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

Answer:

80.

4s+5c=46\\3s+c=22

81. Each apple cost $0.50

82. One pound of chocolate = $3

Step-by-step explanation:

80.

Let sold of 1 senior citizen ticket be "s", and

cost of 1 child ticket be "c"

First Day, 4 senior citizen ticket and 5 child tickets sold, equaled $46, so the equation we can write is:

4s+5c=46

Second Day, 3 senior citizen ticket and 1 child ticket sold, equaled $22, so the equation we can write is:

3s+c=22

So, the system of equation (2 equations) written above can be solved simultaneously to find our answer.

4s+5c=46\\3s+c=22

81.

Let price of 1 apple be "a" and price of 1 banana be "b"

Since 3 apples and 2 banana cost $2, so we can write:

3a + 2b = 2

Then,

4 apples and 4 bananas cost $3, so we can write:

4a + 4b = 3

We can solve for the variable b in equation 1. Shown below:

3a + 2b = 2\\2b=2-3a\\b=\frac{2-3a}{2}

Now we put this value of b into equation 2 and solve for cost of 1 apple, a. Shown below:

4a+4b=3\\4a+4(\frac{2-3a}{2})=3\\4a+4-6a=3\\2a=1\\a=\frac{1}{2}\\a=0.5

So each apples cost $0.5

82.

Let 1 pound of chocolate be cost "c"

Let 1 pound of peanut be cost "p"

4 lb of chocolate and 2 lb of peanut = $16, thus we can write:

4c + 2p = 16

Next,

2 lb of chocolate and 3 lb of peanut costed $12, so we can write:

2c + 3p = 12

We solve first equation for p:

4c + 2p = 16\\2p=16-4c\\p=\frac{16-4c}{2}\\p=8-2c

Now, we put this expression for p into equation 2 and solve for c:

2c + 3p = 12\\2c + 3(8-2c) = 12\\2c+24-6c=12\\4c=12\\c=3

So, 1 pound of chocolates cost $3
