Do 2x2 first which is 4 and then 5+12 which is 17 . 17/4 is 4.25
Adding another card with value $25 would decrease the standard deviation
because it is closer to the mean the the current standard deviation.
This pattern appears to alternate between doubling and subtracting by 1.
To get from 3 to 6, we multiply by two.
To get from 6 to 5, we subtract one.
To get from 5 to 10, we multiply by two.
To get from 10 to 9, we subtract one.
To get from 9 to 18, we multiply by two.
To get from 18 to 17, we subtract one.
Therefore, next we need to multiply by two.
17 x 2 = 34
So, the next number is 34.
To find the number after, we subtract one.
34 - 1 = 33
Thus, the number after is 33.
In conclusion, the next two numbers are 34 and 33.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 6 = 7x - 5
Collecting like terms
7x - 7x = -5 - 6
The x is canceled out so no solution
