Answer:

There are 650 cannonballs


Step-by-step explanation:

If you look closely in the picture, you can see that:

  • 1st row has 1 ball
  • 2nd row has 4 balls
  • 3rd row has 9 balls
  • 4th row has 16 balls

etc. etc.

We can see that the number of balls is the square of the row number. There are a total of 12 rows. So, rest of the rows has:

  • 5th row has 25 balls
  • 6th row has 36 balls
  • 7th row has 49 balls
  • 8th row has 64 balls
  • 9th row has 81 balls
  • 10th row has 100 balls
  • 11th row has 121 balls
  • 12th row has 144 balls

If we add up all those, we get total number of balls:

1+4+9+16+25=36+49+64+81+100+121+144=650

There are 650 cannonballs

we can start from top

we can see that

top has 1 ball

second top has 4 balls

third top has 9 balls

so, we will get series

1^2 +2^2+3^2+4^2+...........+12^2

now, we can add them

we can sum of squares of natural numbers formula

Sum=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}

Here , last term is 12^2

so, n=12

Sum=\frac{12(12+1)(2*12+1)}{6}

we will get

Sum=650

so, number of balls is 650...........Answer

∠CAT and ∠MUD are supplementary. If m∠CAT=11x+16 and m∠MUD=4x+14, find the measure of each angle.
Georgia [21]

Answers:

  • x = 10
  • angle CAT = 126 degrees
  • angle MUD = 54 degrees

=========================================================

Explanation:

∠CAT and ∠MUD are supplementary, which means the angle measures add to 180. They form a straight line.

( m∠CAT ) + ( m∠MUD ) = 180

( 11x+16 ) + ( 4x+14 ) = 180

11x+16 + 4x+14 = 180

(11x+4x) + (16+14) = 180

15x+30 = 180

15x = 180-30

15x = 150

x = 150/15

x = 10

Let's find each angle based on this x value

  • m∠CAT=11x+16 = 11*10+16 = 110+16 = 126 degrees
  • m∠MUD=4x+14 = 4*10+14 = 40+14 = 54 degrees

Those two angles add to 126+54 = 180 to confirm we do indeed have supplementary angles, and confirm the correct answers.
