Answer:

A) 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer be $a+1$ . Then we wish to solve for the following:

$(a+1) + (a+2) + \cdots + (a + n) + 100 = (a + (n + 1)) + (a + (n + 2)) + \cdots + (a + (2n))\\10a + (1 + 2 + \cdots + n) + 100 = 10a + ((n + 1) + (n + 2) + \cdots + (2n))\\\frac{1}{2}(n)(n + 1) + 100 = \frac{1}{2}(n)(3n + 1)\\n(n + 1) + 200 = n(3n + 1)\\n^2 + n + 200 = 3n^2 + n\\2n^2 = 200\\n^2 = 100\\n = 10 \quad \text{(because $n > 0$)}$

you have 4500 cubic centimeters of wax. how many cylindrical candles can you make from the wax if each candle is 15 cm tall and

ira [324]

Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder to work out how much wax you need to make one candle.

π×5²×15 = 375π

Then divide the amount of wax you have by the amount of wax you need to produce one candle to work out how many candles you can make.

4500 ÷ 375π = 3.82

However, you can't produce 82% of a candle, so you have to round down to 3 candles.

Tom rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of 19.95 , and there was an additional charge of 85 cents for each mile dri

Sidana [21]

Answer:

231 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom rented a truck with a base fee of 19.95. You will subtract this from the total since you just want to get the mileage.

Tom is getting charged .85 cents per mile driven.

Tom payed 216.30 subtotal minus the 19.95 base fee since we are trying to only see how many miles he drove.

(216.30-19.95=196.35) This will be total for each mile. All we need to do is divide to get the total of miles

(196.35÷.85= 231)
