We have been given the sequence 2,3,5,9,17.
We can write the terms of this sequence as

From the above term we can see that for the first term we take exponent 0 on 2 and then add 1 .
For second term we take exponent 1 on 2 and then add 1 .
For third term we take exponent 2 on 2 and then add 1 .
Using this fact for the next term of the sequence i.e. 6th term, we can take exponent 5 on 2 and then add 1 .
Therefore, next term of the sequence is given by

Therefore, the next term is 33.
Using the above facts, the pattern is given by

I'm just gonna assume that 6/3 and 1/2 are fractions.
First you have to find common denominators for the fractions to be added.
The first common denominator divisible by both the denominators is 6.
So 2x3=6 and 1x3=3
and 3x2+6 and 6x2+12
so that would be 12/6 + 3/6
Then you would proceed to add both of the numerators together which are 12 and 3.
To get a total of 15/6. You can also simplify that into a mixed number 2 1/2.
The correct answer is 2.8
Answer:
6.2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythagorean theorem to find b:
b = √(2.8² - 2.7²) = √0.55 = 0.7 (nearest tenth)
Perimeter of triangle = sum of all its sides = 2.8 + 2.7 + 0.7
Perimeter = 6.2 meters
