Well... - 9x+4y
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of tiles in the design is 1 + 2 + 3 + ...
We can model this as an arithmetic series, where the first term is 1 and the common difference is 1. The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic series is:
S = n/2 (2a₁ + d (n − 1))
Given that a₁ = 1 and d = 1:
S = n/2 (2(1) + n − 1)
S = n/2 (n + 1)
Since S ≤ 60:
n/2 (n + 1) ≤ 60
n (n + 1) ≤ 120
n must be an integer, so from trial and error:
n ≤ 10
Mr. Tong should use 10 tiles in the final row to use the most tiles possible.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2(5-4g) + 3g - 11 = 5(g-3) - 12 - 3g (remove the parantheses)
10 - 8g + 3g - 11 = 5g - 15 - 12 -3g (Calculate and collect like terms)
-1 - 5g = 2g - 27 (move the terms)
-5g -2g = 27 + 1 (collect like terms and calculate)
-7g = -26 (divide both sides)
so G = 26/7
