The greatest common factor is 8. So your answer would be: 8(5j - 2) because 8 x 5j= 40j and 8 x 2= 16
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
First let's establish that the problem requires the border to be as long as the total perimeter of the rectangular bulletin board.
Therefore:
Total length of border = Perimeter of rectangular bulletin board
As a rectangle has a total of four sides with two equivalent longer sides and two equivalent shorter sides, we must multiply the value of each of the two sides by two.
Total length of border = 2 ( 2 ) + 2 ( 4 )
Total length of border = 4 + 8
Total length of border = 12 feet
12 > 10
ANSWER:
Therefore, 10 feet of border isn't enough.

Answer:
<u>The sequence is</u>
- 1, 1 + 2, 1 + 2 + 3, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4, ...
Each term is the sum of the consecutive numbers from 1 to that number.
<u>The nth term is the sum of the first n numbers:</u>
- aₙ = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n
- aₙ = 1/2n(1 + n) (formula for sum of the n terms of arithmetic progression with the first term of 1 and common difference of 1)
- aₙ = n(n + 1)/2
1) The number of circles in the nth pile is n(n + 1)/2
2) When n tends to infinity the number of circles tends to infinity
