Answer:
be the second player, and always leave a multiple of 3 balloons
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to win, a player must force the other player to leave one or two balloons. To do that, the winning player must leave one more balloon than the maximum number that can be popped. That is, the winner will be the player who leaves 3 balloons,
Working backward, we find that the winner must leave a multiple of 3 after each turn. Since the starting number is a multiple of 3, the first player must lose if the second player plays optimally.
The winning strategy is ...
- be the second player
- always leave a multiple of 3 balloons.
The isosceles triangle is missing so i have attached it.
Answer:
Length of unknown side = 5p + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In isosceles triangle, two of the sides are equal. In the attached triangle, we see that one of the equal sides is given as 5p + 3.
Thus,the second equal side is also 5p + 3.
Now, perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the three sides.
We have two sides and let the third side be denoted as x.
Thus;
Perimeter = (5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x
We are given perimeter = 15p + 12
Thus;
(5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x = 15p + 12
10p + 6 + x = 15p + 12
Rearranging, we have;
x = 15p - 10p + 12 - 6
x = 5p + 6
Answer:4/15
Step-by-step explanation:
1. multiply and divide (left to right)3/5
=3/5-1/3
2.multiply and divide (left to right) 1/3
=3/5-1/3
3.add and subtract (left to right) 3/5-1.3:4/15
=4/15
