let the width of the rectangle be x

area of rectangle is l*b

x * (x + 6) = 40^2

x^2 + 6x = 40^2

x^2 + 6x = 1600

x + 6x =√1600

x + 6x = 40

7x = 40

x = 5.7

Samantha drew Triangle JKL with the coordinates (2,3), (4, 3) and (5,2). She reflected this image over the x-axis to create an i

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

J'(2,-3), K'(4, -3) and L'(5,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has vertices at J(2,3), K(4, 3) and L(5,2).

The transformation rule for a reflection in the x-axis is:

$(x,y)\to (x,-y)$

We substitute the points to obtain the coordinates of the image triangle J'K'L'

$J(2,3)\to J'(2,-3)$

$K(4,3)\to K'(4,-3)$

$L(5,2)\to L'(5,-2)$

In other words, we negate the y-coordinates of triangle JKL to obtain the coordinates of J'K'L'

In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5, the value of the previous term is represented by

den301095 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5

$a_n = a_{n-1}+5$

Suppose if a_5 is the nth term then previous term is a_4

To get the previous term we need to subtract 1 from the n

So a_n is the nth term

$a_{n-1}$ is the previous term

Here 5 represents the common difference between two terms

So value of previous term is represented by

$a_{n-1}$

Answer : $a_{n-1}$
