This is a classic math problem, and it is not solved in a normal way.
<span>1+4=5
2+5=12
3+6=21
8+11=?
There is a pattern that can be spotted. 2+5 does not equal twelve, however 2*(2+5) does equal 12. Below is how to solve the rest of the equations:
</span>1+4=5 -> 1*(4+1)=5
2+5=12 -> 2*(5+1)=12
3+6=21 -> <span>3*(6+1)=21 </span>
8+11=? -> <span>8*(11+1)=96
</span>
This is one way to answer the problem, HOWEVER there is another way to answer the problem that gives the SAME answer, but many people mistakenly believes it gives a different answer. If anyone tries to post the other way of doing this problem, but tells you the answer is 40, please comment on this post or message me and let me know. I will explain why the answer is actually 96 either way.
Answer:
No, it is not in scientific notation. The first factor is not greater than or equal to 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Scientific notation is a method of writing numbers as the product of two factors where the first factor is a number whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10.
If
is the number of members under 25, then we have
Answer:
The slope of a line perpendicular to this line is -1/3. The slope of a line parallel to this line would be 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have opposite(sign) and reciprocal slopes.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage increase of something is often represented in a formula of a format like this:
X=Ar^t
Where X represents the total amount after t years.
A or 87000 in this case represents the starting value, which is this case is the starting population of the town. r or 1.12 represents the percentage increase, if it increases by 12% than the next year has 1.12 times as many people as the previous year so this is represented by 1.12 rather than say 0.12 which would indicate a 88% decrease instead. t is the time, no. of years in this case, that has elapsed since 1996.
This formula basically means that a town population of 87000 increases by 12% for every year of time that elapses.
Hope this helped!
