27)²
x² + x² + 42x + 441 = x² + 54x + 729
x² - 12x -288 = 0
(x - 24)(x + 12) = 0
x = 24 or x = -12 (rejected, length cannot be negative)
----------------------------------------------
Find hypotenuse
----------------------------------------------
Hypotenuse = x + 27 = 24 + 27 = 51 units
-----------------------------------------------
Answer: 51 units
