You will find all of the surface area of all of the sides and add them together to find the surface area of the retangular prisim. So, what I would do is the front and back are both 54, so 108. The sides are 27, so 54. The top and bottom are 18, so 36. Add them together, and you will get 198. I hope this helps.
There is only one solution to the equation. A quadratic equation has 2 solutions a positive and a negative, but since we are looking for length, the answer can only be postive. Area= side^2
400= x^2
sqrt(400)=x
20 inches = x
The length of one side is 20 inches
check: 20*20 = 400, which is the area of the square painting.
Answer: 2343 / 256
Explanation
I will do this for you in two forms: 1) adding each term, and 2) using the general formula for the sum of geometric series.
1) Adding the terms:
4
∑ 3 (3/4)^i = 3 (3/4)^0 + 3 (3/4)^1 + 3 (3/4)^2 + 3 (3/4)^3 + 3 (3/4)^4
i=0
= 3 + 9/4 + 27/16 + 81/64 + 243/256 = [256*3 + 27*16 + 64*9 + 4*81 + 243] / 256 =
= 2343 / 256
2) Using the formula:
n-1
∑ A (r^i) = A [1 - r^(n) ] / [ 1 - r]
i=0
Here n - 1 = 4 => n = 5
r = 3/4
A = 3
Therefore the sum is 3 [ 1 - (3/4)^5 ] / [ 1 - (3/4) ] =
= 3 [ 1 - (3^5) / (4^5) ] / [ 1/4 ] = 3 { [ (4^5) - (3^5) ] / (4^5) } / {1/4} =
= (3 * 781) / (4^5) / (1/4) = 3 * 781 / (4^4) = 2343 / 256
So, no doubt, the answer is 2343 / 256
