Alright, let's go through these questions together.
### Question 2.1: Complete the table
You are given a table with the number of days and the number of mini chocolate bars sold for the first two days:
[tex]\[
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline
\textbf{Number of days} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\
\hline
\textbf{Number of mini chocolate bars sold} & 60 & 120 & & \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\][/tex]
To complete this table, let's observe the pattern from the given numbers.
- On Day 1, 60 mini chocolate bars were sold.
- On Day 2, 120 mini chocolate bars were sold.
Notice that from Day 1 to Day 2, the number of mini chocolate bars sold has doubled (60 [tex]\(\times\)[/tex] 2 = 120). We can follow this pattern to fill in the remaining values.
For Day 3:
- The number of mini chocolate bars sold would be double the number sold on Day 2.
- [tex]\(120 \times 2 = 240\)[/tex]
For Day 4:
- The number of mini chocolate bars sold would be double the number sold on Day 3.
- [tex]\(240 \times 2 = 480\)[/tex]
Therefore, the completed table looks like this:
[tex]\[
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline
\textbf{Number of days} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\
\hline
\textbf{Number of mini chocolate bars sold} & 60 & 120 & 240 & 480 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\][/tex]
### Question 2.2: Describe the rule of the pattern
The pattern we observed in the table is as follows:
- Each day's number of mini chocolate bars sold is double the number of bars sold the previous day.
In other words, the number of mini chocolate bars sold each day follows a rule where it is multiplied by 2 from the previous day. This can be described as:
"The number of mini chocolate bars sold doubles each day."
Great job! You've now completed the table and described the rule for the pattern effectively.
