question number 18
the question is asking how many five digit positive integers, divisible by 9, can be written using only the digits 3 and 6?
what i did: using 9x1,9x2, 9x3, 9x4, 9x5, 9x6, 9x7, 9x8, 9x9
9, 18 ,27, 36, 45, 54 , 63, 72, 81
what i notice was the 9=9, 1+8=9 all the way to 9x9 which is 8+1=9
then i use the five digit numbers like 36363/9 but it didn't work.
after few tries i use 33336 and it work!!!
then i tried 33363, 33633, 36333, 63333, 66663, 66636, 66366, 63666, 36666.
all of them work
so the answer is "d" 10

what does it take to be good in math
Well being good in math you need to be willing to learn math in your own times. Math is a hard subject and getting better in math will take some skills from the one who called “The Master”, Kathleen!!! But anyways, if you are not willing to do you work you will never get good in math.
Hardworking is a good start for being good at math and everything will good really well. Doing all your homework when the teacher asks you to. Finishing homework is a good way of getting your marks high.

question 13
in the diagram, there is 2 small circle in a big circle and what they are asking is what is the area of the shaded rigion when the radius of the larger circle is 6.
what i did was since you know what the radius of the large circle is 6, the area of a circle is "pie r square". so 6x6=36 and x pie is 36pie.
radius of the smaller circles are 3 beacuse 6 is there "d". so 3x3=9pie. and there is 2 circle so times to is 18pie.
use the big circle area to minus the 2 small circles. so 36pie minus 18pie is 18pie. so the answer is 18pie which is "d".

the question i love the most
question number 11:
there are twelve balloons, i <3 balloons!!!!!
but anyways, there are twelve balloon and they are asking is if i pop every other 3 balloon, how many balloon will be left.
i dont really have a picture of the circle of balloon but when u look at it is really cool. plus when u figure it out everything starts to make sense. so u pop every 3rd balloon and there are letter A to J
teh question is asking u what letter of balloon will be the last three standing. this is the funnest question there is because u dont really have to do math. all you have to do is count.

tower of hanoi
describe the straggy and formula for the puzzzle tower of hanoi
From the moves necessary to transfer one, two, and three disks, we can find a recursive pattern - a pattern that uses information from one step to find the next step - for moving n disks from post A to post C:
First, transfer n-1 disks from post A to post B. The number of moves will be the same as those needed to transfer n-1 disks from post A to post C. Call this number M moves. [As you can see above, with three disks it takes 3 moves to transfer two disks (n-1) from post A to post C.]
Next, transfer disk 1 to post C [1 move].
Finally, transfer the remaining n-1 disks from post B to post C. [Again, the number of moves will be the same as those needed to transfer n-1 disks from post A to post C, or M moves.]
