Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Each y is 3 times the last one, so it's geometric, so exponential. 3 should appear as the base.
A) You will need 6 toothpicks.
B) You will need 5 cotton swabs. (rounded up)
Assume that the dimensions of the room in the plan are a (width ) by b (length),
such that a*b=30.
Since the scale is 1:100, a represents 100a, and b represents 100b.
So the actual dimensions are 100a by 100b.
The area is 100a*100b=a*b*10,000=30*10,000=300,000 (square units)
Answer: 300,000 (square units)
The thief originally stole 64 plants.
<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>
In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.
Here,
Let the number of plants originally stolen by the thief be x.
On the way out, the thief meets three security guards, one after another. To each security guard, the thief is forced to give one-half of the plants that he still had, plus 2 more.
Here,
For gourd 1 the planet is given = 1/2 x
For gourd 2 the planet is given = 1/2 * 1/2 x = 1/4 x
For gourd 3 the planet is given = 1/2*1/4 x = 1/8 x
Total plant given to the gourds = 1/2x +1/4x +1/8x + 2 = 7/x/8x +2
Finally, the thief leaves the nursery with 10 plants
x - 7x/8 + 2 = 10
x/8 = 8
x = 64
Thus, the thief stole 64 plants.

X = games won
y = games lost
x + y = 72
x = 2y + 15
2y + 15 + y = 72
3y + 15 = 72
3y = 72 - 15
3y = 57
y = 57/3
y = 19 <=== lost games
x = 2y + 15
x = 2(19) + 15
x = 53 <=== won games
