Every day Ms. Distelrath likes her Michigan Wolverines more and more! She has decided to put up a huge poster showing how her love increases each day. Row one represents day one, row two represents day two, and so on. Continue the pattern to determine the following:
a) How many hearts are there in row 10?
b) How many hearts are there in row 200?
c) How many hearts are there in row x?
First, work out the problem on your own. Then answer the following:
a) How did you determine how many hearts are in row 10? How many hearts should there be in row 10?
b) How did you determine how many hearts are in row 200? How many hearts should there be in row 200?
c) How did you determine how many hearts are in row x? How many hearts should there be in row x?
(If you could not determine how many hearts are in each row, describe at least three methods you tried to use.)
d) Did you check your answers to verify that you are correct? If so, how did you verify? If not, check them now and describe what you did.
e) Which row (row 10, row 500, row x) was the most challenging to figure out? Why?
