Use the given recursion and starting value of
to find
:

Do the same for
and
:


(That's not a mistake. This just tells you that the 2nd and 3rd iterates are very close together and have at least the same first 5 digits after the decimal.)
What’s the question?
.????????
Interest=1250-880=370
I=PRT
P=principal
r=rate in deicmal
t=time in years
1 month so t=1/12
P=880
I=370
370=880*r*1/12
370=220/3r
times both sides by 3
1110=220r
divdie both sides by 220
5.04545=r
505% interest
We have an equation: ?/17= 5/8
Cross multiply:
8*?= 5*17
⇒ ?= 5*17/8= 10 5/8
We only need 10 5/8 ft~
With all the given context, I would assume it’s length times width, which would give us an answer of 40 :) hope this helped !
