Jerry is planting white daisies and red tulips in his garden and he wants to choose a pattern in which the tulips surround the d

aisies. He uses tiles to generate patterns starting with two rows of three daisies. He surrounds these daisies with a border of tulips. The design continues as shown. Jerry writes the expression 8(b − 1) + 10 for the number of tulips in each border, wherein b is the border number and b ≥ 1. Complete the explanation to explain why Jerry's expression is correct.

The borders are shown in the picture attached.

As you can see, starting with border 1, we have 6 daises (white squares) surrounded by 10 tulips (colored squares). Through Jerry's expression we expected:
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(1 − 1) + 10 =
0 + 10 =
10 tulips.

When considering border 2, we expect: 
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(2 − 1) + 10 =
8 + 10 =
<span>18 tulips.
Indeed, we have the 10 tulips from border 1 and 8 additional tulips, for a total of 18 tulips.

Then, consider border 3, we expect:
</span><span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(3 − 1) + 10 =
16 + 10 =
26<span> tulips.
Again, this is correct: we have the 10 tulips used in border 1 plus other 16 tulips, for a total of 26.

Therefore, Jerry's expression is correct.</span>

The answer is 1.5. We can find this by arranging the data set from least to greatest, 011234, and then finding the middle number. Since the amount of spaces is even, we need to find the number in between 1 and 2. The answer is 1.5!

Please mark brainliest.

Hope this helps!
