Hey there! :)
Answer:
a) 32 sticks.
b) 5n + 2 sticks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this by finding the pattern.
Pattern # 1 = 7 sticks.
Pattern #2 = 12 sticks
Pattern #3 = 17 sticks.
We can see an increase of 5 sticks within each. We can use this to write an equation:
f(n) = 7 + 5(n-1)
***Where n is the term number
You can simplify the equation to become:
f(n) = 7 + 5n - 5
f(n) = 5n + 2.
Use this equation to solve for pattern # 6:
f(6) = 7 + 5(n-1)
f(6) = 7 + 5(5)
f(6) = 7 + 25
f(6) = 32.
Let the weight if a whole pizza be x grams
Then 1/4 of a pizza weighs x/4 grams and one eighth weighs x / 8. The difference is 32 grams so we can make the following equation:-
x/4 - x/8 = 32
x / 8 = 32
Multiplying both sides by 8:-
x = 8*32 = 256
Answer is 256 grams.
