Say the width is W and the length is L

L=3W (and of course W=W)

Now you use the perimeter formula P=2L+2W

80=2(3W) + 2W)

80=6W+2W

80=8W Divide both sides by 8

W=10

Now that you know the width, substitute it back into L=3W to find the length

L=3(10)

L=30

The dimensions are length: 30 cm and width: 10 cm

Answer:

$24(f(n))$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(n+3) = 3^{n+3}\\f(n+1) = 3^{n+1}$

$f(n+3) - f(n+1) = 3^{n+3} - 3^{n+1}$

$= 27(3^n) - 3(3^n)$

$= 24(3^n)$

$= 24(f(n))$

What is the 8th term of this geometric sequence 6,48,384,3072

ELEN [110]

Common ratio can be found by dividing the 2nd term by the first
r = 48/6
r = 8

an = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 8
a1 = first number = 6
r = common ratio = 8
now we sub
a(8) = 6 * 8^(8-1)
a(8) = 6 * 8^7
a(8) = 6 * 2097152
a(8) = 12582912 <==

Tamara finds the sum of two number cubes rolled at the same time. The chart below shows all possible sums from the 36 possible c

Georgia [21]

Answer:

18 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space ; roll of 2 number cubes = 6^2 = 36

Sum of 4 in 2 cube rolls = 3

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(sum of 4) = 3 / 36 = 1 / 12

If number cube is rolled 216 times :

Probability on 1 roll * Number of rolls

(1 / 12) * 216

0.0833333 * 216

= 18
