Answer:
if they are similar then their sides are proportional and the following would be true:
40/30 = 48/36
reduce both sides:
4/3 = 4/3
so, yes, they are similar.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of red beads are increasing by 2 for each new pattern
The next number of reds will be 12. ( in patern 5)
number of blue beads in pattern 5 will be 15 ( increasing by 3 )
nth term for red = 4 + 2 (n-1) ( its an arithmetic sequence)
nth term for blue = 3 + 3(n - 1) - as above ,arithmetic.
Total beads in pattern 45 is
No. red beads in pattern 26 = 4 + 2(26-1) = 4 + 50 = 54
No blue beads in pattern 60 = 3 + 3(59) = 180
Total number of beads in pattern 45 is:-
4 + 2(44) + 3 + 3(44) = 227
Step 1: Circle the place value of the digit to be rounded. This is the rounding digit. Step 2: Look to the neighboring digit on the right. Step 3: a) If the neighboring digit is less than five (0 - 4), keep the rounding digit the same.
I think i am doing this right i am not sure. First you need to add up all the sides (100+38+22+15) it would equal 175 then you need to subtract it from 360 and get the missing value (x) then the answer would be 185
