what is the quenstion ?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The 99th tower contains 9900 blocks.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given, we were told that the nth tower is formed by stacking n blocks on top of an n times n square of blocks. This implies that the number of blocks in n tower will be:
n + n²
Now let us use the diagram to validate the idea.
Tower 1:
n = 1
Number of blocks = 1 + 1² = 2
Tower 2:
Number of blocks = 2 + 2² = 6
Tower 3:
Number of blocks = 3 + 3² = 12
Using same idea, we can obtain the number of blocks in the 99th tower as follow:
Tower 99:
n = 99
Number of blocks = 99 + 99² = 9900
Therefore, the 99th tower contains 9900 blocks.
The answer is x=4.
set the equations up: 8x-5=6x-3
Subtract 6x from one side and then the other side 2x-5=3
Add 5 from one side and then the other 2x=8
Divide 2 on each side which gets you x=4
The sum of 2 sides of a triangle needs to be greater than the length of the 3rd side.
14 + 29 = 43 (this is greater than 41)
14 + 41 = 55 (this is greater than 29)
29 + 41 = 70 (this is greater than 14)
(14, 29,41) can form a triangle.
1. x=4, y=0
3. x=2.6666, y=0.3333
