Well, technically all those EQUATIONS are WRONG (equal means "is")

3=3
4=4
.
.
.
10=10


Now, if you want to find a function that maps those numbers on the left to the ones on the right, it's:

f(N) = 2*N^2

So

f(10) = 2*100 = 200

What about?

3 (3x2) = 18
4 (4x2) = 32
5 (5x2) = 50
6 (6x2) = 72
7 (7x2) = 98
8 (8x2) = 128
9 (9x2) = 162
10 (10x2) = 200

Although the solution has not been given, I'm agreeing with pokey and say 36. I worked several different formulas and none hold true but this one. To find the formula you have to think abstractly. I'll post back in a couple hours giving the proof. Till then, enjoy!

F(N) = (2*sqrt(N)/11)^2 works for that second quiz

F(11*11) = (2*sqrt(121)/11)^2 = 4
F(22*22) = (2*sqrt(22*22)/11)^2 = 16
F(33*33) = (2*sqrt(33*33)/11)^2 = 36

6*12=72
7*14=98

The way they teach math these days....there is no wrong answer, all the want is an estimation.

No....they just keep lowering the standards. So, it's okay to have more wrong answers.

Anybody remember when a 92 was a letter grade "B"??

18+(6+6+2)
32+(7+7+4)
50+(8+8+6)
72+(9+9+8)
98+(10+10+10)
128+(11+11+12)
162+(12+12+14)
200

For the second one...
11x11=4
22x22=16
33x33= 16(squared) = 256/4= 64 x 3= 192

So to simplify say that 11 means 1 and 22 means 2 and 33 means 3, so if we go by 1, 2, and 3 we see the pattern is squaring the previous answer so 4=16 and 16=256 but we know that 3 is 1 and a half twos so you would divide by 4 and multiply by 3 to get 192?
