A) w * L = 112
B) 2w + 2L = 44
A) w = 112 / L then substituting this into B)
B) 2 * (112/L) + 2L = 44
B) 224 / L + 2L = 44
B) 224 + 2L^2 = 44L
B) 2L^2 -44L +224 = 0
L = 14
L = 8

Double Check
Width = 14 Length = 8
2*14= 28 2*8 = 16
28 + 16 = 44

14*8= 112
Correct!!!

What is the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence shown? \displaystyle \frac{1}{3} 3 1 , \displaystyle \frac{2}

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_1$ = First term = $\dfrac{1}{3}$

$d$ = Common difference = $\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}$

$n$ = Number of terms = 20

Sum of arithmetic progression is given by

$S=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a_1+(n-1)d]\\\Rightarrow S=\dfrac{20}{2}\times (2\times \dfrac{1}{3}+(20-1)\dfrac{1}{3})\\\Rightarrow S=70$

The sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence is 70.
