You could use perturbation method to calculate this sum. Let's start from:

On the other hand, we have:

So from (1) and (2) we have:

Now, let's try to calculate sum

, but this time we use perturbation method.

but:

So the answer is:

Sorry for my bad english, but i hope it won't be a big problem :)
In order to begin we must start off with the formula for the area of a triangle, which is a=1/2b(h) where a is area, b is base, and h is height.
In this scenario, we know that the area is 45cm^2 and the base is 2h+12 (since it is twice it’s height plus twelve). We can plug this into the area equation and then proceed to solve out accordingly.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h+12)(h)
90=(2h+12)(h)
90=2h^2 + 12h
0= 2h^2 + 12h - 90
Simplify by dividing the two out.
h^2 + 6h - 45 = 0.
Now plug into the quadratic formula (with a=1, b=6, and c=-45) as shown in the image below.
After plugging the equation in and solving, we come to the idea that h is roughly equal to 4.34. We can now plug this back into the triangle area formula to solve out for b.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h + 12)(h)
45=1/2(20.69)(4.34)
45=45.
In conclusion;
The height is ≈ 4.34
The base is ≈ 8.68
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the cost is $111
The answer is Letter C - 1/2,775
The probability of choosing one of them is 2 out of 75 while the probability of choosing the other one is 1 out of 74. 74 band members, not counting the other person (you or your bother).
Computation:
P = 2 / 75 * 1 / 74
= 0.0266... * 0.01351...
= 1 / 2,775
You can also multiply 75 with 74 to get a total of 5,550 then divide it by 2 students to be selected to get 2,775. Meaning one out of 2,775 possibilities.
