Question

Write a problem you can use to make a table strategy to solve then solve the problem

Answer 1

6 (3×2)-5 here you go

Answer 2

A Cadillac travels at 70 mph. A Buick travels at 60 mph. How long does it take to a Cadillac to catch up the Buick that started travelling one hour earlier?

Explanation:

A Table strategy needs an understanding of the problem. In addition to this strategy provides a clear vision of the problem.

Let's write it in a row, for the Cadillac. The second one for the Buick.

Plugging in values, here it is a Table like

`\left\{\begin{matrix}Hour/Distance &1&2&3&4&5&6 \\ Cadillac&0&70&140&210&280&350 \\ Buick&60&120&180&240&300&360 \end{matrix}\right.`

Since the smallest distance between them is given in 6 hours, (10 miles). This is clearly the answer.

Each movement can be described as a function the Cadillac

y=70x

And the Buick: y=60x

And plugging values for x, you can test it alternatively than using table strategy.
