4,6,8 are being counted by twos so the next one is 10
4•3= 12, 6+3=9, 8-3=6, the next operation I assume would be division so 10/3= 3.34
If they get unexpected results they could note what they could've done wrong or what they could change in a next trail of experiments. Or look back and see what different happened to they could've hypothesized. There could be many different courses on what to do next.
Answer:
x=-4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-12=12x
3x-12x=12
-9/-3=12/-3
then -3 cancels
3x/3=-4/3
then 3 cancels 3
so x=-4/3
<span>tan(15) =
sin(15) / cos(15) =
sin(45 - 30) / cos(45 - 30) =
[ sin(45)cos(30) - sin(30)cos(45) ] / [ cos(45)cos(30) + sin(45)sin(30)]
Since sin(45) = cos(45) = √2/2, you can just factor that out from the top and bottom
[ cos(30) - sin(30) ] / [ cos(30) + sin(30)]
[ √3/2 - 1/2 ] / [ √3/2 + 1/2]
(√3 - 1) / (√3 + 1)
(√3 - 1)^2 / (√3+1)(√3 - 1)
(√3 - 1)^2 / (3 - 1)
(3 - 2√3 +1) / 2
2 - √3
There's also a formula for tan(a-b), but I couldn't remember it off hand.</span>
