Astrid is in charge of building a new fleet of ships. Each ship requires 40 tons of wood, and accommodates 300 sailors. She receives a delivery of 4 tons of wood each day. The deliveries can continue for 100 days at most, afterwards the weather is too bad to allow them. Overall, she wants to build enough ships to accommodate at least 2100 sailors. How much wood does Astrid need to accommodate 2100 sailors?

Astrid needs 280 tons of wood to build ships that can accommodate 2100 sailors

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, in this question, we want to know the amount of wood needed by Astrid to accommodate 2100 sailors.

From the question, we can see that 40 tons are needed to build a ship that can accommodate 300 sailors.

Now, we want to make a calculation for the amount of wood needed for 2100 sailors.

Let’s have it this way;

40 tons = 300 sailors

x tons = 2100 sailors

So mathematically,

x * 300 = 2100 * 40

x = (2100 * 40)/300

x = 280 tons of wood

We can see that 280 tons of wood are needed to build ships that can accommodate 2100 sailors

x=30

step-by-step explanation:

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
