Infinite number of solutions. <span />
Oh, I SEE what da pattern is! =D
You see, like in this problem:
2 + 5 = 12
They did 5 times 2 = 10, plus da 2 in da problem = 12.
Same with 3 + 6 = 21, 6 times 3 = 18, 18 plus da 3 given in da problem = 21.
Just like 1 + 4 = 5, 4 times 1 = 4, plus da 1 in da problem = 5.
SO,
with that strategy, 8 +11 = 96, because 8 times 11 = 88, plus da 8 given in da problem = 96.
I hope I helped! =D
The mistake made by George is; D:George should have averaged the two differences instead of the two bounds.
<h3>How to Solve Successive Approximations?</h3>
In Mathematics, successive approximation can be defined as a classical method that is used in Calculus for solving integral equations or initial value problems.
In this question, George started the first iteration of successive approximation by using the lower and upper bounds of the graph. However, we can deduce that George made a mistake instep 5 because he should have used x = 3/2 as the new upper bound.

x = the length of one piece
y = the length of the other piece
the total length is 100 cm this means
x + y = 100
one piece is 16 inches longer than the other
first we need to convert inches to cm:
1 in = 2.54 cm
16 in = 2.54*16 = 40.64
now we can write
x = y + 40.64
by solving the system of equations
x + y = 100
x = y + 40.64
we find
x = 70.32 cm
y = 29.68 cm
the lengths of the two pieces are 70.32 cm and 29.68 cm.
2x + 4y + 2 = 3y + 5
2x + 4y - 3y + 2 - 5 = 0
2x + y - 3 = 0
