SHE SPENT 15 MINUTES MORE. 1 hour is 60 minutes. 1/2 hour is 30 minutes and 1/4 hour is 15 minutes. 30-15=15
Answer:
If there is 1 at the top, then you have 1, then 2, then 3, etc.
total number of oranges equals:
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 16 + 17 + 18 <-- stop at 18 because this is the number of oranges at the base
You can use the formula:
sum of first n numbers = n*(n + 1)/2
-->
18*19/2 = 9*19 = 171
or you can figure it out (basically derive the above formula):
you have:
1 + 18 = 19
2 + 17 = 19
3 + 16 = 19
...
How many pairs do you have? Well, it's just the number of numbers: 1-18 = 18 numbers (divide by 2) = 9 pairs)
9 pairs of 19 = 9 * 19 = 171
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. isolate the variable by subtracting 7 on both sides: 4x=23-7
2. simplify: 4x=16
3. divide both sides by 4: x=16/4
4. simplify: x=4
A) is counting down by 3
