Width: x
Length: 2x
Area=x(2x)=2x^2
2x^2=200
x^2=100
x=10 or -10(reject as x>0) [width cannot be less than 0, doesnt make sense]
Perimeter
=x+x+2x+2x
=6x
=6(10)
=60 yd

If there were 45 cars In a line that stretched 454 feet, what is the average car length?

jolli1 [7]

45 cars=454

Divide 45 on both sides to get the average length of a single car

For every integer k from 1 to 10, inclusive the "k"th term of a certain sequence is given by (−1)(k+1)∗(12k). If T is the sum of

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Option D. is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question expression that represents the kth term of a certain sequence is not written properly.

The expression is $(-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})$ .

We have to find the sum of first 10 terms of the infinite sequence represented by the expression given as $(-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})$ .

where k is from 1 to 10.

By the given expression sequence will be $\frac{1}{2},\frac{(-1)}{4},\frac{1}{8}.......$

In this sequence first term "a" = $\frac{1}{2}$

and common ratio in each successive term to the previous term is 'r' = $\frac{\frac{(-1)}{4}}{\frac{1}{2} }$

r = $-\frac{1}{2}$

Since the sequence is infinite and the formula to calculate the sum is represented by

$S=\frac{a}{1-r}$ [Here r is less than 1]

$S=\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{1+\frac{1}{2}}$

$S=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2} }$

S = $\frac{1}{3}$

Now we are sure that the sum of infinite terms is $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Therefore, sum of 10 terms will not exceed $\frac{1}{3}$

Now sum of first two terms = $\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}$

Now we are sure that sum of first 10 terms lie between $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$

Since $\frac{1}{2}>\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, Sum of first 10 terms will lie between $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Option D will be the answer.

Tracy is filling the box with unit cubes that are 1 inch on each side. She will fill the box with cubes without any gaps or over

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$Volume = 48in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for box

Required

The volume of the box

The number of boxes in each direction represents the length of that dimension.

So, from the attachment

$Width = 4in$

$Length = 3in$

$Height = 4in$

The volume is:

$Volume = Length * Width * Height$

$Volume = 4in * 3in * 4in$

$Volume = 48in^3$
