How many pairs of consecutive natural numbers have a product of less than 40000? I am in 5th grade. This is supposed to be easy

for me, but it's not. I would greatly appreciate any help at all. Thank you, Anonymous

Answer:

There are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that such statement can be translated into this inequation:

n \cdot (n+1) < 40000

Now we solve this inequation to the highest value of n that satisfy the inequation:

n^{2}+n < 40000

n^{2}+n -40000

The Quadratic Formula shows that roots are:

n_{1,2} = \frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4\cdot (1)\cdot (-40000)}}{2\cdot (1)}

n_{1,2} = -\frac{1}{2}\pm \frac{1}{2} \cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{1} = -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{1} \approx 199.501

n_{2} = -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{2} \approx -200.501

Only the first root is valid source to determine the highest possible value of n, which is n_{max} = 199. Each natural number represents an element itself and each pair represents an element as a function of the lowest consecutive natural number. Hence, there are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, since a regular coin has two sides one heads and one tails. That gives us a 50% probability of it landing on either side of the coin. Since we would like to know the probability of getting 2 heads in a row, we would need to multiply the probability of the first toss landing on heads with the second toss landing on heads, like so...

\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{4}

So we can see that the probability of us getting two heads in a row is that of \frac{1}{4}[/tex] or 25%.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
