Let EB and CF be two heights. Then quadrilateral EBCF is rectangle, so BC=EF=5 m. It is given that bases are BC=5 m and AD=11 m. Triangles ABE and DCF are congruent, thus,

AE=FD=\dfrac{AD-EF}{2}=\dfrac{AD-BC}{2}=\dfrac{11-5}{2}=3.

Consider right triangle ABE, by the Pythagorean theorem

AB^2=EB^2+AE^2,\\ \\4^2=3^2+EB^2,\\ \\EB^2=16-9=7,\\ \\EB=\sqrt{7}\ m.

Answer: \sqrt{7}\ m.

Find a closed form for the generating function for each of these sequences. (assume a general form for the terms of the sequence
noname [10]
There really is no single "obvious" choice here...

Possibly the sequence is periodic, with seven copies of -1 followed by six copies of 0, or perhaps seven -1s and seven 0s. Or maybe seven -1s, followed by six 0s, then five 1s, and so on, but after a certain point it would seem we have to have negative copies of a number, which is meaningless.

Or maybe it's not periodic, and every seventh value in the sequence is incremented by 1? Who knows?

I'll go ahead and assume the latter case, that the sequence is not periodic, since that's technically somewhat easier to manage. We can assign the following rule to the n-th term in the sequence:

\{a_n\}=\{-1,\ldots,-1,0,\ldots,0,1,\ldots,1,2,\ldots,2,3,\ldots\}
\implies a_n=\left\lfloor\dfrac n7\right\rfloor-1

for n\ge0.

So the generating function for this sequence might be

G(a_n;x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge0}\left(\left\lfloor\frac n7\right\rfloor-1\right)x^n

As to what is meant by "closed form", I'm not sure. Would this answer be acceptable? Or do you need to find a possibly more tractable form for the coefficient not in terms of the floor function?
