As pointed out, you lose if the pile has 1, 6, 11 or 16 sticks. How many sticks are needed in the next two piles for you to lose

21 and 26 totaling 47sticks

Step-by-step explanation:

Th number of sticks form an arithmetic progression

1, 6, 11, 16...

The nth term of an arithmetic progression is expressed as;

Tn = a+(n-1)d

a is the first term = 1

d is the common difference

d = 6-1 = 11-6 = 5

n is the number of terms

The next two terms are the fifth and sixth term

T5 = 1+(5-1)5

T5 = 1+4(5)

T5 = 1+20

T5 = 21

T6 = 1+(6-1)5

T6 = 1+5(5)

T6 = 1+25

T6 = 26

Hence the number of sticks needed in the next two piles are 21 and 26 totaling 47sticks

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
