Hildy had 2.5 oz of liquid for a science experiment. the instructions said that the experiment needed 3 oz of liquid. she went to the cabinet and got an additional 7.5 oz of liquid. did hildy get a reasonable amount of liquid out of the cabinet?

a. yes, hildy got a reasonable amount of liquid because she needed a total of 7.5 oz (2.5 × 3 = 7.5).

b. no, hildy did not get a reasonable amount of liquid because she only needed 0.5 oz (3 – 2.5 = 0.5).

c. no, hildy did not get a reasonable amount of liquid because she only needed 5.5 oz (3 + 2.5 = 5.5).

the answer is b. 60. each interior angle in 120, so the exterior angle must be 60 in order to add up to 180

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
