Answer:
If there is 1 at the top, then you have 1, then 2, then 3, etc.
total number of oranges equals:
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 16 + 17 + 18 <-- stop at 18 because this is the number of oranges at the base
You can use the formula:
sum of first n numbers = n*(n + 1)/2
-->
18*19/2 = 9*19 = 171
or you can figure it out (basically derive the above formula):
you have:
1 + 18 = 19
2 + 17 = 19
3 + 16 = 19
...
How many pairs do you have? Well, it's just the number of numbers: 1-18 = 18 numbers (divide by 2) = 9 pairs)
9 pairs of 19 = 9 * 19 = 171
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
The sunflower is 2.387 meters tall.
The question is asking: which rounding will result in the greatest value?
To see, we need to round 2.387 to meter, tenth meter, and hundredth meter.
Meter - 2 meters
Tenth meter - 2.4 meters
Hundredth meter - 2.39 meters
As you see, rounding to the tenth meter gives the greatest value of 2.4. Therefore, Bahir should use a decimal rounded to the tenth meter.
You would use unit rate for this. If Austin makes $209 in 11 hours, then he makes 209/11 = 19 dollars in 1 hour.
Then, we can make a proportion:
$19/1 hour = $152/ x hours
Cross multiply:
152 = 19x
Solve for x to get:
x = 8 hours.
