There are 4 cards facing up and the rest facing down
I'll just make a manual computation on how 1 member recruits his members until week 5. Then multiply the sum by 2.
old new
1: 1
2: 1 x 3 = 3 ⇒ 1 3 *only new members recruit 3 more
3: 3 x 3 = 9 ⇒ 4 9
4: 9 x 3 = 27⇒ 13 27
5: 27 x 3 = 81 ⇒ 40 81
40 + 81 = 121. Total number of members under 1 founding member.
121 x 2 founding members = 242 total number of members within 5 weeks.
Answer:
(x-1)(x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • 2 = 4
Step-2 : Find two factors of 4 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 3 .
-4 + -1 = -5
-2 + -2 = -4
-1 + -4 = -5
1 + 4 = 5
2 + 2 = 4
4 + 1 = 5
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
