The number of white and grey blocks in the quilts follows a sequence given by the Design number of the quilt

The numbers and patterns of the blocks are;

a. Patterns;

  • The height of the white blocks is the Design number, while the rows are one more than the design number
  • The height of the outer grey blocks is 2 blocks more than the Design number, while their rows are 3 blocks more than the Design number

b. The function is \underline{p(n) = n \cdot (n + 1)}

c. The function is \underline{b(n) = (n + 2) \cdot (n + 3) -  n \cdot (n + 1)}}

d.  \underline{t(n) = (n + 2) \cdot (n + 3)  = b(n) - p(n) }

e. The design chosen is <u>Design 9</u>

The number of blocks is <u>132 blocks</u>

Reasons:

The pattern of the design are;

a. The column height of the grey blocks = 2 blocks more than the column height of the white blocks

Width of the outer grey blocks = 2 blocks more than the width of the inner white blocks

The number of white blocks in a design, <em>n</em> is the product of <em>n</em> and (n + 1)

The number of grey blocks in a design <em>n</em>, is the product of (n + 2) and (n + 3) less the number of white blocks in the design

b. Based on the above, the function that represent the number of picture blocks in Design <em>n</em>, is therefore;

  • p(n) = n·(n + 1)

c. Based on the above, the function that represent the number of border blocks in Design <em>n</em>, is therefore;

  • b(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3) - n·(n + 1)

d. The total number of blocks, t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3)

t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3) - n·(n + 1) + n·(n + 1)

  • t(n) = p(n) + b(n)

e. The given number of picture blocks = 90

The number of picture blocks in a design, n = n × (n + 1)

Therefore, given that the number of picture blocks is 90, we have;

90 = n × (n + 1)

n² + n - 90 = 0

(n + 10)·(n - 9) = 0

n = 9, or n = -10

Therefore, the design museum chooses is <u>Design 9</u>

The total number of blocks in a quilt design, t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3)

Total blocks in the design the art museum choses, t(9), is given as follows;

t(9) = (9 + 2)·(9 + 3) = <u>132 blocks</u>

If eight persons are having dinner together, in how many different ways can three order chicken, four order steak, and one order
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Total number of ways= 144 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of ways 3 can order chicken

= 3!

= 3*2*1

= 6

Number of ways 4 can order steak

= 4!

= 4*3*2*1

= 24

Number of ways 1 can order lobster

= 1!

= 1

Total number of ways= 24*6*1

Total number of ways= 144 ways
