Question 61
At a certain ice cream parlor, customers can choose among five different ice cream flavors and can choose either a sugar cone or a waffle cone.
Considering both ice cream flavor and cone type, how many distinct triple-scoop cones with three different ice
Considering both ice cream flavor and cone type, how many distinct triple-scoop cones with three different ice
To form a triple-scoop cone with three different flavours chosen from five, combinations are used:\[\binom{5}{3} = 10\]Each combination can be served in 2 cone types (sugar or waffle):\[10 \times 2 = 20\]This gives the total number of distinct triple-scoop cones.

Question 63
Find a number whose double exceeds its half by exactly 99.
Let the number be \(x\).
Double of the number = \(2x\).
Half of the number = \(\frac{x}{2}\).
Given condition:\[2x - \frac{x}{2} = 99\]Find common denominator:\[\frac{4x - x}{2} = 99\]\[\frac{3x}{2} = 99\]Multiply both sides by 2:\[3x = 198\]\[x = 66\]
Double of the number = \(2x\).
Half of the number = \(\frac{x}{2}\).
Given condition:\[2x - \frac{x}{2} = 99\]Find common denominator:\[\frac{4x - x}{2} = 99\]\[\frac{3x}{2} = 99\]Multiply both sides by 2:\[3x = 198\]\[x = 66\]

Question 65
For a motorist there are three ways going from City A to City C. By way of bridge the distance is 20 miles and toll is $0.75. A tunnel between the two cities is a distance of 10 miles and toll is $1.00 for the vehicle and driver and $0.10 for each passenger. A two-lane highway without toll goes east for 30 miles to city B and then 20 miles in a northwest direction to City C. Which is the shortest route from B to C
From the description, the distance from City B to City C is explicitly stated as 20 miles via the toll-free highway. This provides a direct measurement between B and C, making it the shortest defined route in the context of the question.

Question 66
Complete the sequence in the series: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, __
The sequence follows triangular numbers, where each term is formed by adding consecutive natural numbers:
\(1 = 1\)
\(3 = 1 + 2\)
\(6 = 1 + 2 + 3\)
\(10 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4\)
\(15 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5\)
\(21 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6\)
\(28 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7\)
Next term:
\(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 36\)
Thus, the next number is 36.
\(1 = 1\)
\(3 = 1 + 2\)
\(6 = 1 + 2 + 3\)
\(10 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4\)
\(15 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5\)
\(21 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6\)
\(28 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7\)
Next term:
\(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 36\)
Thus, the next number is 36.
