Answer:
<u><em>6</em></u> rolls because the total perimeter is 102 ft and five rolls is only 100 feet. So she needs <em><u>6</u></em> rolls.
Step-by-step explanation:
to find perimeter, add up all the side lengths.
so 15*4 (it's easier than 15+15+15...)
60 ft.
now we have to use Pythagorean's Theorum to find corner to corner.
so
we have a and b
do the math...
225+225= 450
square root of 450=
21.213
double that because it's used twice (corner to corner and corner to corner)
42.426
now add it all up
42.426 + 60 = 102.426
we can round
102
20*5 = 100
so she needs 6
MY ORIGINAL ERROR WAS 5, BUT 5 TIMES 20 IS ONLY 80, SO THEREFORE 6 IS REQUIRED SO THERE IS ENOUGH TO COVER 102.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
(1/3) x = (5/6)
Discussion:
I think you are asking for this equation:
(1/3) x = (5/6) => multiply both sides by 3
(1/3) 3 x = (5/6) 3 => as (1/3) *3 = 1
x = 5*3/6
x= 15/6
x = 5/2 = 2.5
Thank you,
MrB
Between 10 and 11, all the others would be to much or to little
We have been given the sequence 2,3,5,9,17.
We can write the terms of this sequence as

From the above term we can see that for the first term we take exponent 0 on 2 and then add 1 .
For second term we take exponent 1 on 2 and then add 1 .
For third term we take exponent 2 on 2 and then add 1 .
Using this fact for the next term of the sequence i.e. 6th term, we can take exponent 5 on 2 and then add 1 .
Therefore, next term of the sequence is given by

Therefore, the next term is 33.
Using the above facts, the pattern is given by
