Suppose that 100 lottery tickets are given out in sequence to the first 100 guests to arrive at a party. of these 100 tickets, only 12 are winning tickets. the generalized pigeonhole principle guarantees that there must be a streak of at least l losing tickets in a row. find l.

After 12 tickets are subtracted from the total, the remaining 88 can be divided into thirteen intervals of 6 or 7 tickets each. There must be a streak of at least 7 losing tickets in a row.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

let pq = qr = rs = x, and xz = y and zu = z.

if the horizontal lines are parallel, then corresponding segments are in proportion:

substitute:

therefore 3 = y = z.

xu = y + z → xu = 3 + 3 = 6
