Answer:
a(n) = -16b + (n - 1)(3b)
Step-by-step explanation:
First term is -6b.
Common difference is 3b; each new term is equal to the previous one, plus 3b.
Formula for this arithmetic sequence is
a(n) = -16b + (n - 1)(3b)

Answer:
   19
Step-by-step explanation:
After x days, the boy will have read 10x. If this is less than 192, we have ...
   10x < 192
   x < 192/10
   x < 19.2
If x is an integer, the largest possible value x could have is 19.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
151.9 if the side length of the pentagon/ base of each triangle is 6 m
Step-by-step explanation:
if the side length of the pentagon/ base of each triangle is 6 m then  it is a pretty simple question, we just need to add the surface area of the base pentagon and each triangle.
We have the area of the base, so we just need the triangles.  The area of a triangle is .5bh, where the base of a triangle here is one side of the pentagon and the height is that indicated red 6. so that means one triangle has an area of .5*6*6 or 18.  There are 5 triangles total so that means that with all the triangles there is an area of 90.  Adding that to 61.9 gets us 151.9.  let me know if you need any more help.
