Answer:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is geometric (it multiplies the previous number each time). The nth term sequence would be x^n + yn

Because the sequence multiplies by 3 each time, The base number in that equation would be 3^n +yn.

So 3^n of the equation would be:
3, 9, 27.

Compare the 2 equations:
4, 12, 36

3, 9 ,27

The difference between the 2 equations is: 1, 3, 9 which itself is a geometric sequence so the nth term of this new equation is: 3^{n-1}.

Combine these 2 equations together and you get:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}.

I need help with this question i dont understand it
RUDIKE [14]
The perimeter, by definition, is the outside measure of that figure. MN and LM are the same length and LK and NK are the same length....we just need to find the lengths! Use the distance formula to find the distance between the 2 points:
\sqrt{( x_{2} - x_{1} ) ^{2} +( y_{2}- y_{1} ) ^{2}  }
For the segment MN, use the coordinates of M as your x1, y1, and use the coordinates of N for x2, y2:
\sqrt{(3-2) ^{2}+(4-3) ^{2}  }
which simplifies to
\sqrt{(1 )^{2}+(1) ^{2}  } which is \sqrt{2}
So that is the length of both MN and LM.  So far our perimeter is \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2}=2 \sqrt{2}
Now let's use the same formula to find out the length of one of the longer segments:
\sqrt{(5-3) ^{2} +(3-2) ^{2} }
which simplifies down to
\sqrt{(2) ^{2} +(1) ^{2} }
which is of course \sqrt{5}
Since we have 2 of those lengths, \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{5}=2 \sqrt{5}
So our perimeter is, in the end, 2 \sqrt{2}+2 \sqrt{5}
That's the third choice down
