I need help with math

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

\[5\times3n = \]

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

@satellite73

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

@SolomonZelman @TheSmartOne

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is \(5\times 3\)?

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so \(5\times 3n=15n\)

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

and stick the n back to it :P

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

But my choices are

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can't wait to see this...

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

Can't wait to see what @satellite73

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

the answer choices

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

while you're at it, can you take a screenshot of your question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

something missing here for sure

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

maybe they want the first 5 values of when n=1 and then n=2 so on until n=5 maybe?

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

There.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

are there instructions that go with the question?

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

Nope just that.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Ok, just plug in n=1 what do you get? plug in n=2 , what do you get? n=3, what do you get? and finally, n=4 what do you get?

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

What?!

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

and btw, your question is \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^n\)

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

so plug in n=1, what is the value of \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^1\)

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

hold on

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

and what is: \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^2=?\) \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^3=?\) \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^4=?\)

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):

15, 45, 135, 405?

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

and your answer will be in the form of: \(\sf\Large 5 \times 3^1, 5 \times 3^2, 5 \times 3^3, 5 \times 3^4\)

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

correct :)

OpenStudy (i_love_my_nieces):
