Hi there, let x be 6x. Now, let's make an equation. x+6x=7x=35 ft. 35 ft ÷ 7 = 5 ft. So, the answer is 5 ft.

Why is it important to look at more than the first two numbers of a pattern to decide the rule for the pattern?

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

This is important because, the first few numbers might seem to follow a pattern but subsequent numbers might reveal a change in the rule.

Step-by-step explanation:

When studying patterns it is important to evaluate all the figures holistically instead of drawing conclusions based on just the first few numbers because there might be a change in what we felt was obvious on close observance of all the numbers. For example, observe the pattern;

2,4,6, 10, 14, 18, 20, 22, 24

The first two numbers show the addition of two. If a person decides to add 2 to all the figures, he would be wrong because after the first three figures, he would have to add 4 to the numbers.

Three numbers are in the ratio 3:9:10. If 10 is added to the last number, then the three numbers form an arithmetic progression.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

 The numbers are 6, 18, and 30 

Step-by-step explanation:

If the three numbers are in the ratio of 3:9:10,

let the numbers be 3x, 9x and 10x.

If 10 is added to the last number to form an arithmetic progression

Then, 3x 9x (10x+10) are the progression

The common difference of an arithmetic progression (d) = T₂ - T₁ = T₃ - T₂

T₂-T₁ = T₃ - T₂ .............. Equation 1

Where T₁ = first term of the progression, T₂ = Second term of the progression, T₃ = third term of the progression

Given: T₁ = 3x, T₂ = 9x, T₃ = 10x +10

Substituting these values into equation 1

9x-3x = (10x+10)-9x

Solving the equation above,

3x = 10+x

3x-x = 10

2x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 2.

Therefore the numbers are 6, 18, and 30
