Answer:
(A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Scott cycled for 10 minutes in first week, 15 minutes in second week,20 minutes in third week and 25 minutes in the fourth week which maintains a consistency in the line as there is consistent slope when drawn on a graph.
On, the other hand, harry cycled for 10 minutes in first week, 20 minutes in second, 40 minutes in third and 80 minutes in fourth week in which there is no consistency in the timings according to the weeks. Therefore, only, scott's method is linear as the number of minutes increased by an equal factor every week.
Answer: On the 29th day
Step-by-step explanation:
According to this problem, no lilypad dies and the lilypads always reproduce, so we can apply the following reasoning.
On the first day there is only 1 lilypad in the pond. On the second day, the lilypad from the first reproduces, so there are 2 lilypads. On day 3, the 2 lilypads from the second day reproduce, so there are 2×2=4 lilypads. Similarly, on day 4 there are 8 lilypads. Following this pattern, on day 30 there are 2×N lilypads, where N is the number of lilypads on day 29.
The pond is full on the 30th day, when there are 2×N lilypads, so it is half-full when it has N lilypads, that is, on the 29th day. Actually, there are lilypads on the 30th, and
lilypads on the 29th. This can be deduced multiplying succesively by 2.
