Answer:
40 %
Step-by-step explanation:
1, a.) The two specific conjectures are in the first image.
1, b.) The two general conjectures are in the second image.
2, a.) Two specific conjectures for this pattern are:
- The common difference between two consecutive terms is 3.
- And the given difference is A.P.
2, b.) From our observation two general conjecture is that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference is 3.
For finding its nth term we can use the formula: a(n) = a + (n-1) x d.
2, c.) A formula for the given pattern is 5 + (n-1)3, where n is the number of the term.
This is solved by setting up two equations and then using one to answer the other.
The first step (use what is given to set up the two separate equations)
We are looking for two numbers, let us call them X and Y.
We are told that X + Y = 59
We are also told that (9 more than) 9+ (4times the smaller number) 4Y is the bigger number X
Then we combine that into 9+4Y=X
so we now have two separate equations and we can use one to solve the other. Everywhere we have X in the first equation, we will fill in with the second equation
(9+4Y) +Y = 59 [then combine like terms]
9+5Y=59 [subtract 9 from both sides]
5Y=50 [divide both sides by 5 to isolate the Y]
Y=10 [now plug this into either equation to solve for X]
9+4(10)=X
9+40=X
<u><em>49=X and 10=Y</em></u>
