Answer:

Explicit formula: s_{n}=6(2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of squares in n^{th} layer be s_{n}

Given:

Number of squares in first layer, s_{1}=6

Number of squares in second layer, s_{2}=12

Therefore, the number of squares increases by a factor of 2.

So, it follows a geometric sequence with the first term as 6 and common ratio of 2.

For a geometric sequence, the n^{th} term with common ratio r is given as:

s_{n}=s_{1}\times r^{n-1}

Here, r=2,s_{1}=6

∴ Explicit formula: s_{n}=6(2)^{n-1}

Plzzz help with all of the questions and plzZZZzZz show work I really need help I’m not understanding help with all the question
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

slope of EF=\frac{5}{3}  

∠QSR=45°,

∠PTQ=90°

if  RT=24

then SQ=48

square is always a rectangle

∠SUT=21°

Step-by-step explanation:

two line are perpendicular to each other if product of their slope equal to -1

m_{1}\times m_{2}=-1

slope of HE=m_1=-\frac{3}{5}

slope of EF=m_2

slope of EF=-1\frac{-5}{3}=\frac{5}{3}

slope of EF=\frac{5}{3}    answer

∠QSR=45°,

∠PTQ=90°

if  RT=24

then SQ=48

square is always a rectangle

given ∠SUT=3x+6

        ∠RUS=5x-4

∠SUT=∠RUS

3x+6=5x-4

x=5

∠SUT=3x+6=15+6=21°

∠SUT=21°

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

The side G-F is the same side as side Q-R so 2 times 8 is 16

and 16 - 4 is 12

so x=8
