Question

A tree branch has 5 buds. Each day 2 more buds sprout. How many buds are on the tree branch after 5 days

Answer 1

The answer is 15 buds because each day you will add 2

you start off with 5 then at 2

5+2= 7 that's the first day then add 2 again 7+2= 9 that's the second day

9+2= 11 that's the third day 11+2 = 13 that's the fourth day

13+2= 15 thats the fifth day

Answer 2

Answer: 15 buds on the tree branch.

Explanation:

After 5 days, the number of buds on the tree branch can be calculated by adding the initial number of buds to the number of buds that sprout each day.

The initial number of buds is 5.

Each day, 2 more buds sprout.

So, after 1 day, there will be 5 + 2 = 7 buds on the tree branch.

After 2 days, there will be 7 + 2 = 9 buds on the tree branch.

After 3 days, there will be 9 + 2 = 11 buds on the tree branch.

After 4 days, there will be 11 + 2 = 13 buds on the tree branch.

Finally, after 5 days, there will be 13 + 2 = 15 buds on the tree branch.

Therefore, after 5 days, there will be 15 buds on the tree branch.
