Answer: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the kite is shown in the attached photo.

The perimeter of the kite is the distance around the kite.

The kite has 2 pairs of equal sides.

This means that

Side ML = side MN and side NO =

side LO

If Side MN = 8x – 3 and side NO = 2x + 1, then The perimeter of the kite is ML + MN + NO + LO

The perimeter of kite LMNO is given as 36 feet.

Therefore

ML + MN + NO + LO = 36

8x – 3 + 2x + 1 +8x – 3 + 2x + 1 = 36

8x + 8x + 2x+ 2x -3 +1 - 3 + 1

20x -4 = 36

20x = 40

x = 40/20 = 2

In an arithmetic sequence, = 5 and = 11.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

1134.62 (THE SUM OF 20 TERMS)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we write out our given information:

a8=2a2

a11=18

an is an arithmetic sequence.

Where here an means the nth term of our sequence.

What does an arithmetic sequence mean? It means to get to the next term in your sequence you add a constant (c) each time:

an+1=an+c

Equivalently:

an+1−an(n+1)−n=c

So an is of slope c (c2 is another constant):

an=cn+c2

Where here c2=a0 (Substitute in n=0 and see why that has to be the case if we let a0 exist)

Now we use the other given information to try to come up with a solution.

Let n=2:

a2=2c+c2

Let n=8, using the above equation we have:

a8=8c+c2=2a2=4c+2c2

Let n=11

a11=18

a11=11c+c2

But a11−a8=(11c+c2)−(8c+c2)=3c

Hence, a11=3c+a8

a11=3c+4c+2c2=18

a11=3c+8c+c2=18

A bag of chips is 24 ounces. A serving size is 3/4 ounce. How many servings are in the bag of chips?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "32 servings".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are,

A bag of chips = 24 ounces

Serving size = 3/4 ounces

Servings = ?

Now,

On dividing "24 ounces" by "3/4 ounce", we get

⇒ $\frac{24}{\frac{3}{4}}$

⇒ $24\times \frac{4}{3}$

⇒ $8\times 4$

⇒ $32$

Thus, the bag of chips contains "32" servings.
