Constructing a Wall Answer: C (v*h+1000=3500) We know that the total number of bricks is 3500. To find the number of bricks in the wall, we have to multiply number of horizontal and vertical bricks, which is v*h. Add that to the bricks in the foundation we get total number of bricks. So, v*h+1000=3500 is the correct equation. Main Page

Constructing wood stairs Let s be the number of steps of 1st set of stairs, then total steps of in 2nd set of stairs = s + 1 then total steps of both stairs = s +(s+1) then s + (s+1) = 37 then 2*s + 1 = 37 then 2*s = 37-1 =36 Hence s=18… steps in 1st set of stairs Main Page
Constructing a bridge Let t be the toothpicks of the rest of the structure. then the base requires 2*t toothpicks toothpicks used in rest of the structure + toothpicks used in base + toothpicks used in road = total toothpicks t + 2*t + 1000 = 7000 3*t = 7000-1000 3*t = 6000 t= 2000 base requires 2*t = 4000 Main Page
