Answer:
2(3x+4) = 11x-17
6x+8 = 11x-17
25=-5x
x=-5
11x-17
55-17
38
AC = 38
CD = 38
49-38 = 11
DE = 11
Let me know if this helps!
The next three terms of sequence are 65, 129 and 257
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given sequence is:</u></em>
2, 3, 5, 9, 17, 33
We have to find the next three terms in sequence
<em><u>Let us find the logic used in this sequence</u></em>

Thus the sequence is increasing by 2 raised to power 0, 1, 2 and so on
<em><u>Thus the next three terms are found by:</u></em>

Thus the next three terms of sequence are 65, 129 and 257
f(3) = -4 as 3 lies between 2 and 5
Answer:
144?
Step-by-step explanation:
1+3+5+7+9+11 blah blah blah...

Let the number of coats Michael has = x
As given, Minnie gathers 3 times as many coats as Michael
So, Minnie has = 3x
Total number of coats = 52
Equation becomes,



Hence, Michael contributed 13 coats.
