Introduction

MATHS COURSEWORKT-TOTALS

T-TOTALCOURSEWORK

The number at the bottom of the ‘T’ is the t-number & the total of all of these numbers in the ‘T’ added together is called t-total.

In the example above the t-number is 20 & the t-total is 37.

PART 1

Investigate the relationship between the T-total & the T-Number.

 T-Number 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 T-Total 37 42 47 52 57 62 67

As t-number goes up by 1 the t-total goes up by 5

ROUGHWORK

20 x 2 – 3 = 37

21 x 2 – 3 = 39

20 x 3 – 23 = 37

21 x 3 – 23 = 40

20 x 4 – 43 = 37

20 x 4 – 43 = 41

20 x 5 – 63 = 37

21 x 5 – 63 = 42

22 x 5 – 63 = 47

23 x 5 – 63 = 52

24 x 5 – 63 = 57

25 x 5 – 63 = 62

26 x 5 – 63 = 67

37 + 38 + 39 + 47 + 56 = 217

58 + 59 + 60 + 68 + 77 = 322

56 x 5 – 63 = 217

77 x 5 – 63 = 322

SO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE T-NUMBER & THE T-TOTAL IS

T = 5N – 63

To prove formula algebraically, I am going to substitute x for my T-Number

22 x 5 – 63 = 47

22 x 5 – 70 = 40

23 x 5 – 70 = 45

25 x 5 – 70 = 55

26 x 5 – 70 = 60

27 x 5 – 70 = 65

28 x 5 – 70 = 70

29 x 5 – 70 = 75

53 + 54 + 55 + 64 + 74 = 300

65 + 66 + 67 + 76 + 86 = 360

74 x 5 – 70 = 300

86 x 5 – 70 = 360

Conclusion

There is also a connection between the number that you take away at the end. If you look carefully then you notice that all of those numbers are the multiples of seven. The number that you take away is grid size times 7.

For example; 9 x 7 = 63, 8 x 7 = 56 & 10 x 7 =70.

So from this you can work out the relationship between the T number, T total and the grid size.

Which is:

5n – (grid size x 7)

Also, the last number (at the bottom of each column of the Tail Boxes row in Fig 4.2) seems to be the Middle Number (15), plus 10, 20, 30 etc. which are all multiples of 10. In fact, the last number seems to be the Middle Number plus the Tail Length x 10.

generalizations bar; When a T-Shape is rotated by 90, 180 or 270 degrees, its T-Total is larger. If we try the same rotations on a different grid width and plot the results in a table, patterns might become easier to see.

We then times the 54 by 5 because it rises 5 ever time the t- number goes up. Then we + the t-total from the original t-shape and I come out with the t-total for the green t-shape. This is another way to work out the t-total.
