Fibonacci numbers |
2021-08-25 |
|
John pose la question :
Make a single column of numbers. Start with two numbers of your choice.
The third number is the sum of the previous two, the fourth number is the sum of
numbers two and three, and so on until
you have ten numbers in the column. Add up all ten numbers. Now, take the
seventh number and multiply it by eleven. This product will equal the sum of the
ten numbers. The same result will occur regardless of the first two numbers
chosen.
The question is why does the 7th number multiplied by 11 always equal the sum of
the ten numbers?

Arnold pose la question :
My daughter had me help her with some of her college math problems that require finding the pattern. The problem was the stair problem where you can climb either 1 step or 2 steps at a time. How many combinations are there to get to the 10th step. I found the data set that solves the answer to the question, but is there an equation that expresses the answer in terms of n?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 stair number
1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 number of possible combinations

Shameq pose la question :
Hi, I've been given a problem that I'm having some trouble with. I'd really appreciate any help. Here's the question (it's called the Pay Phone Problem) A pay phone will take only 10p, 20p, 50p, and £1 coins"(It's British). A woman has plenty of 10p and 20p coins. She has no other coins. She can put the coins into the pay phone in any order. INVESTIGATE the number of different ways, she could put the 10p and 20p coins into the pay phone.
