The middle section is n(n+1)
The top row is n+2
The bottom row is 2n+1
So the rule for the total number of tiles will be the sum of the above rules...
s(n)=n(n+1)+n+2+2n+1
s(n)=n^2+n+n+2+2n+1
s(n)=n^2+4n+3
No they’re not equivalent because 4(t+12) =68 and 4t+12=32
The answer is 52. remember PEMDAS (parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) you can use "please excuse my dear aunt sally" to help you remember! :)
