Answer:

960.42\text{ ft}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.  

We have been given that a community pool that is shaped like a regular pentagon needs a new cover for the winter months.

To find the area of community pool we will use area of pentagon formula.

\text{Area of pentagon}=\frac{1}{2}a*p, where, a represents the apothem or perpendicular distance from the center of the pentagon and p represents perimeter of pentagon.

Let us find the perimeter of our given pentagon by multiplying each side length by 5.

\text{Perimeter of community pool}=5\times 23.62

\text{Perimeter of community pool}=118.1

Now let us find apothem of our pentagon by using Pythagoras theorem.  

a^2=20.10^2-11.81^2

a^2=404.01-139.4761

a^2=264.5339

a=\sqrt{264.5339}

a=16.2645

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

\text{Area of community pool}=\frac{1}{2}\times 16.2645\times 118.1

\text{Area of community pool}=8.13224907\times 118.1

\text{Area of community pool}=960.418615627971\approx 960.42

Therefore, the area of the pool that needs to be covered is 960.42 square feet.

Find the 11th term of the arithmetic sequence. <br> a3 = 20.5 and a8 = 13, a11 = ______. ...?
lianna [129]
In order to solve for a nth term in an arithmetic sequence, we use the formula written as:<span>

an = a1 + (n-1)d

where an is the nth term, a1 is the first value in the sequence, n is the term position and d is the common difference.

First, we need to calculate for d from the given values above.  
<span>a3 = 20.5 and a8 = 13
</span>

an = a1 + (n-1)d
20.5 = a1 + (3-1)d

</span>an = a1 + (n-1)d
13 = a1 + (8-1)d
<span>
a1 = 23.5
d = -1.5

The 11th term is calculated as follows:

a11 = a1 + (n-1)d
a11= 23.5 + (11-1)(-1.5)
a11 = 8.5</span>

AWARDING EXTRA POINTSWhat is the distance between point A (-3, -2) and Point B (4, -7)?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

<em>8</em><em>.</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is

√ ( (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 )

In your points:

A (-3, -2)

-3 is x1

-2 is y1

B (4, -7)

4 is x2

-7 is y2

Plug in to distance formula

√ ( 4-( -3))^2 + ( -7 - (-2))^2

√ (4+3)^2 + (-7+2)^2

√ (7^2) + ( -5)^2

√ 49 + 25

√ 74

This equals roughly 8.6 units!
