To find the number of rows of trees in the parcel, we set up the equation (Number of rows) * (3x - 2) = 24x - 16. By solving this equation for the number of rows, we find that it equals (24x - 16) / (3x - 2).
The question is about determining the number of rows in a rectangular parcel of land with trees. It is given that each row has 3x-2 trees and the total is 24x-16 trees. We can set an equation based on this information: (Number of rows) x (Number of trees in each row) = Total number of trees. This gives us the following equation: (Number of rows) * (3x - 2) = 24x - 16. Solving for the number of rows, we divide each side of the equation by 3x - 2. Hence, the number of rows equals (24x - 16) / (3x - 2).

3. Move the point of the compass to the mark you made and make another mark that intersects the circle.
4. Continue in this way around the circle until you come back to the first mark.
(Hint: The last mark might not coincide precisely with the first mark, but your drawing should look something like the sketch.)
5. Select one of the marks on the circle and use a straightedge to draw line segments connecting that mark to all the marks that are not next to it.
6. Repeat the process for each mark on the circle.
With the design you created in the previous question. Select a pair of adjacent compass marks on the circle. Then follow these instructions and answer the question. 1. Make a crease by folding the paper so that the two marks coincide with each other. When you open the paper, the crease will show you the midpoint along the circle between the two marks. 2. Repeat the process to find the midpoint between each pair of marks on the circle. 3. Use a straightedge to draw line segments connecting each midpoint to the midpoint that is next to it. What type of figure did you create?
step 3: add 5
step 4: multiply by 50
step 5: if you've had your birthday this year ,add 1764,or,if you've not yet had your birthday this year ,add 1763
step 6: subtract the year of your birth
you should end up with a number which is a combination of the number you started with followed with your age. for example ,if you are 12 and you start with the number 27, the result should be 2712.
your task :
1. let n represent the number in step 1 and show what happens through step 6.
2. explain why the result is always the original number followed by your age. What would be the expression I would use?
