Notice the pattern of the out bags. For every person after the first, three more bags are pulled. By continuing this pattern you will eventually find the answer
1=2
2=5
3=8
4=11
5=14
6=17
7=20
8=23
9=26
10=29
11=32
Therefore, you need 11 people to get the job done in one day
Answer:
$51.
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest I = PRT/100 where P = amount of the loan , R = rate and T = the times in years.
I = 340 * 15 * 1 / 100
= 5100/100
= $51.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let (applicable to all three lines below)
- Hard candy = x kg with price $1.60/kg
- Gummy worms = y kg with price $2.20/kg
- Total weight = 50 kg with mixed price $1.75/kg
<u>Required equations:</u>
- x + y = 50 total weight
- 1.60x + 2.20y = 50*1.75 total price
=========================================
<u><em>Note</em></u><em>. It says don't solve but the solution below for those who is interested to know the answer.</em>
<u>Simplify the second equation and solve by substitution x = 50 - y:</u>
- 1.6(50 - y) + 2.2y = 87.5
- 80 - 1.6y +2.2y = 87.5
- 0.6y = 7.5
- y = 7.5/0.6
- y = 12.5
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
<u>Hard candy</u> = 37.5 kg and <u>gummy worms</u> = 12.5 kg
