Equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all its sides are equal.

Given:
side = 10 cm

Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4  a²

1st: a = 10 ; A = 43.3 cm²
2nd: a = 5 ; A = 10.83 cm²
3rd: a = 2.5 ; A = 2.71 cm²
4th: a = 1.25 ; A = 0.68 cm²
5th: a = 0.625 ; A = 0.17 cm²
6th: a = 0.3125; A = 0.042 cm²
7th: a = 0.15625; A = 0.011.cm²

Summation: a1/1 -r ; a1 = 43.30 ; r = 0.25

43.30 / 1 - 0.25 = 43.30/0.75 = 57.73 cm²

The sum of the areas of the triangles if the process is continued without end is 57.73 cm²

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 0.5 kg soccer ball that is falling at a velocity of 3m/s.
Oduvanchick [21]
The expression for the kinetic energy is mass times velocity squared over two For the first question that gives us 2,25 joules If the ball is at the given height then it has a further 60 Joules in potential energy. Answer is D

Computer keyboard failures are due to faulty electrical connects (8%) or mechanical defects (92%). Mechanical defects are relate
sdas [7]

Solution :

Faulty electrical connects = P(A) = 0.80

Mechanical defects = P(B) = 0.92

Mechanical defects are related to loose keys = P(C/B) = 0.27

Improper assembly = P(D/B) = 0.73

Defective wires  = P(E/A) = 0.35

Improper connections = P(F/A) = 0.13

Poorly welded wires = P(G/A) = 0.52

Now, the probability due to loose keys = 0.27 x 0.92 = 0.2484

Improperly connected = 0.13 x 0.80 = 0.1040

Poorly welded wires = 0.52 x 0.80 = 0.4160

So, the probability that a failure is due to improperly connected or poorly welded wires = 0.1040 + 0.4160

                       = 0.5200

The Perimeter of a rectangle is 36. If there's 5n + 3 and 1/4n + 2, what's the value of n?
seropon [69]
Perimeter: 36

5n + 3 = 36
5 · 6.6 + 3 = 36

N = 6.6
------------------------------------------
Perimeter: 36

1/4n + 2 = 36
1/4 · 136 + 2 = 36

N = 136

Hopefully i understood the question correctly :) Hope this helps
