Answer:

Length = 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given the width and the perimeter of the rectangle and we are required to find out our length. We will use the formula of perimeter in order to find the length.

The formula for perimeter

P=2(l+b)

where

l is length

b is width = 6

P is perimeter = 42

substituting them in formula we get

42=2(l+6)

dividing both sides by 2 we get

21 = l + 6

subtracting 6 from both sides we get

15 = l

Hence length is 15 inches

J. Reexamine the sequence 20, 14, 8, 2, ... from the problem

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The n th of the given sequence is $t_{n} = 26-6 n$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u> :-

Given sequence is 20,14,8,2,.......this sequence in arithmetic progression but this sequence is decreasing sequence.

given first term is 20 and difference is $d = second term- first term = 14-20=-6$

now the nth term of given sequence is

by using formula $t_{n}=a+(n-1)d$

$t_{n}= 20+(n-1)(-6)$

$t_{n}= 20-6 n+6$

final answer:-

$t_{n} = 26-6 n$

<u>verification</u>:-

$t_{n} = 26-6 n$

put n=1 we get first term is 20

put n=2 we get second term is 14

put n=3 we get third term is 8

put n=4 we get fourth term is 2

so the n th term of sequence is

$t_{n} = 26-6 n$

The top piece from a model of city hall is shown below.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The area that she painted = 896 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given figure is a pyramid with square base.

Here we need to find the surface area of the figure that need to be painted.

Surface area of a square pyramid = (S×S) + 2×S×L square.units

Where, S = side of the base L = slant height of the pyramid.

Now we have to plug in the given values.

Here S = 14, L =25

Plug in these values into the formula

= (14*14) + 2*14*25

= 196 + 700

= 896 mm^2

The area that she painted = 896 mm^2

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
