PLEASE HELP!!! When thinking of things that “fall in the fall,” perhaps the first things that come to your mind are leaves? For many people around the country, the leaves are falling from their trees, and hours of raking are necessary. Joe decided that he would try to make some extra money by raking the leaves in his neighbors’ yards. Joe figured he would need approximately seven bags per yard in which to collect the leaves. The bags are sold 10 to a box, and Joe is planning on raking 14 yards. How many boxes of bags
must he buy?

Another thing that seems to “fall in the fall” is the temperature. Heather noticed that the high temperature on October 21st was 66 degrees, the high temperature on October 26th was 63 degrees and the high temperature on October 31st was 60 degrees. It appears that the high temperatures on every fifth day are forming an arithmetic sequence. If this sequence were to continue, on what date would the high temperature be 33 degrees?

A third thing that tends to “fall in the fall” is people’s amount of physical activity. It is believed that people generally gain weight in the colder months in large part due to this lack of physical activity. Lou decided to be proactive about this and promised himself he would exercise at least four days of every calendar week (or every Sunday through Saturday time period). If Lou never wants to skip exercising on consecutive days within a calendar week, and he exercises exactly four days out of the seven, how many
different workout schedules are possible for a calendar week?
