Height of the pentagon = 9 ft

Edge of base = 3 ft

area of pentagon = \frac{s^{2}n}{4 tan\left ( \frac{180}{n} \right )}

s is the length of any side = 3

n is the number of sides = 5

tan is the tangent function calculated in degrees

\\ \\\\area of pentagon = \frac{3^{2}(5)}{4 tan\left ( \frac{180}{5} \right )}\\\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{9(5)}{4 tan\left ( 36 \right )}\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{45}{4  ( 0.7265 )}\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{45}{2.906}\\\\area of pentagon = 15.4852

Volume of the pentagon = area of base (height )

Volume of the pentagon = 15.4852 (9)

Volume of the pentagon = 139.366

Volume of the pentagon = 139.37 cu.ft

What value, written as a decimal, should lena use as the common ratio? 1.0 1.5 2.5 2.0
mariarad [96]

The Lena has no common ratio for the sequence 1.0 1.5 2.5 2.0

According to the question,

1.0  1.5  2.5  2.0

a = 1.0

r = 1.5/1 = 1.5

r = 2.5/1.5 = 1.6667

r = 2/2.5 = 0.8

common ratio is different, so given sequence is not geometric sequence.

Hence,  the Lena has no common ratio for the sequence 1.0 1.5 2.5 2.0.

Howdo i find a rate of two numbers?
harina [27]
I don't know if you can find a rate with 2 numbers. You can find a rate with 2 sets of numbers. If you only have 2 numbers you cannot do much.

however if the problem says something like x changed from 45 to 65 over some x values that are not given you can find the rate. this is because you are actually given 2 sets of numbers. It it doesn't have to be x and y. It could say it another way. let's say it says you get on the freeway at 45 mph and when you see yout exit sign you are traveling 65 mph. What is your rate of change. this can actually be written in (x,y) form. in both of these examples you can say (x1, 45) and (x2, 65).

well the rate of change would just be the difference in y values per the difference in x values. If you think about it, this is just the slope of the line it creates. (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).
or:
(64 - 45) / (x2 - x1).
20 / (x2 - x1).

this can be worded as we had a rate of change of 20 per (x2 - x1) time period.

or you could say out rate of change was just 20 if of the time period is already understood.

i hope this helps. I am not sure if it was what you were asking

A rain gutter is made from sheets of aluminum that are 22 inches wide by turning up the edges to form right angles. Determine th
Varvara68 [4.7K]
So hmm notice the picture below

thus, the perimeter of the gutter is just w + w + l, or 2w +l

thus \bf 22=2w+l\implies 22-2w=l
\\\\\\
\textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\
A=lw\qquad 22-2w=l\implies A(w)=(22-2w)w
\\\\\\
A(w)=22w-2w^2

take the derivative of A(w), zero it out, check any critical points in the interval of (0, 22), for a maxima

recall, the aluminum sheet is just 22inches long, thus, whatever the "depth" or "w" is, has to be more than 0, and less than 22
