Answer:
A = 216 cm^2
P = 80 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
l = 12
w = 18
As the object is rectangular, the area is height * width and the perimeter is
2(height + width) as there are two of each side.
12 * 18 = 216 U^2 U = unit of measurement, I would presume for a poster you use cm so its 216 cm^2
12 + 18 = 40
40 * 2 = 80 cm
Although the number of new wildflowers is decreasing, the total number of flowers is increasing every year (assuming flowers aren't dying or otherwise being removed). Every year, 25% of the number of new flowers from the previous year are added.
The sigma notation would be:
∑ (from n=1 to ∞) 4800 * (1/4)ⁿ , where n is the year.
Remember that this notation should give us the sum of all new flowers from year 1 to infinite, and the values of new flowers for each year should match those given in the table for years 1, 2, and 3
This means the total number of flowers equals:
Year 1: 4800 * 1/4 = 1200 ]
+
Year 2: 4800 * (1/4)² = 300
+
Year 3: 4800 * (1/4)³ = 75
+
Year 4: 4800 * (1/4)⁴ = 18.75 = ~19 (we can't have a part of a flower)
+
Year 5: 4800 * (1/4)⁵ = 4.68 = ~ 5
+
Year 6: 4800 * (1/4)⁶ = 1.17 = ~1
And so on. As you can see, it in the years that follow the number of flowers added approaches zero. Thus, we can approximate the infinite sum of new flowers using just Years 1-6:
1200 + 300 + 75 + 19 + 5 + 1 = 1,600
Answer:
5x^2 +10x
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is the product of the height and width. For this exercise, it is convenient to compute the rectangle areas individually, then write their sum:
blue rectangle area = (5x)(x) = 5x^2
red rectangle area = (5x)(2) = 10x
Total area = 5x^2 +10x.
_____
If you start by writing an expression for the total area, expanding it requires you deal with the unlike terms separately anyway:
5x(x +2) = 5x(x) +5x(2) = 5x^2 +10x
