To do this, find the square root of 16.  4 x 4 is 16.  So one side of the square is 4 units.

You just do 16/4. 16 is the area and there are 4 equal sides

Look at the pentagonal numbers. Use finite differences to determine which function represents the pattern.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

f(x) = 1.5x - 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the pattern represented by the pentagonal numbers is the sum of three triangular numbers.

The triangular number general formula

                      x (x + 1) / 2

For  example,

The sequence

1,     3,     6,      10

                                             *

                          *              *  *

         *           *   *          *   *  *

* ,    *  *,     *   *   *,     *   *   *  *

_____________________________

The pentagonal numbers

The sequence:

1, 5, 12, 22, 35

As shown in the picture can be divided into three triangles

Triangle 2

x (x + 1) / 2

Triangle 1 and 3  (they are triangles one unit smaller than 2)

n (n + 1) / 2

n= x-1

Replacing n

(x-1) ((x-1) + 1) / 2

(x-1) (x) / 2

(x-1) x / 2

______________

Function represents the pattern

Triangle 2  + (Triangle 1  +  Triangle 3)

Triangle 1  = Triangle 3

So then,

Triangle 2 + 2* Triangle 1

x (x +1) /2  + 2* (x -1) x/2

Rearranging

0.5 x (x +1) + x(x -1)

0.5x^2 + 0.5x + x^2 -x

(0.5 x^2 + x^2)  + (0.5x -x )

1.5 x^2 - 0.5 x

Can someone help me with this
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  A) 24 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the right triangle base is ...

  A = (1/2)(3)(4) = 6 ft²

The volume of the triangular prism is the product of the area of its base (6 ft²) and its height (4 ft).

  V = Bh = (6 ft²)(4 ft) = 24 ft³ . . . . matches choice A

_____

<em>Comment on the triangle</em>

You know the 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, because you have seen those numbers many times in relation to the Pythagorean theorem. If you don't know that, then you can check to see by using the Pythagorean theorem:

  5² = 3² +4²

  25 = 9 + 16 . . . . . true; so the triangle is a right triangle

In any event, there are other means for finding the area of the triangle based on the lengths of its sides. You will get the same area result.

Using Heron's formula, s = (a+b+c)/2 = (3+4+5)/2 = 6.

  A = √(s(s -a)(s -b)(s -c)) = √(6(3)(2)(1)) = √36 = 6 . . . . area of base triangle

Please help I’m stuck!!
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

130 milliliters.

Step-by-step explanation:

a drug has a ratio of 115mg:5ml. This is equivalent to 23mg:1ml. 3g=3000mg, so we divide 3000 by 23 to get 130.434783. That is how many milliliters are needed. We round it to get 130 mL.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

59.25 < hb ≤ 86.25     (also = 59.3 < 1dp ≤ 86.2  to 1dp)

Step-by-step explanation:

60- 0.75 = human height  therefore 59.25 < h ≤ ?     then to find greatest height  we subtract again  87 - 0.75 = 86.25  and fill in 59.25 < h ≤ ?  = 59.25 < h ≤ 86.25 and should we show inhes to 1 dp we keep lowest rounded up 59.3 < 1dp ≤ 86.2 as lowest bound is 59.15 < lb ≤ 86.15 = 59.25 < hb ≤ 86.25
