The borders are shown in the picture attached.
As you can see, starting with border 1, we have 6 daises (white squares) surrounded by 10 tulips (colored squares). Through Jerry's expression we expected:
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(1 − 1) + 10 =
0 + 10 =
10 tulips.
When considering border 2, we expect:
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(2 − 1) + 10 =
8 + 10 =
<span>18 tulips.
Indeed, we have the 10 tulips from border 1 and 8 additional tulips, for a total of 18 tulips.
Then, consider border 3, we expect:
</span><span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(3 − 1) + 10 =
16 + 10 =
26<span> tulips.
Again, this is correct: we have the 10 tulips used in border 1 plus other 16 tulips, for a total of 26.
Therefore, Jerry's expression is
correct.</span>
Answer:
Your power function is y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The way I found it was.
0=0, so, the function multiply by zero, and have no other term to add
A number (one in a case) gives as a result: -2. So, one, elevated to ANY power results in one, every time. So, I have 1, as a factor and -2 as a result. One is as well a factor that delivers a result equal to the other factor. (3)(1)=3 , (8987)(1)=8987. So, the other factor must be -2
Then I checked all the table, and the results were consistent.
A) 20+10h
You know that you have 20 inches to start with, then it will grow 2h four times, or 8h total. Then it will grow h 2 times, or 2h. You add the 20, 8h, and 2h, to get 20+10h.
Hope this helps!
