Can anyone help me? It says,"Shelly sat in front of mariah. Diane sat in back of mariah. Natalie sat on either the left or right corner. Sarah sat between rows 2 and 6. Lily sat two feet fron Mariah and four feet from Bethany. But the teacher told Mariah to move 4 feet away from Lily and Bethany, changing half the data. Then comes a new kid who sits near the aquarium. Here's a hint: There is 20 rows of desks with n tables. n=6
Make a chart start filling it in...
To solve this problem and create a chart, let's go step by step and fill in the information given:
1. We have 20 rows of desks with n tables, where n = 6.
- This means we have a total of 20 rows and each row has 6 tables.
2. Shelly sat in front of Mariah.
- We can mark this in the chart by filling in "Shelly" in the space directly in front of Mariah's table.
3. Diane sat in back of Mariah.
- We can mark this in the chart by filling in "Diane" in the space directly behind Mariah's table.
4. Natalie sat on either the left or right corner.
- Since Natalie can sit in either the left or right corner, we can mark this as "Natalie" in one of the corners in our chart. Let's choose the top left corner for the initial placement.
5. Sarah sat between rows 2 and 6.
- Since Sarah sits between rows 2 and 6, we can fill in "Sarah" in the space between the second and sixth rows.
6. Lily sat two feet from Mariah and four feet from Bethany.
- For this information, we can't fill in the exact spots yet, but we can keep it in mind for later. Let's leave it empty for now.
7. The teacher told Mariah to move 4 feet away from Lily and Bethany, changing half the data.
- This means Mariah needs to move, and it will affect half of the data. We will need to adjust the positions based on this requirement later.
8. A new kid sits near the aquarium.
- Since we haven't filled in the exact spots yet, we can leave a space in our chart for the new kid near the aquarium.
Using these steps, you can start filling in the chart based on the given information.
