1, 5, 17, 53, ... Use inductive reasoning to create a general rule for the sequence. A. Multiply by 3, then add 2. B. Multiply b

Basile [38]

The answer to this problem is the letter "A" which is "Multiply by 3, then add 2"
and can be written a N = 3n + 2
At first, we have initial value such n = 1
Then the second value is:
N = 3*1 + 2
N = 5
The third value is:
N = 3*5 + 2
N=17
The next values are:
N = 3*17 + 2
N= 53
The letter "A" is the inductive reasoning to the given sequence.

Ron's recycle shop had an old paper-shredding machine. Business was good, so he bought a new paper-shredding machine. The old ma

Answer: 1 hour 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The old machine could shred a truckload of paper in 4 hours.

Rate of work done by old machine = $\dfrac{1}{4}$

The new machine could shred the same truckload in 2 hours.

Rate of work done by new machine = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

Let 't' be the time taken by both of them working together , then we have the following equation:-

$\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1+2}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{4}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}$

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

Then, $\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times60=20\text{ minutes}$

Hence, it will take 1 hour 20 minutes to shred the same truckload of paper if Ron runs both shredders at the same time.
