Answer:
w= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I just started by making an educated guess using the values already given. Then I inserted that into the problem to see if it worked.
L= 2w - 5
I used 6 as a random, educated guess for the value of w.
L = 2(6) - 5
L = 12-5
L = 7
Then, multiply L by 2 to account for both side lengths of the rectangle.
7(2)= 14
Subtract that value from the total perimeter to find what the width must equal.
26 - 14 = 12
Divide that answer by 2 since there are two sides for width.
12/2 = 6
I know this was kind of long, but I hope it helps! :)
Answer:
idk how to do this
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the common difference...to do this we subtract the first term from the second term. -7 - (-1) = -7 + 1 = -6
now we are going to find the 10th term
an = a1 + (n-1)*d <== formula for finding any term in arithmetic series
a1 = 1st term, d = common difference, n = term we want to find
now we sub
a10 = -1 + (10 -1) * -6
a10 = -1 + (9 * -6)
a10 = -1 - 54
a10 = - 55
now we will find the sum
Sn = (n (a1+ an)) / 2 <== formula for finding the sum
S10 = (10(-1 - 55))/2
S10 = (10(-56) / 2
S10 = -560/2
S10 = - 280
so the sum of the first 10 numbers is -280
