Horizontal line means that y is a constant. This means the line is y = -6.
The pattern is: Ducks always swim on that pond <em><u>in powers of 2</u></em> .
Monday ........ 2⁰ = 1
Tuesday ........ 2¹ = 2
Wednesday ... 2² = 4
Thursday ....... 2³ = 8
So
Friday ........... 2⁴ = 16
<em>Saturday ...... 2⁵ = 32</em> <=== the answer
AND ...
If they kept doing this for a month, then
on the 31st day there would be
2³⁰ = <em>1,073,741,824</em> (more than 1 billion) ducks out there !
A. His answer is incorrect. 2 cubed is 2 X 2 X 2, which is 8. Add 4 and you have the answer of 12.
B. He may have multiplied 2 X 3 and then added 4, instead of multiplying 2 three times.
You will receive a free beverage and free desert on your 60th visit.
Beverage- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Visits- 12, 24, 36 ,48 ,60
Desert- 1, 2, 3 ,4
Visits- 15, 30, 45, 60
Notice how for beverages at 60 visits you get your 6th drink for free, and for deserts, at you 60 visits you receive your 4 free desert.
So, since both numbers have the same number (60) of visits which is their common multiple between the 2, you answer is 60.
t=D/r
Divide r by both sides to get t by itself.
