Answer:
A and B are correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Student C is wrong because they broke up 3/4 into
2/2 + 1/2
but 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2, which is not equal to 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
the patern (3n - 1) is incorrect,
the correct pattern should be
Tn = n² + 1
8 as that means what two of the same number makes up , in this case 64. 8x8=64
Let "x" be a substitute for "a number"
1/3(x)=x-12 Multiply by 3
x=3x-36 Get n onto the same side of the equation
2x=36 Divide by 2
x=18
That's your answer.
For me personally, the easiest way to do this is by isolating the x² term, and finding the square root of both sides. The hardest way (well actually, the longest way) would be to use the quadratic formula. It just complicates things unnecessarily.
