$a_1=3$
$a_2=-4a_1$
$a_3=-4a_2=(-4)^2a_1$
$\cdots$
$a_6=-4a_5=\cdots=(-4)^5a_1$

$\implies a_6=(-4)^5\cdot3=-3072$

If the base of a rectangle is 12 cm and the area is 250.8 cm2 what is the height of the rectangle

Sergio039 [100]

So to find the area of a rectangle, the formula is
B (base) x H (height)= A (area)
12 cm x H = 250.8 cm^2
H= 250.8 / 12
H= 20.8 cm

Answer:

(-∞, -6] U [-2, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, begin by factoring this quadratic equation into its factored form:

x² + 8x + 12 ≥ 0 becomes (x+6)(x+2) ≥ 0.

x = -6, and x = -2 are the zeros of this parabola. Therefore:

(-∞, -6] U [-2, ∞) are the parts of the graph above y = 0 because the graph

opens upward.

** Remember, when the '≥' sign is present, the

square brackets must be used.

Find the area of the figure?

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangle, you use the formula A=1/2bh. So in this case it's 3×4×1/2. 3×4 is 12, times 1/2 is 6 m. Now for the rectangle it's just 2×4 which is 8. 8+6 is 14. Hope this helps! If you are still confused please comment!
