ΔABC ~ ΔADE
AC/AE = AB/AD
AC/(AC+15) = 8/18
18AC = 8(AC+15)
18AC = 8AC + 120
18AC - 8AC = 120
10AC = 120
AC = 120/10
AC = 12

Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

First term: 5

Fourth term: 5 1/2

Tenth term: 6 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the first, fourth and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule:

A(n) = 5 + (n-1) (1/6)

First term:

A(1) = 5 + (1-1) (1/6)

A(1) = 5 + (0) (1/6)

A(1) = 5

Fourth term:

A(4) = 5 + (4-1) (1/6)

A(4) = 5 + (3) (1/6)

A(4) = 5 + 3/6 = 5 3/6 = 5 1/2 (simplifying)

Tenth term:

A(10) = 5 + (10-1) (1/6)

A(10) = 5 + (9) (1/6)

A (10) = 5 + 9/6 = 6 3/6 = 6 1/2 (simplifying)

Suppose sarah is trying to design a metal box (a rectangular prism), which will hold 450 cubic centimeters of liquid. the length
schepotkina [342]
<span>So, the volume of a container can also be thought of as the amount of liquid that the container is capable of holding. It follows that 450=(length)(width)(height). The constraints of the problem say that the length of the box must be twice as large as the width, so it follows that j(height)=(2w)(w)(height)-450. This then implies that j(height)=(2w^2)(height)-450. In simpler terms, the height is defined as 450/(2w^2), or j(w)=450/(2w^2).</span>
