After folding the paper 6 times, the number of boxes created will be 64.

We are given that:

Maria folded a piece of paper in half 6 times which can be analyzed as:

When she will fold it 1 time, the number of box created will be = 2.

Then, when she will again fold it 2nd time, the number of boxes created will be = 4

Then, in the 3rd time, the number of boxes created will be = 8.

So, we get the sequence as:

2, 4, 8 ...

This is a geometric sequence.

So, we get the 6th term as:

aₙ = a rⁿ⁻¹

Here a = 2, r = 2 and n = 6

Substituting the values, we get that:

a₆ = (2) (2)⁶⁻¹

a₆ = (2) (2)⁵

a₆ = 2 × 32

a₆ = 64

Therefore, we get that, after folding the paper 6 times, the number of boxes created will be 64.

This table shows numbers of sweets in some tubes, but a coffee stain has deleted one of the figures.

To get the answer, you need to think of it like a see-saw.
Both sides must equal the same relative to 33.5. For example, 32 is 1.5 away from 33.5 so you could say you have 1.5*4 (because theres 4 tubes with 32 sweets). If you were to do this for the whole table, it would look something like this:

(1.5*4)+(0.5*x)=(0.5*9)+(1.5*1)+(2.5*1)

This simplifies to:

6+0.5x=8.5
0.5x=2.5
x= \frac{2.5}{0.5}
x=5

This method can sometimes be inefficient depending on how many values but is probably the simplest way to solve this problem.

hope this helps :)

(sorry the other way is kinda hard to explain possibly ask your teacher tomorrow)

Write an equation of the line that passes through (4, 5) and is perpendicular to the line y = -4x+6.
andrey2020 [161]
Y = -1/4x + c
5 = -1/4 x 4 + c
5 = -1 + c
c = 6
y = -1/4 + 6

Answer:

  • 1 pound- $4.7
  • 2 pounds- $9.4
  • 3 pounds- $14.1
  • 4 pounds- $18.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Just hardware's prices are 0.30 greater per pound, so the equation would be y=4.7x. Substitute x in for each of the values to get the prices above.
