Q. Anl lterns12345678910aN→1.The model represents an equation.What value of x makes the equation true?Enter the answer in the space provided.
Write Equation: First, let's write down the equation that the model represents. It looks like we have a bunch of x's and some numbers. So if we count the x's and the numbers, we can make the equation.
Count X's and Numbers: Counting the x's on one side and the numbers on the other side, we get something like x+x+x+…=some number. Let's count them properly now.
Calculate Total X's: Okay, so there are 10 x's on one side. That means we have 10x on one side of the equation.
Calculate Total Numbers: Now, let's count the numbers on the other side. We got 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, which adds up to 55. So the other side of the equation is 55.
Form Equation: So the equation we have is 10x=55. Now we just need to solve for x.
Divide by 10: To solve for x, we divide both sides by 10. So x=1055.
Final Solution: Doing the division, we get x=5.5. So x should be 5.5 to make the equation true.
