Donald Trump wants to build a 100 meter high tower as quickly as possible. He has unlimited resources and an unlimited budget an

d is willing to spend any amount to get the job done.
He has chosen to build the tower with blocks that are 100 meters long and 100 meters wide, but only 1 meter tall. The blocks interlock on top and bottom (like legos). They cannot be stacked sideways or on their ends.
Using special lifters, putting one stack on top of another stack takes one week regardless of how high the stacks are.
What is the shortest amount of time (weeks) that it will take to build the tower?

I looked up the answer, and everywhere it says that it is 10 weeks, but would it work with 1 stack of 100 blocks (1 week)?

It will take 100 weeks to build the tower.

Since Donald Trump wants to build a 100 meter high tower as quickly as possible with blocks that are 100 meters long and 100 meters wide, but only 1 meter tall, and using special lifters, putting one stack on top of another stack takes one week regardless of how high the stacks are, to determine what is the shortest amount of time (weeks) that it will take to build the tower, the following calculation must be performed:

  • Time per block x total blocks = Total time
  • 1 week x 100 = X
  • 100 weeks = X

Therefore, it will take 100 weeks to build the tower.

Answer: 100 weeks

Step-by-step explanation: I think this is like a trick question or what not. I’m going to give you my best answer. It takes 1 week to stack a block and he wants it to be 100 meter tall. 1 block is one meter tall and since it takes 1 week per stack you would do 100 x 1 equals to 100 weeks. I know it says the shortest time but thats my best guess

Factor the GCF: -6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3
natta225 [31]
<span>-6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3

</span>-6x^4y^5 =  -2, 3, x, x, x, x,  y, y, y, y, y
15x^3y^2 =  -5, 3 x, x, x, y, y
9x^2y^3 =    3, 3 x, x, y, y, y

Each group has a 3 in common and each group has 2 x in common and each group has 2 y in common so the GCF = -3x^2y^2

Divide that out and we get 
\frac{-6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3}{-3x^2y^2} =
2x^2y^3 + 5x - 3y
-3x^2y^2(2x^2y^3 + 5x - 3y)

Which of these percentages is closest in value to
lana [24]
\frac{7}{9} = 0.777777777777777...

To get a percentage, you need to first round the decimal to the hundreths place. Whenever you have a number greater than 5, you round up.
Therefore, you can round it to 0.78.
Now to get the percentage you multiply it by 100.

0.78*100 = 78

This shows your answer is (c) 78%.

Determine whether each given pair of end points lies on the same horizontal or vertical line. If so, find the length of the line
inessss [21]

Answer:

a. In the same vertical line and segment lenght is 12 units.

b. Those are not in the same horizontal or vertical line.

c. In the same vertical line and segment lenght is 7 units.

d. In the same horizontal line and the segment lenght is 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. the end points are (0,-2) and (0,9). If we represent this two end points on a coordinate axis we can see that these points are  in the same vertical line according to the <em>y</em> axis. And the lenght of the segment that joints the pair of points is 12 units lenght.

B. For subsection b the two given end points if we represent those on a coordinate axis we can say that thse two points are not in the same horizntal or verticall line each other. Because non of the numbers of each point match each other in the same axis.

C. The end points given are (3,-8) and (3,-1), and these points represented on a coordinate axis we can say that those are in the same vertical line. And the lenght of the segment each other is 7 units lenght.

D. The end points of subsection D are (-4,-4) and (5,-4) those points represented on a coordinate axis we can see that those are in the same horizontal line and the length of the segment is equal to 9 units.
