A little girl counts using the fingers of her left hand as follows: She starts by calling her thumb 1, the first finger 2, middle finder 3, ring finger 4, and little finger 5. Then she reverses direction, calling the ring finger 6, middle finger 7, first finger 8 and thumb 9, after which she calls her first finger 10 and so on. If she continues to count in this manner, on which finger will she stop?
a) What if the girl counts from 1 to 10?
b) What if the girl counts from 1 to 100?
c) What if the girl counts from 1 to 1000?
Answer:
(a) Index finger
(b) Ring finger
(c) Index finger
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking thumb as standard for the question.
Thumb series 1 , 9 , 17 ,25, 33......
general term for this
a(n) = 1 + (n-1)8
= 1 + 8n -8
= 8n -7
(a) For 1 to 10
8n -7 = 10
8n = 16+1 (remainder)
so the thumb is for 9 and the next is index finger.
10th = index finger.
(b) for 1 to 100
8n - 7 = 100
8n= 107
107 = 13x 8 + 3(remainder)
so the third finger from thumb is Ring finger
100th = Ring finger
(c) 8n - 7 = 1000
8n = 1007
1007= 125x8 +7 (remainder)
so the 7th finger next to thumb is Index finger
1000th = index finger

PLEASE HELP! Ann needs to buy plastic forks. Brand A has a box of 25 forks for $2.12. Brand B has a box of 72 forks for $5.09 .
Find the unit price for each brand. Then state which brand is the better buy based on the unit price.
Round your answers to the nearest cent. And thank you if you answer this I really need the answer.
Answer:
To find the price per spoon of brand A, divide the cost by the amount of spoons:
1.99 / 25 = 0.0796
Repeat this process for brand B:
3.89 / 42 = 0.0926
Brand A, at $0.08 a unit, is the better buy of brands A and B.

How do I solve this problem and check all the solutions?
Answer:
x-5=sqrt(2x+5)
then square both sides
x2-10x+25=2x+5
x2-8x+20=0
rest is trivial
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 ( subtract x from both sides )
- [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 - x ( divide all terms by - 1 )
[tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = x - 5 ( square both sides )
2x + 5 = (x - 5)²
2x + 5 = x² - 10x + 25 ( subtract 2x + 5 from both sides )
0 = x² - 12x + 20 ← in standard form
0 = (x - 2)(x - 10) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions
x = 2
2 - [tex]\sqrt{4+5}[/tex] = 2 - [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] = 2 - 3 = - 1 ≠ 5
Thus x = 2 is an extraneous solution
x = 10
10 - [tex]\sqrt{20+5}[/tex] = 10 - [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = 10 - 5 = 5 = right side
Thus x = 10 is the solution
A $ 4.00 sales tax is charged for a $ 50.00 purchase . At this rate, what is the sales tax for a 1200.00 purchase
Sales tax for the purchase of $50 is $4
Therefore, x% of 50 = 4
(x%) 50 = 4
x/100 x 50 = 4
x/2 = 4
x = 4 x 2
x = 8
Therfore, there is a 8% sales tax on the purchase.
Sales tax on the purchase of $1200 = 8% of 1200
= 8/100 x 1200
= 8 x 12
= 96
A $96.00 sales tax is charged on a purchase of $1200.00
As an estimation we are told 5 miles is 8 km.
Convert 60 km to miles.
Answer:
37.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the rate of conversion by dividing kilometers by miles. 5÷8=1.6, so 1.6 km = 1 mile. Now we can divide 60 by 1.6 to find miles.
[tex]60/1.6=37.5[/tex]

Can someone help me solve this equation? x2 + x - 30 = 0
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
x x 2 + x - 30 = 0 use the commutative property to reorder the terms
2x + x - 30 = 0 collect like terms
3x - 30 = 0 move constant to the right hand side and change its sign
3x = 30 divide both sides of the equation by 3
x = 10

What is the slope of a line with the equation y = 5x + ⅖ ?
Answer:
The slope would be 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason why it would be five is because the slope formula is y=mx+b with m being your slope and b being your y-intercept.
Answer:
slope: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex] is the equation used to find the slope of an equation. The slope is ALWAYS the "m" value. So.... in this equation y=5+2/5... the "m" value is 5.... making the slope of the equation 5.

1.) Select the correct equation for the following situation. Mariana had 134
crystals in her collection. This was 38 less than Rajesh's collection. How
many crystals are in Rajesh's collection?
38r = 134
r+ 38 = 134
r - 38 = 134
38 - r = 134
Answer:
r minus 38 equals to 134 this might be m not certain
The correct equation is, [tex]r-38=134[/tex] and Rajesh have 172 crystals .
Let us consider that, Rajesh had r crystals.
Mariana had 134 crystals in her collection.
Since, Rajesh has 38 more crystal than Marina . So , if we subtract 38 from crystals Rajesh have then both have equal number of crystals.
So, [tex]r-38=134[/tex]
Now, find crystals present in Rajesh collection.
[tex]r-38=134\\\\r=134+38=172[/tex]
Thus, Rajesh have 172 crystals .

At a high school football game, admission is $5 for students and $10 for non-students. There were 500 people at the first game, and the school made $4,000 from admissions. In this activity, you will find the number of students and non-students at the game.
Please write the two equations algebraically and then solve :)
Answer:x = 200 students
y = 300 non-students
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 10y = 4000
x + y = 500
Set y = 500-x
5x + 10(500-x) = 4000
5x + 5000-10x
-5x + 5000 = 4000
-5x = -1000
x = 200 students
y = 300 non-students
Let's double checks
5(200) + 10(300)
1000 + 3000 = 4000
