A triangle has a perimeter of 48" and the dimensions of each side are given as x+3 4x-1 2x-3

1 answer:

5 0

48" means 48 inches

anyway

the perimiter is the distance around or the sum of the sides

perimiter=48=x+3+4x-1+2x-3=7x-1

48=7x-1
add 1 to both sides
49=7x
divide both sides by 7
7=x

x+3=7+3=10

4x-1=4(7)-1=28-1=27

2x-3=2(7)-3=14-3=11

the sides are 10", 27" and 11"
x=7

The first term of a geometric sequence is 7, and the ratio (multiplier) is 3. what is the sum of the first 5 terms of the sequen

Anni [7]

Hello,

1)
$a_{1}=7$
$a_{2}=7*3$
$a_{3}=7*3^2$

$a_{n}=7*3^{n-1}$

$s=a_{1}+a_{2}+a_{3}+a_{4}+a_{5}=7*(1+3^1+3^2+3^3+3^4)$
$=7*\frac{3^{5}-1}{3-1}$
$=7*242/2=847$

2)
$b_{8}=6*8^{8-1}=12582912$
