Let c = the number of colors and d = the number… Find a formula for d in terms of c. (fullquestioninside)?
The Huichol Indians of Mexico often stretch strands of yarn onto bamboo sticks to form squares having patterns like those shown in question 14 on textbook page 193. Each new set of dots represents the vertices of a different colored square.
a.How many dots are needed for a pattern with 10 colors? 41
b.Let c = the number of colors and d = the number of dots. Find a formula for d in terms of c. Explain how you got this formula.
I’ve answered part a to this question, but I’m having trouble with part b. Help please?
Thank you. Much appreciated. ;p
A picture would help.
