(a) List the numbers: 1 + 2 + ๏Œ + 98 + 99 99 + 98 + ๏Œ + 2 + 1 There are 100 sums of 303. Thus the total can be found by computing 100โ‹…303 = 15,150. 2 100 + 100 + ๏Œ + 100 + 100 There are 99 sums of 100. Thus the total can be found by computing 99โ‹…2100 = 4950. (Another way of looking at this problem is to realize there are 99 = 49.5 pairs of 2 sums, each of 100; thus 49.5๏ƒ— 100 = 4950.) (b) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last, dividing the result by the common difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must -1 + 1 = 501 be accounted for). Thus 1001 2 (d) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last, dividing the result by the common difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must be accounted for). Thus 4004-4 + 1 = 100 terms. List the numbers: 4 + 8 + ๏Œ + 396 + 400 400 + 396 + ๏Œ + 8 + 4 404 + 404 + ๏Œ + 404 + 404 terms.

(a) There are 501 sums of 1002. Thus the total can be found by computing 501โ‹…1002 = 251, 001. 2 (c) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last, dividing the result by the common difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must be accounted for). Thus 3003-3 + 1 = 100 (b) terms. Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 1 2 Chapter 1: An Introduction to Problem Solving When the stack in (a) and a stack of the same size is placed differently next to the original stack in (a), a rectangle containing 100 (101) blocks is created. Since each block is represented twice, the desired sum is 100 (101) 2 = 5050. While the above represents a specific example, the same thinking can be used for any natural number n to arrive at a formula n(n ๏€ซ 1) 2. 3. There are 1471-36 + 1 = 112 terms. List the numbers: 36 + 37 + ๏Œ + 146 + 147 147 + 146 + ๏Œ + 37 + 36 183 + 183 + ๏Œ + 183 + 183 There are 112 sums of 183. Thus the total can be found by computing 1122โ‹…183 = 10, 248. 4. (a) Make a table as follows; there are 9 rows so there are 9 different ways. 6-cookie packages 2-cookie packages single-cookie packages 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 1 0 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 2 4 0 2 4 6 8 10 (b) Make a table as follows; there are 12 rows so there are 12 different ways. 6-cookie 2-cookie single-cookie packages packages packages 2 0 0 1 3 0 1 2 2 1 1 4 1 0 6 0 0 6 5 0 2 0 4 4 0 3 6 0 2 8 0 1 10 0 0 12 5. If each layer of boxes has 7 more than the previous layer we can add powers of 7: 70 = 1 (red box) 71 = 7 (blue boxes) 72 = 49 (black boxes) 73 = 343 (yellow boxes) 74 = 2401 (gold boxes) 1 + 7 + 49 + 343 + 2401 = 2801 boxes altogether. 6. Using strategies from Poylaโ€™s problem solving list identify subgoals (solve simpler problems) and make diagrams to solve the original problem. 1 triangle; name this the โ€œunitโ€ triangle. This triangle is made of 4 unit triangles. Counting the large triangle there are 5 triangles Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. Assessment 1-1A: Mathematics and Problem Solving 3 The first row sums to 17 + a + 7 = 24 + a. So a = 66 – 24 = 42. The last column sums to Unit triangles 4 unit triangles 9 unit triangles 9 3 1 13 total triangles 7 + b + 27 = 34 + b. So b = 66 – 34 = 32. The first column sums to 17 + 12 + c = 29 + c. So c = 66 – 29 = 37. The second column sums to 42 + 22 + d = 64 + d . So d = 66 – 64 = 2. Unit triangles 4 unit triangles 9 unit triangles 16 unit triangles 16 7 3 1 There are 27 triangles in the original figure. 7. Observe that E = (1 + 1) + (3 + 1) + ๏Œ + (97 + 1) = O + 49. Thus, E is 49 more than O. Alternative strategy: ๏€ + 98 O + E = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + ๏Œ + 97 ๏€ซ = 11. Debbie and Amy began reading on the same day, since 72 pages for Debbie ๏‚ธ 9 pages per day = 8 days. Thus Amy is on 6 pages per day ยด 8 days = page 48. 12. The last three digits must sum to 20, so the second to last digit must be 20 – (7 + 4) = 9. Since the sum of the 11th , 12th, and 13th digits is also 20, the 11th digit is 20 – (7 + 9) = 4. 98(99) = 49(99) 2 รฆ 49(50) รถรท E = 2(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ๏Œ + 49) = 2 รงรง = 49(50) รงรจ 2 รทรทรธ O = O + E – E = 49(99) – 49(50) = 49(49). So O is 49 less than E. 8. Bubba is last; Cory must be between Alababa and Dandy; Dandy is faster than Cory. Listing from fastest to slowest, the finishing order is then Dandy, Cory, Alababa, and Bubba. 9. Make a table. $20 bills $10 bills $5 bills 2 2 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 3 2 1 0 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 2 0 2 4 6 0 2 4 6 8 10 There are twelve rows so there are twelve different ways. 10. The diagonal from the left, top corner to the right, bottom corner sums to 17 + 22 + 27 = 66. We can continue in this fashion until we find that A is 9, or we can observe the repeating pattern from back to front, 4, 9, 7, 4, 9, 7, โ€ฆ and discover that A is 9. 13. Choose the box labeled Oranges and Apples (Box B). Retrieve a fruit from Box B. Since Box B is mislabeled, Box B should be labeled as having the fruit you retrieved. For example, if you retrieved an apple, then Box B should be labeled Apples. Since Box A is mislabeled, the Oranges and Apples label should be placed on Box A. These leave only one possibility for Box C; it should be labeled Oranges. If an orange was retrieved from Box B, then Box C would be labeled Oranges and Apples and Box A should be labeled Apples. 14. The electrician made $1315 for 4 days at $50 per hour. She spent $15 per day on gasoline so 4 โ€ข $15 = $60 on gasoline. The total is then $1315 + $60 = $ 1375. At $50 per hour, she worked 1375 ๏€ฝ 27.5 hours. 50 15. Working backward: Top ๏€ญ 6 rungs ๏€ญ 7 rungs + 5 rungs ๏€ญ 3 rungs = top ๏€ญ 11 rungs, which is located at the middle. From the middle rung travel up 11 to the top or down 11 to the bottom. Along with the starting rung, then, there are 11 + 11 + 1 = 23 rungs. 16. There are several different ways to solve this. One is to use a variable. So, let a be equal to the number of apple pies that are baked. This means the number of cherry pies that are baked is Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 4 Chapter 1: An Introduction to Problem Solving represented by 4 โ€“ a. So, using 9 slices for an apple pie and 7 slices for a cherry pie, we get: 9a ๏€ซ 7(4 ๏€ญ a) ๏€ฝ 34 9a ๏€ซ 28 ๏€ญ 7a ๏€ฝ 34 2a ๏€ฝ 6 a๏€ฝ3 So the number of apple pies is 3. Therefore, the number of cherry pies is 1. Since the number of pies is small, another solution strategy is to make a table of all possible cases: Apple Cherry Apple Cherry Total Pies Pies slices slices slices 0 4 0 28 28 1 3 9 21 30 2 2 18 14 32 3 1 27 7 34 4 0 36 0 36 From the table, we can see there are 34 slices when there are three apple pies and one cherry pie. 17. Al made $50. Examine it step by step. First, Al spent $100 on the CD player. At this point, he is down $100. Once he sold it for $125, he is now $25 ahead. When he later bought it back for $150, he was down $125; but after selling it again for $175, he is now ahead $50. 18. Since the bat is $49 more than the ball, and the total spent is $50, we can use the guess and check method to solve. The table below represents possible guesses: Cost of bat Cost of ball sum $49.00 $0.00 $49.00 $49.25 $0.25 $49.50 $49.50 $0.50 $50.00 Another method would be to use a variable. Let the cost of the ball (in dollars) be the variable b. The cost of a bat in dollars, therefore, would be b + 49. Together the two costs must add up to 50, so: b + (b + 49) = 50 2b + 49 = 50 2b = 1 b = ยฝ. In terms of money, b = $0.50, 50 cents. Since the ball costs 50 cents, the bat must cost $49.50, and the sum of the price of bat and ball does equal $50. Assessment 1-1B 1. (a) List the numbers: 1 + 2 + ๏Œ + 48 49 + 48 + ๏Œ + 2 50 + 50 + ๏Œ + 50 + + + 49 1 50 There are 49 sums of 50. Thus the total can be found by computing 492โ‹…50 = 1225. (Another way of looking at this problem is = 24.5 pairs of to realize there are 49 2 sums, each of 50; thus 24.5 โ‹… 50 = 1225.) (b) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last, dividing the result by the common difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must be accounted for). Thus 2009 – 1 + 1 = 1005 terms. 2 List the numbers: 1 + 3 + ๏Œ + 2007 2009 + 2007 + ๏Œ + 3 2010 + 2010 + ๏Œ + 2010 + + + 2009 1 2010 There are 1005 sums of 2010. Thus the total can be found by computing 1005 โ‹… 2010 = 1, 010, 025. 2 (c) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last, dividing the result by the common difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must be accounted for). Thus 600 – 6 + 1 = 100 terms. 6 List the numbers: 6 + 12 + ๏Œ + 594 600 + 594 + ๏Œ + 12 606 + 606 + ๏Œ + 606 + + + 600 6 606 There are 100 sums of 606. Thus the total can be found by computing 606โ‹…100 = 30, 300. 2 (d) The number of terms in any sequence of numbers may be found by subtracting the first term from the last (or the last from the first if the first is greater than the last), dividing the result by the common Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. Assessment 1-1B 5 difference between terms, and then adding 1 (because both ends must be accounted for). Thus 1000 – 5 + 1 = 200 terms. 5 List the numbers: 1000 + 995 + ๏Œ + 10 5 + 10 + ๏Œ + 995 1005 + 1005 + ๏Œ + 1005 + 5 + 1000 + 1005 There are 200 sums of 1005. Thus the total can be found by computing 1005 โ‹…200 = 100, 500. 2 2. (a) The diagram illustrates how the numbers can be paired to form 50 sums of 101. The sum of the first 100 natural numbers is 50(101) = 5050. (b) A diagram similar to the one in 2a would illustrate how the numbers can be paired to form 100 sums of 202. Because there are an odd number of terms, the middle term, 101, is left unpaired. So, the sum of the first 201 natural numbers is 100 โ€ข 202 + 101 = 20,301. 3. There are 203 – 58 + 1 = 146 terms. terms 1 List the numbers: 58 + 59 + ๏Œ + 202 203 + 202 + ๏Œ + 59 261 + 261 + ๏Œ + 261 + + + 203 58 261 1 1 9 2 1 8 3 1 7 4 1 6 5 1 5 1 2 8 5. Since there are two different color socks in the drawer, drawing only two socks does not guarantee finding a matching pair; you could get one sock of each color. However, once you draw a third sock, you are guaranteed to have a matching pair, since the third sock must match one or the other of the previous two socks. 6. There are 13 squares of one unit each; 4 squares of four units each; and one square 9 units; for a total of 18 squares. 7. P = 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + … + 99 Q = 5 + 7 + … + 99 + 101 Q – P = (5 + … + 99 + 101) (1 + 3 + 5 + … + 99) = (101) – (1 + 3) = 97 Q is larger than P by 97. 8. A diagram will help. There are 146 sums of 261. Thus the total can be found by computing 146 โ‹… 261 = 19, 053. 2 4. There are many answers to this problem. A systematic list is a good approach. Using only two numbers and addition, 5 rows give 5 different ways. One number Eleven minus the number 1 10 2 9 3 8 4 7 5 6 We can view 6 + 5 as a different way than 5 + 6 and continue in this manner to find 10 different ways. Or, we can find 7 more ways using three numbers as follows. The next step is 120 miles + 40 miles = 160 miles from Missoula. 9. (a) Marc must have five pennies to make an even $1.00. The minimum number of coins would have as many quarters as possible, or three quarters. The remaining 20/c must consist of at least one dime and one nickel; the only possibility is one dime and two nickels. The minimum is 5 pennies, 2 nickels, 1 dime, and 3 quarters, or 11 coins. (b) The maximum number of coins is achieved by having as many pennies as possible. It is a requirement to have one quarter, one dime, and one nickel = 40/c, so there may then be 60 pennies for a total of 63 coins. Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 6 Chapter 1: An Introduction to Problem Solving 10. Adding all the numbers gives 99. This means that each row, diagonal, and column must add to 99 ๏‚ธ 3 = 33. Write 33 as a sum of the numbers in all possible ways: 19 + 11 + 3 19 + 9 + 5 17 + 13 + 3 17 + 11 + 5 17 + 9 + 7 15 + 13 + 5 15 + 11 + 7 13 + 11 + 9 Summarizing the pattern: Number Nr. sums with number 3 2 5 3 7 2 9 3 11 4 13 3 15 2 17 3 19 2 (ii) If one side is heavier, take two of the three marbles and weigh them. If they are the same weight, the remaining marble is the heavier. If not, the heavier will be evident on this second weighing. 12. (a) There are: 1 partridge ยด 12 days = 12 gifts; 2 doves ยด 11 days = 22 gifts; 3 hens ยด 10 days = 30 gifts; 4 birds ยด 9 days = 36 gifts; 5 rings ยด 8 days = 40 gifts; 6 geese ยด 7 days = 42 gifts; 7 swans ยด 6 days = 42 gifts; 8 maids ยด 5 days = 40 gifts; 9 ladies ยด 4 days = 36 gifts; 10 lords ยด 3 days = 30 gifts; 11 pipers ยด 2 days = 22 gifts; and 12 drummers ยด 1 day = 12 gifts. So the gifts given the most by your true love was 42 geese and 42 swans. (b) 12 + 22 + ๏Œ + 22 + 12 = 364 gifts total. Thus 11 must be in the center of the square and 5, 9, 13, and 17 must be in the corners. One solution would be: 17 7 9 3 11 19 13 15 5 11. Answers may vary; two solutions might be to: (a) Put four marbles on each tray of the balance scale. Take the heavier four and weigh two on each tray. Take the heavier two and weigh one on each tray; the heavier marble will be evident on this third weighing. (b) This alternative shows the heavier marble can be found more efficiently, two steps rather than three. Put three marbles in each tray of the balance scale. (i) If the two trays are the same weight, the heavier marble is one of the remaining two. Weigh them to find the heavier. 13. (a) There must be 1 or 3 quarters for an amount ending in 5. Then dimes can add to $1.15 plus 4 pennies to realize $1.19. Thus: Quarters Dimes Pennies Total 3 4 4 $1.19 1 9 4 $1.19 and in neither case can change for $1.00 be made. (b) Two or zero quarters would allow an amount ending in 0. Then more combinations of dimes or pennies could add to $1.00. 14. If the price of 15 sandwiches equals the price 20 = 4 of 20 salads, each sandwich will buy 15 3 ( ) salads. Thus 3 sandwiches = 3 43 = 4 salads. 15. Use a variable and a table 12 AM T 5 AM 9 AM 12 PM T – 15 2(T – 15) 2(T – 15) + 10 Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. Assessment 1-2A: Explorations with Patterns 7 2(T – 15) + 10 = 32 So, 2T – 30 + 10 = 32 2T – 20 = 32 2T = 52 T = 26 degrees. 16. One way to solve this problem is to write an equation using a variable. For example, let p equal the number of puzzles Seth bought. So the number of trucks Seth bought would be 5 โ€“ p. Since each puzzle cost $9 and each truck cost $5, we get 9 p ๏€ซ 5(5 ๏€ญ p ) ๏€ฝ 33 9 p ๏€ซ 25 ๏€ญ 5 p ๏€ฝ 33 4p ๏€ฝ 8 p๏€ฝ2 So Seth bought 2 puzzles. Since he bought 5 gifts all together, he also bought 3 trucks. Another way to solve it is to guess and check, making a table to keep track of results Puzzles Trucks Cost of puzzles Cost of Trucks Total cost 0 5 $0 $25 $25 1 4 $9 $20 $29 2 3 $18 $15 $33 3 2 $27 $10 $37 The table shows that by buying 2 puzzles and 3 trucks, Seth will spend $33. 17. The first line tells us that hamburgers equal $10. Using that information, we can use the second line to figure out 4 hot dogs cost $8, so each hot dog costs $2. Going to the third line, since two hot dogs cost $4, each drink must cost $1. So on the fourth line, one drink and one hamburger cost $11. The value of the question mark is $11. 18. This is difficult to visualize, so the strategy of examining a simpler case and looking for a pattern might be the best method to solve this problem. It would also help if you are able to make a model of the shapes and act out the situation. Imagine a 3 ยด 3 ยด 3 large cube. It would be made up of a total of 27 small cubes. Taking off one layer all around would involve taking off the top layer, the bottom layer, the front, the back, the left side, and the right side. Doing this one step at a time: taking off the top layer takes away 9 cubes. The same if you take off the bottom layer, so youโ€™ve removed 18 cubes so far. Taking off the front and the back would remove 3 more cubes each (the other 6 cubes on those faces were removed when the top and bottom were removed). Finally, taking off the left and right sides removes one more cube each. In total, 26 cubes are removed, leaving only 1 cube. Now, imagine a 4 ยด 4 ยด 4 cube. There would be a total of 64 small cubes making it. Removing the top and bottom layers takes a total of 32 cubes away; removing the front and the back would take away 16 more cubes; finally, removing the left and right sides takes away 8 more cubes, leaving only 8 cubes. So, when starting with a 3 ยด 3 ยด 3 large cube, we are left with 1 small cube (1 ยด 1 ยด 1 = 1); when starting with a 4 ยด 4 ยด 4 large cube, we are left with 8 small cubes (2 ยด 2 ยด 2 = 8). Therefore, the pattern seems to be, when given large cube of dimension n ยด n ยด n, to find the number of small cubes that make it after removing one layer of small cubes all around the larger cube, you would take (n – 2) ยด (n – 2) ยด (n – 2). So for a 10 ยด 10 ยด 10 large cube, the number of small cubes left would be 8 ยด 8 ยด 8 = 512 small cubes. Assessment 1-2A: Explorations with Patterns 1. (a) Each figure in the sequence adds one box each to the top and bottom rows. The next would be: (b) Each figure in the sequence adds one upright and one inverted triangle. The next would be: (c) Each figure in the sequence adds one box to the base and one row to the overall triangle. The next would be: Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 8 Chapter 1: An Introduction to Problem Solving 2. (a) Terms that continue a pattern are 17, 21, 25, , โ€ฆ . This is an arithmetic sequence because each successive term is obtained from the previous term by addition of 4. (b) Terms that continue a pattern are 220, 270, 320, โ€ฆ . This is arithmetic because each successive term is obtained from the previous term by addition of 50. (c) Terms that continue a pattern are 27, 81, 243, โ€ฆ . This is geometric because each successive term is obtained from the previous term by multiplying by 3. (d) Terms that continue a pattern are 109 ,1011 ,1013 , โ€ฆ .

This is arithmetic because each successive term is obtained from the previous term by addition of 230 . 3. In these problems, let an represent the nth term in a sequence, a1 represent the first term, d represent the common difference between terms in an arithmetic sequence, and r represent the common ratio between terms in a geometric sequence. In an arithmetic sequence, an = a1 + (n – 1)d ; in a geometric sequence (d) Geometric sequence: a1 = 10 and r = 102: (i ) a100 = 10 โ‹… (102 )(100-1) = 10 โ‹… (102 )99 = 10 โ‹… 10198 = 10199. (ii ) an = 10 โ‹… (102 )(n-1) = 10 โ‹… 10(2n-2) = 102n-1.

The number of matchstick squares required to build the Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. Assessment 1-2A: Explorations with Patterns 9 10th windmill is thus 5 + (10 – 1) โ‹… 4 = 5 + 9 โ‹… 4 = 41 squares. (b) The nth windmill would require 5 + (n – 1) โ‹… 4 = 5 + 4n – 4 = 4n + 1 squares. (c) There are 16 matchsticks in the original windmill. Each additional windmill adds 12 matchsticks. This is an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 16 and d = 12, so an = 16 + (n – 1) โ‹… 12 = 12n + 4 matchsticks. 7. (a) Each cube adds four squares to the preceding figure; or 6, 10, 14, โ€ฆ . This is an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 6 and d = 4. Thus a15 = 6 + (15 – 1) โ‹… 4 = 62 squares to be painted in the 10th figure. (b) This is an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 6 and d = 6. The nth term is thus: an = 6 + (n – 1) โ‹… 4 = 4n + 2. 8. Since the first year begins with 700 students, after the first year there would be 760, after the second there would be 820, โ€ฆ , and after the twelfth year the number of students would be the 13th term in the sequence. This then is an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 700 and d = 60, so the 13th term (current enrollment + twelve more years) is: 700 + (13 – 1) โ‹… 60 = 1420 students. 9. Using the general expression for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 24, 000 and a9 = 31, 680 yields: 31680 = 24000 + (9 – 1)d 31680 = 24000 + 8d ๏ƒž d = 960, the amount by which Juanโ€™s income increased each year.

The number that fits into the last triangle is 8. The numbers inside the triangle are found by multiplying the number at the top of the triangle by the number at the bottom left of the triangle; then subtracting from that the number at the bottom right of the triangle. So, 2 ยด 5 – 2 = 8. 11. (a) To build an up-down-up staircase with 3 steps up and 3 steps down, each current step will have a block placed on it; plus a block will be added to each end. In total, there will be five more blocks, for a total of 9 blocks used. To build an up-down-up staircase with 4 steps up and 4 steps down, each step from the previous iteration will have a block placed on it (5 blocks) plus a block at each end (2 blocks), adding seven total blocks, bringing the total to 9 + 7 = 16 blocks. The table below illustrates the pattern: Steps up/down Blocks added Total blocks 1 2 3 4 0 3 5 7 1 4 9 16 Therefore, to build an up-down-up staircase with 5 steps up and 5 steps down, 9 blocks need to be added to the previous 16 blocks to arrive at a total of 25 blocks. (b) Based on the table and answer above, the total blocks are always the square of the number of steps up and down. So, if the number of steps up and down are n, then the total number of blocks will be n2. 12. (a) Using the general expression for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 51, an = 251, and d = 1 yields: 251 = 51 + (n – 1) โ‹… 1 ๏ƒž 251 = 50 + n ๏ƒž n = 201. There are 201 terms in the sequence.

Answers may vary; examples are: 5 (a) If n = 5, then 5+ = 2 ยน 5 + 1 = 6. 5 (b) If n = 2, then (2 + 4)2 = 62 = 36 does not equal 22 + 42 = 20. 15. (a) There are 1, 5, 11, 19, 29 tiles in the five figures. Each figure adds 2n tiles to the preceding figure, thus a6 the 6th term has 29 + 12 = 41 tiles. (b) n 2 = 1, 4,9, 16, 25, โ€ฆ . Adding (n – 1) to n2 yields 1, 5, 11, 19, 29, โ€ฆ , which is the proper sequence. Thus the nth term has n2 + n – 1. (c) If n 2 + (n – 1) = 1259; Then n 2 + n – 1260 = 0. This implies (n – 35)(n + 36) = 0, so n = 35. There are 1259 tiles in the 35th figure. 16. The nth term of the arithmetic sequence is 200 + n (200). The sequence can also be generated by adding 200 to the previous term. The nth term of the geometric sequence is 2n. The sequence can also be generated by multiplying the previous term by 2.

(a) Start with one piece of paper. Cutting it into five pieces gives us 5. Taking each of the pieces and cutting it into five pieces again gives 5 โ‹… 5 = 25 pieces. Continuing this process gives a geometric sequence: 1, 5, 25, 125, โ€ฆ . After the 5th cut there are 55 = 3125 pieces of paper. (b) The number of pieces after the nth cut would be 5n. 18. (a) For an arithmetic sequence there is a common difference between the terms. Between 39 and 69 there are three differences so we can find the common difference by subtracting 39 from 69 and dividing the answer by three: 69 ๏€ญ 39 ๏€ฝ 30 and 30 ๏‚ธ 3 ๏€ฝ 10. The common difference is 10 and we can find the missing terms: 39 โ€“ 10 = 29 and 39 + 10 = 49 and 49 + 10 = 59. (b) For an arithmetic sequence there is a common difference between the terms.

(c) For a geometric sequence there is a common ration between the terms. Between 54 and 510 there are three common ratios used so we can find the common ratio by dividing 510 by 54 and then taking the cube root: ๏€จ1๏€ฉ 510 ๏‚ธ 54 ๏€ฝ 56 and (56 ) 3 ๏€ฝ 52.

In these problems, an represents the nth term in a sequence, a1 represents the first term, d represent the common difference between terms in an arithmetic sequence, and r represents the common ratio between terms in a geometric sequence. In an arithmetic sequence, an = a1 + (n – 1) d ; in a geometric sequence, an = a1r n-1. Thus: (a) Arithmetic sequence: a1 = 2 and d = 4. (i) a100 = 2 + (100 – 1) โ‹… 4 = 398.

(a) Looking at the second figure, there are 3 + 1 = 4 triangles. In the third figure, there are 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 triangles. The fourth figure would then have 7 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 16 triangles. An alternative to simply adding 7, 5, 3, and 1 together is to note that 7 + 1 = 8 and 5 + 3 = 8. There are 42 = 2 of these sums, and 2 โ‹… 8 = 16. Then the 100th figure would have 100 + 99 = 199 triangles in the base, 99 + 98 = 197 triangles in the second row, and so on until the 100th row where there would be 1 triangle. 199 + 1 = 200; 197 + 3 = 200; etc. and so the sum of each pair is 200 and there are 100 = 50 of 2 these pairs. 50 โ‹… 200 = 10, 000, or 10,000 triangles in the 100th figure.

The sequence can also be generated by adding 300 to the previous term. The nth term of the geometric sequence is 3n-1 . The sequence can also be generated by The sum of the first n Fibonacci numbers is Fn + 2 – 1. F12 = 144, so there are 143 bees in all 10 generations. 18. (a) For an arithmetic sequence there is a common difference between the terms. Between 49 and 64 there are three differences so we can find the common difference by subtracting 49 from 64 and dividing the answer by three: 64 ๏€ญ 49 ๏€ฝ 15and15 ๏‚ธ 3 ๏€ฝ 5. The common difference is 5 and we can find the missing terms: 49 โ€“ 5 = 44 and 49 + 5 = 54 and 54 + 5 = 59. (b) For a geometric sequence there is a common ratio between the terms. Between 1 and 625 there are four common ratios used so we can find the common ratio by dividing 625 by 1 and then taking the ๏€จ1๏€ฉ fourth root: 625 ๏‚ธ 1 ๏€ฝ 625and 625 4 ๏€ฝ 5.

Mathematical Connections 1-2: Review Problems (c) For a geometric sequence there is a common ratio between the terms. Between 310 and 319 there are three common ratios used so we can find the common ratio by dividing 319 by 310 and then taking the ๏€จ1๏€ฉ cube root: 319 ๏‚ธ 310 ๏€ฝ 39 and (39 ) 3 ๏€ฝ 33. The common ratio is 33 and we can find the missing terms: 310 ๏‚ธ 33 ๏€ฝ 37 ,310 ๏ƒ— 33 ๏€ฝ 313 ,313 ๏ƒ— 33 ๏€ฝ 316. (d) For an arithmetic sequence there is a common difference between the terms. Between a and 5a there are four differences so we can find the common difference by subtracting a from 5a and dividing the answer by four: 5a ๏€ญ a ๏€ฝ 4a and 4a ๏‚ธ 4 ๏€ฝ a. The common difference is a and we can find the missing terms: a + a = 2a, 2a + a = 3a, 3a + a = 4a. 19.

Order the teams from 1 to 10, and consider a simpler problem of counting how many games are played if each team plays each other once. The first team plays nine teams. The second team also plays nine teams, but one of these games has already been counted. The third team also plays 9 teams, but two of these games were counted in the previous two summands. Continuing in this manner, the total is 10 + 9 + 8 + โ€ฆ + 3 + 2 + 1 = 9(10) / 2 = 45 games. Double this amount to obtain 90 games must be played for each team to play each other twice. 16. 7 ways.

Each term is 3 more than the previous term. This suggests that it is an arithmetic sequence of the form 3n + ?. Since the first term is 5, 3(1) + ? = 5. The nth term would be 3n + 2. (b) Each term given is 3 times the previous term. This suggests that the sequence is geometric. nth term will be 3n. (c) The only number that changes in successive terms is the exponent. For the first term, the exponent is 2; for the second term, the exponent is 3; for the third term, the exponent is 4; and so on. So, for the nth term, the exponent will be n + 1. Therefore, the nth term will be 2n+1 โ€“ 1. 5. (a) 3(1) – 2 = 1; 3(2) – 2 = 4; 3(3) – 2 = 7; 3(4) – 2 = 10; and 3(5) – 2 = 13. (b) 12 + 1 = 2; 22 + 2 = 6; 32 + 3 = 12; 42 + 4 = 20; and 52 + 5 = 30.

A possible pattern is to increase each rectangle by one row of dots and one column of dots to obtain the next term in the sequence. Make a table. Number of the term Row of dots Column of dots Term (row ร— column) 1 1 2 2 2 2 3 6 3 3 4 12 4 4 5 20 5 5 6 30 6 6 7 42 7 7 8 56 100 101 10100 n n +1 n (n + 1) ๏ 100 ๏ n We also observe that the number of the term corresponds to the number of rows in the arrays and that the number of columns in the array is the number of the term plus one. Thus, the next three terms are 30, 42, and 56. The 100th term is 10,100 and the nth term is n (n + 1). 21. A possible pattern is that each successive figure is constructed by adjoining another pentagon to the previous figure (a) (b) Observe that the perimeter of the first figure is 5 and that when a new pentagon is adjoined 4 new sides are added and one side (where the new pentagon is adjoined) is lost. Make a table. Number of terms 1-unit sides (perimeter) 1 5 2 5 -1+ 4 = 8 3 8 – 1 + 4 = 11 4 11 – 1 + 4 = 14 (c) and (d) Looking at the terms in the sequence and noting that the difference of terms is three, we suspect that the sequence is arithmetic and conjecture that the nth term is 3n+2. However, we need to be sure. Looking at the 4th term (part a) we observe that the pentagons on the end Contribute 4 sides to the perimeter and the โ€œmiddleโ€ pentagons contribute 3 sides. Thus, in the nth figure there will be 2 โ€œendโ€ pentagons that contribute 4 1-unit sides and n – 2 โ€œmiddleโ€ pentagons that contribute 3(n – 2) 1 unit sides. The total will be 3(n – 2) + 2(4) = 3n + 2 units. Thus the 100th term is 3(100) + 2 = 302. 22. (a) The circled terms will constitute an arithmetic sequence because the common difference will be twice the difference in the original series. (b) The new sequence will be a geometric sequence because the ratio will be the square of the ratio of the original series. 23. When n = 1, then n2 โ€“ n = 12 โ€“ 1 = 0, so the first term, a1 = 0. When n = 2, then n2 โ€“ n = 22 โ€“ 2 or 2. Thus a1 + a2 = 2; hence a2 = 2. For n = 3, n2 โ€“ n = 32 โ€“ 3 = 6. Substituting for a1 and a2, we get a3 = 6 โ€“ 2 =4. For n = 4, 42 โ€“ 4 = 12. Substituting for a1, a2, and a3, we get 0 + 2 + 4 + a4 = 12. Hence a4 = 6. 24.

The first line tells us that since three cylinders =15, each cylinder must be worth 5. Using that information, we can use the second line to figure out that a circle must be worth 4. That information can be used on the third line to determine that the cup-like shape must be equal to 1. So, putting it all together in the fourth line, we have 4 + 5 + 1 = 10. 26. The pattern involves taking two squares that are diagonal, summing their numbers, and putting that sum in the square that is below one of the diagonal squares and to the left of the other diagonal square. For example, the top square is 4; the square diagonal to it (to the right) is 2; their sum is 6, which is the number that appears in the square below the 4 and to the left of the 2. You can also see it where 9 + 10 = 19, and 1 + 6 =7. So using this pattern, the question mark must be equal to 3. So the missing terms are 27. Since 1, 2, and 3 are already on the triangle, the numbers 4-9 will be used to fill in the six question marks. On the left side, 1+2 = 3, so the two question marks on that side must sum to 14. Similarly on the bottom, the two question marks must sum to 13, and on the right side, the two question marks must sum to 12. So on the right side with the available numbers, only two possibilities, 5+7, or 4+8, sum to 12. If the two numbers on the right side are 5 and 7, the bottom two numbers (which must sum to 13) are 4 and 9, and the two numbers on the left side must be 6 and 8. If the two numbers on the right side are 4 and 8, the two bottom numbers must be 6 and 7, leaving 5 and 9 to be the numbers on the right.

In order for a disjunction to be true, either p or q (or both) have to be true; the only way a disjunction can be false is if both p and q are false. So therefore, this statement is true. (b) Answers may vary. If a team has more than 11 players on the field, it is a penalty and the play will not count; so, an answer of False could be given. However, just because it is a penalty doesnโ€™t mean a team canโ€™t have 12 or more players on the field; so, you could say the answer is True. You could also say True if you consider the time between plays when players are substituting in for other players; oftentimes, there are more than 11 players on the field during substitutions. (c) True. (d) False. To see, sketch a drawing where three sides are the same length, but with the two angles where the sides intersect being different measures (in fact, make one a right angle, the other an obtuse angle).

(c) {0,1} ร{1, 2, 3}. The symbol ร refers to a subset. 3. (a) Yes. {1, 2,3, 4,5} ~ {m, n, o, p, q} because both sets have the same number of elements and thus exhibit a one-to-one correspondence. (b) Yes. {a, b, c, d , e, f ,โ€ฆ, m} ~ {1, 2,3,๏‹ ,13} because both sets have the same number of elements. (c) No. { x | x is a letter in the word / {1, 2,3, 4,๏‹ ,11}; there are mathematics} ~ only eight unduplicated letters in the word mathematics. 4. (a) The first element of the first set can be paired with any of the six in the second set, leaving five possible pairings for the second element, four for the third, three for the fourth, two for the fifth, and one for the sixth. Thus there are 6 โ‹… 5 โ‹… 4 โ‹… 3 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 1 = 720 one-to-one correspondences. (b) There are n โ‹… (n – 1) โ‹… (n – 2) โ‹… ๏‹ โ‹… 3 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 1 = n! possible one-to-one correspondences. The first element of the first set can be paired with any of the n elements of the second set; for each of those n ways to make the first pairing, there are n – 1 ways the second element of the first set can be paired with any element of the second set; which means there are n – 2 ways the third element of the first set can be paired with any element of the third set; and so on. The Fundamental Counting Principle states that the choices can be multiplied to find the total number of correspondences. 5. (a) If x must correspond to 5, then y may correspond to any of the four remaining elements of {1, 2,3, 4,5}, z may correspond to any of the three remaining, etc. Then 1 โ‹… 4 โ‹… 3 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 1 = 24 one-to-one correspondences. Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 26 Chapter 2: Introduction to Logic and Sets (b) There would be 1 โ‹… 1 โ‹… 3 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 1 = 6 one-toone correspondences. (c) The set {x, y, z} could correspond to the set {1,3,5} in 3 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 1 = 6 ways. The set {u,๏ต} could correspond with the set {2, 4} in 2 โ‹… 1 = 2 ways. There would then be 6 โ‹… 2 = 12 one-to-one correspondences. (b) Since A is a subset of A and A is the only subset of A that is not proper, A has 25 – 1 = 31 proper subsets. (c) Let B = {b,c,d}. Since B รŒ A, the subsets of B are all subsets of A that do not contain a and e. There are 23 = 8 of these subsets. If we join (union) a and e to each of these subsets there are still 8 subsets. 6. There are three pairs of equal sets: (i ) A = C . The order of the elements does not matter. (ii ) E = H. They are both the null set. Alternative. Start with {a,e}. For each element b, c, and d there are two options: include the element or do not include the element. So there are 2 โ‹… 2 โ‹… 2 = 8 ways to create subsets of A that include a and e. (iii ) I = L. Both represent the numbers 1,3,5, 7,โ€ฆ. 7. (a) Assume an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 201, an = 1100, and d = 1. Thus 1100 = 201 + (n – 1) โ‹… 1; solving, n = 900. The cardinal number of the set is therefore 900. (b) Assume an arithmetic sequence with a1 = 1, an = 101, and d = 2. Thus 101 = 1 + (n – 1) โ‹… 2; solving, n = 51. The cardinal number of the set is therefore 51. (c) Assume a geometric sequence with a1 = 1, an = 1024, and r = 2. Thus 1024 = 1 โ‹… 2n-1 ๏ƒž 210 = 2n-1 ๏ƒž n – 1 = 10 ๏ƒž n = 11. The cardinal number of the set is therefore 11. (d) If k = 1, 2,3,๏‹ ,100, the cardinal number of the set 3 {x | x = k , k = 1, 2,3,๏‹ ,100} = 100, since there are 100 elements in the set. 8. A represents all elements in U that are not in A, or the set of all college students with at least one grade that is not an A. 9. (a) A proper subset must have at least one less element than the set, so the maximum n( B ) = 7. (b) Since B รŒ C , and n( B) = 8 then C could have any number of elements in it, so long as it was greater than eight. 10. (a) If C ร D and D ร C , then the sets arc equal; so n(D) = 5. (b) Answers vary. For example, the sets are equal and/or the sets are equivalent. 11. (a) A has 5 elements, thus 25 = 32 subsets. 12. If there are n elements in a set, 2n subsets can be formed. This includes the set itself. So if there are 127 proper subsets, then there are 128 subsets. Since 27 = 128, the set has 7 elements. 13. In roster format, A = {3, 6,9,12,๏‹}, B = {6,12,18, 24,๏‹}, and C = {12, 24,36,๏‹}. Thus, B รŒ A, C รŒ A, and C รŒ B. Alternatively: 12n = 6(2n) = 3(4n). Since 2n and 4n are natural number C รŒ A, C รŒ B, and B รŒ A. 14. (a) ร . There are no elements in the empty set. (b) รŽ. 1024 = 210 and 10 รŽ N . (c) รŽ. 3(1001) – 1 = 3002 and 1001 รŽ N . (d) ร. For example, x = 3 is not an element because for 3 = 2n , n ร N . 15. (a) ร . 0 is not a set so cannot be a subset of the empty set, which has only one subset, ร†. (b) ร . 1024 is an element, not a subset. (c) ร . 3002 is an element, not a subset. (d) ร . x is an element, not a subset. 16. (a) Yes. Any set is a subset of itself, so if A = B then A ร B. (b) No. A could equal B; then A would be a subset but not a proper subset of B. Copyright ยฉ 2020 Pearson Education, Inc.
