3 1/2 divided by 5. this would give you .7 pounds of candy per person
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.
Since the perimeter must not exceed 291.
Let the third side be x.
x + 87 + 64 < 291
x + 151 < 291.
x < 291 -151.
x < 140. (First)
But for a triangle there is what is called the Triangle Inequality Theorem. That given the two sides of a tringle, the third side of the triangle must greater than the positive difference between the two sides and less than the sum of the two sides.
So for this case. 87 and 64.
x > ( 87 - 64). x > 23.
x < (87 + 64) x < 151. Combine both inequalities.
23 < x < 151 (second).
Combining First and second. Both must be satisfied.
So we have a more accurate answer as:
23 < x < 140. x is greater than 23 and x is less than 140.
x could be 24, 25, 26, 27, ......, 139. cm.
I hope this helps.
Question 1)
Given
The expression is 5xy
To determine
Find the value of 5xy if x = 2 and y = 3
5xy
substitute x = 2 and y = 3
5xy = 5(2)(3)
= 5(6)
= 30
Therefore, the value of 5xy = 30 if x = 2 and y = 3.
