Ajay wraps a gift box in the shape of a triangular pyramid. The amount

of wrapping paper he uses is 173.2 square inches.

<h3>How to calculate the surface area of a triangular pyramid?</h3>

The formula for calculating the total surface area is expressed as:

Area = 4(area of triangle)

The area of the triangle

A = 0.5(8.66)(10)

A = 43.3 square inches

The total surface area will be

TSA = 4(43.3)

TSA = 173.2 square inches

Hence the amount of wrapping paper Ajay uses is 173.2 square inches

Data:
r (radius) = 3.5 in
h (height) = 8 in
Adopt: $\pi \approx3.14$
V (volume) = ?
Ink cost per cubic inch = $0.05/in³
Total cost: ?

<span>Calculate the volume of the paint bucket (its formed being cylindrical), we have:
</span> $V = \pi *r^2*h$
$V = 3.14 *3.5^2*8$
$V = 3.14*12.25*8$
$\boxed{V = 307.72\:in^3}$

<span>What was the total cost of the paint?

</span>price($)___measure(in³)
0.05 ---------- 1
y -------------- 307.72

It is made the rule of three: (<span>directly proportional)
</span>
$\frac{0.05}{y} = \frac{1}{307.72}$
multiply cross
$1*y = 0.05*307.72$
$y = 15.386\:\to\:\boxed{\boxed{y\approx\$15}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
<span>the total cost of the paint is $15</span>

Question 2 of 5

AlekseyPX

Given:

The different recursive formulae.

To find:

The explicit formulae for the given recursive formulae.

Solution:

The recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence is $f(n)=f(n-1)+d, f(1)=a,n\geq 2$ and the explicit formula is $f(n)=a+(n-1)d$ , where a is the first term and d is the common difference.

The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is $f(n)=rf(n-1), f(1)=a,n\geq 2$ and the explicit formula is $f(n)=ar^{n-1}$ , where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

The first recursive formula is:

$f(1)=5$

$f(n)=f(n-1)+5$ for $n\geq 2$ .

It is the recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence with first term 5 and common difference 5. So, the explicit formula for this recursive formula is:

$f(n)=5+(n-1)(5)$

$f(n)=5+5(n-1)$

Therefore, the correct option is A, i.e., $f(n)=5+5(n-1)$ .

The second recursive formula is:

$f(1)=5$

$f(n)=3f(n-1)$ for $n\geq 2$ .

It is the recursive formula of a geometric sequence with first term 5 and common ratio 3. So, the explicit formula for this recursive formula is:

$f(n)=5(3)^{n-1}$

Therefore, the correct option is F, i.e., $f(n)=5(3)^{n-1}$ .

The third recursive formula is:

$f(1)=5$

$f(n)=f(n-1)+3$ for $n\geq 2$ .

It is the recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence with first term 5 and common difference 3. So, the explicit formula for this recursive formula is:

$f(n)=5+(n-1)(3)$

$f(n)=5+3(n-1)$

Therefore, the correct option is D, i.e., $f(n)=5+3(n-1)$ .
