A rectangle sandbox has a width of 5 feet. Tbe sandbox is 5 times as long as it is wide. What is the perimeter of the sandbox?

1 answer:

6 0

The perimeter of the sandbox is 60 ft.
5x5=25
Two sides = 25, so 25+25 = 50.
Two other sides = 5, so 5+5=10
50+10 = 60, and that is the correct answer.

Evaluate S5 for 300 + 150 + 75 + … and select the correct answer below. 18.75 93.75 581.25 145.3125

Savatey [412]

we have that

$300 + 150 + 75 +...$

Let

$a1=300\\ a2=150\\ a3=75$

we know that

$\frac{a2}{a1} =\frac{150}{300} \\\\ \frac{a2}{a1}=0.5 \\ \\ a2=a1*0.50$

$\frac{a3}{a2} =\frac{75}{150} \\\\ \frac{a3}{a2}=0.5 \\ \\ a3=a2*0.50$

$a(n+1)=an*0.50$

Is a geometric sequence

Find the value of $a4$

$a(4)=a3*0.50$

$a(4)=75*0.50$

$a(4)=37.5$

Find the value of $a5$

$a(5)=a4*0.50$

$a(5)=37.5*0.50$

$a(5)=18.75$

Find $S5$

$S5=a1+a2+a3+a4+a5\\ S5=300+150+75+37.5+18.75\\ S5=581.25$

therefore

the answer is

$581.25$

Alternative Method

Applying the formula

$S_n=\frac{a_1 (1-r^n)}{1-r} \\\\a_1=300 \\ r=\frac{1}{2}\\\\ S_5=\frac{300(1-(\frac{1}{2})^5)}{1-\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{300(1-\frac{1}{32})}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{300 \times \frac{31}{32}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{75 \times \frac{31}{8}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{\frac{2325}{8}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{2325}{8} \times 2\\\\=\frac{2325}{4}\\\\=581 \frac{1}{4}\\\\=581.25$

therefore

the answer is

$581.25$

Which is an odd monomial function? A.y=2x^3 B.1/x C.5x^-9 D.3

Anna71 [15]

First let's review two concepts:
Monomy: Algebraic expression that consists of a single term or in which the terms that form it are related by the product operation.
Odd function: A function is odd if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = - f (x).
The function y = 2x ^ 3 complies with both definitions.
Answer:
an odd monomial function is:
A.y = 2x ^ 3
