2. You need to use 2/3 of a can of pizza sauce to make a pizza. The can contains 1 lb 2 OZ of sauce. How many ounces do you need
for the pizza?
I really need this now I’ll give a bunch of points

Step-by-step explanation:

The can contains 1 pound + 2 oz

1 pound = 16 oz

1 can = 16oz + 2oz

1 can = 18 oz

2/3 can = 18 oz * 2/3

2/3 can = 18 oz/1 * 2/3

Multiply the numerator * numerator divide by (denominator * denominator)

2/3 can = 36 / 3

2/3 can = 12 oz.

You could do this by cancelation, but you may not know that yet.

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
