T- TOTAL

In this test I will be finding out the equation of the t- total and the formula of different grid sizes like 10 by 10,11 by 11 and 12 by 12.The investigation has the aim to find the pattern between the t- total and the grid size.

I have drawn several t- shapes in the grid below and worked out the t- total for them I have also put the results in a table shown below

Join now!

                              T- number    t-total

                                     

The relationship between the t- totals is 5.Now the algebra

 Point Of View Tn= (n-19)+(n-18)+(n-17)+(n-9)+n

 Tn = 5n –63 this is for a 9 by 9 grid.

Does this agree with the table’s equation? T20 = 5 x 20 - 63

100 – 63 = 37 let me make sure that this does ...
