Answer:

<h2>B. 468</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

a_1=156,\ r=\dfrac{2}{3}

If |r| < 1, then the formula of a sum of an infinite geometric sequence is:

S=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}

Substitute:

S=\dfrac{156}{1-\frac{2}{3}}=\dfrac{156}{\frac{1}{3}}=156\cdot\dfrac{3}{1}=468

M is directly proportional to r2 <br> When r=2, m=14<br> Work out the value of m when r=12
Genrish500 [490]

we have M is durectly porpotional to r^2

so M=(k)r^2

and when r=2, m=14

so 14=(k)(2)^2

k=14/4 =7/2

so when r=12

m= (7/2)(12)^2 =(7/2)(144) = 504

The length of each side of a square is 6 feet more than the length of a side of a regular Octagon. The perimeter of the square i
goldfiish [28.3K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • square: 12 ft sides
  • octagon: 6 ft sides

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be worked in your head.

If the perimeters of the square and regular octagon are the same, the side length of the 4-sided square must be the same as the length of 2 sides of the 8-sided octagon. Since the side of the square is 6 ft more than the side of the octagon, each side of the octagon must be 6 ft, and each side of the square must be 12 ft.

__

We can let s represent the side length of the octagon. Then we have ...

  8s = perimeter of octagon

  4(s +6) = perimeter of square

These are equal, so ...

  4(s +6) = 8s

  s +6 = 2s . . . . . . divide by 4

  6 = s . . . . . . . . . . subtract s

The octagon has 6-ft sides; the square has 12-ft sides.
