Answer:
Steps 1 - 4 below explains it.
Step-by-step explanation:
The way that the soldiers get across the river and leave the boys in joint possession of the boat is;
1) The two 12- year - old boys will take the boat to the other side
2) Thereafter, one of the 12- year - old boys will return with the boat.
3) A soldier will now take the boat to the other side and the soldier will remain there while the other boy returns the boat.
4) Step 1 - 3 is a total of 4 trips. Thus, trip would be repeated the total of n times and the n number of soldiers would get across the river and leave the boys in joint possession of the boat after the total of 4n trips.
Answer:
f. the sequence goes by the half of the previous number.
= 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8...
g. the sequence goes by adding the consecutive odd number added to the previous number.
first number= 3.
second number= 3+3
= 6
third number= 6+5
= 11
fourth number= 11+7
= 18
fifth number= 18+9
= 27
sixth number= 27+11
= 38
seventh number= 38+13
= 51, etc.
= 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38, 51...
If they are proportional, then y/x should always be the same.
So 9/2= 4.5
We need to find the y value at x=3 to make y/x equal 4.5
4.5 = y/3
y = 4.5*3 = 13.5
