Answer:
25,31,37
Step-by-step explanation:
n should be positive integer number. The three numbers in both sequences have different term number n but same value. We can equalize each nth term in the question to "a" which represents one of the three numbers.
a=2n-1, then n=(a+1)/2
a=3n+1, then n=(a-1)/3
remember the two n above are different but both should be positive integer. That means, we have to find the "a" number that gives me an integer n for the first equation. The possible numbers between 20 to 40 are 22,25,28,31,34,37,40.
The possible numbers for the second equation are 21,23,25,27,29,31,33,35,37,39.
Now find the common numbers between the two sets above. They are 25,31,37
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 120 bottles of Cola and 120 bottles of Sprite.
You can exchange 3 empty Cola bottles for a new bottle of Sprite.
You can exchange 4 empty Sprite bottles for a new bottle of Cola.
You can borrow empty bottles, but must return them in the end.
What is the maximal number of bottles of drink that you can drink? Prove the optimality of your result.
As this is a puzzle, please give short and clever answers rather than tedious bruteforce calculations.
The x-axis is usually the horizontal axis, while the y-axis is the vertical axis. They are represented by two number lines that intersect perpendicularly at the origin, located at (0, 0), as shown in the figure below.
