Length=6, width=2, height=20. We can write a function to solve this problem. Suppose the length of the sculpture is x inches. Then the width is (x-4) inches, and the height (3x+2) inches. Their product is the volume of the clay: x*(x-4)*(3x+2)=240. Solve the equation, the only real answer is 6, so the length is 6 inches. Width is 6-4=2, and height is 3*6+2=20.

Graph the six terms of a finite series where a1 = −3 and r = 1.5.
s344n2d4d5 [400]
We are given the first term and the common ratio, this means they belong to a geometric series.

For the given series:

a_{1}=-3 \\ 
r=1.5

Each term of the geometric series is obtained by multiplying the previous term by common ratio.

So the next terms will be:

-4.5, -6.75, -10.125, -15.1875, -22.78125

The general formula for the G.P would be:

a_{n}=-3(1.5)^{n-1}

On plotting the series, the result will be like this:

Answer:

  80 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula refers to a generic triangle ABC in which side lengths 'a' and 'b' are known and angle C is between those sides.

In the given figure, we have known side lengths of 12 and 14, and the angle between them is 72°.

Putting these numbers into the formula, we find the area to be ...

  A = (1/2)(12)(14)sin(72°) ≈ 79.9 ≈ 80 . . . . square units

The area of the triangle is about 80 square units.
