The size of a television is the length of the diagonal of its screen in inches. The aspect ratio of the screens of older televis

ions is 4:3, while the aspect ratio of newer wide-screen televisions is 16:9. Find the width and height of an newer 75-inch television whose screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9

Answer:

The Width = 65.44 inches

The Height = 36.81 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that:

The width and height of an newer 75-inch television whose screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9

Using Pythagoras Theorem we known that:

Width² + Height² = Diagonal²

Since we known that the size of a television is the length of the diagonal of its screen in inches.

Hence, for this new TV

Width² + Height² = 75²

We are given ratio: 16:9 as aspect ratio

Width = 16x

Height = 9x

(16x)² +(9x)² = 75²

= 256x² + 81x² = 75²

337x² = 5625

x² = 5625/337

x² = 16.691394659

x = √16.691394659

x = 4.0855103303

Approximately x = 4.09

For the newer 75 inch tv set

The Height = 9x

= 9 × 4.09

= 36.81 inches

The Width = 16x

= 16 × 4.09

= 65.44 inches.

P = 2(L + W)
L = W + 5
A = 4P + 2

P = 2(W + 5 + W)
P = 2(2W + 5)
P = 4W + 10

A = 4P + 2
A = 4(4W + 10) + 2
A = 16W + 42

A = L * W
A = W(W + 5)
A = W^2 + 5W

W^2 + 5W = 16W + 42
W^2 + 5W - 16W - 42 = 0
W^2 - 11W - 42 = 0
(W + 3)(W - 14) = 0

W - 14 = 0
W = 14 <==

L = W + 5
L = 14 + 5
L = 19 <==

P = 2(19 + 14)
P = 2(33)
P = 66

A = L * W
A = 19 * 14
A = 266

answer : length = 19, width = 14....perimeter = 66....area = 266

Could someone please help me with this? I would mark you as Brainliest:)
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

a) The table of values represents the ordered pairs formed by the elements of the sequence (a_{i}) (range) and their respective indexes (i) (domain):

i         a_{i}

1         6

2        11

3        16

4        21

5        26

b) The algebraic expression for the general term of the sequence is a(i) = 6 + 5\cdot (i - 1).

c) The 25th term in the sequence is 126.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Make a table of values for the sequence 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, ...

The table of values represents the ordered pairs formed by the elements of the sequence (a_{i}) (range) and their respective indexes (i) (domain):

i         a_{i}

1         6

2        11

3        16

4        21

5        26

b) Based on the table of values, we notice a constant difference between two consecutive elements of the sequence, a characteristic of arithmetic series, whose form is:

a(i) = a_{1} + r\cdot (i - 1) (1)

Where:

a_{1} - First element of the sequence.

r - Arithmetic difference.

i - Index.

If we know that a_{1} = 6 and r = 5, then the algebraic expression for the general term of the sequence is:

a(i) = 6 + 5\cdot (i - 1)

c) If we know that a(i) = 6 + 5\cdot (i - 1) and i = 25, then the 25th term in the sequence is:

a(25) = 6 + 5\cdot (25 - 1)

a(25) = 126

The 25th term in the sequence is 126.

Find the surface area of the prism.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

400cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area of a prism includes the area of the top and bottom triangle sides of the prism, plus the area of all 3 rectangular sides.

Base & Bottom triangle area: 2 x [(8 x 15)/2] = 120cm²

Side triangle area: 17 x 7 + 8 x 7 + 15 x 7 = 280cm²

Total surface area = 280 + 120 = 400cm²
