An object falls 9 meters during the first second, another 27 meters during the second second, and then 81 meters more during the

third second. If this pattern continues, how far does the object fall during the first 4 seconds?
Hint: cap s sub n equals start fraction a sub one left parenthesis one minus r to the power of n end power right parenthesis over one minus r end fraction comma r ≠ 1, where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio.

360 meters is the answer as 9 meter in 1st second ,27 meter in 2nd and 81 in 3rd it is in a series of geometric progression ...of 9,27,81 in which 9*3 =27,27*3=81 so next number will be 81*3=243 total distance moved in 4 seconds is 243+81+27+9=360 meters

1a) False. A square is never a trapezoid. A trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides while the other set of opposite sides are not parallel. Contrast this with a square which has 2 pairs of parallel opposite sides.

1b) False. A rhombus is only a rectangle when the figure is also a square. A square is essentially a rhombus and a rectangle at the same time. If you had a Venn Diagram, then the circle region "rectangle" and the circle region "rhombus" overlap to form the region for "square". If the statement said "sometimes" instead of "always", then the statement would be true.

1c) False. Any rhombus is a parallelogram. This can be proven by dividing up the rhombus into triangles, and then proving the triangles to be congruent (using SSS), then you use CPCTC to show that the alternate interior angles are congruent. Finally, this would lead to the pairs of opposite sides being parallel through the converse of the alternate interior angle theorem. Changing the "never" to "always" will make the original statement to be true. Keep in mind that not all parallelograms are a rhombus.

Find the equation for 4x/5=1/3(2x-15)
tia_tia [17]
4x / 5 = 1 / 3 ( 2x - 15 )
4x / 5= ( 2x - 15 ) / 3
4x × 3 = 5 ( 2x - 15 )
12x = 10x - 75
12x - 10x = - 75
2x = - 75
x = - 75 / 2
x = - 37.5

Stells [14]
<span>To figure the amount of tropical fish in the aquarium you multiple length*height*width to find the cubic centimeters of the tank, then divide that number by 10,000. 60*50*30=90,000 cubic centimeters. 90,000/10,000=9. 9 tropical fish could be places in a tank with those dimensions.</span>
