Answer:

30 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the main area of the rectangle to determine the changes.

We know, Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Given,

Length = 12 feet

Width = 5 feet

Therefore, the area of the rectangle = (12 × 5) Square feet.

The area of the rectangle = 60 square feet.

Now, if the length of the rectangle increased by 25%, the new length would be = 12 feet (12 feet × 25%) = 12 feet + 3 feet = 15 feet.

If the width increased by 20%, the latest width would be = 5 feet + (5 feet × 20%) = 5 feet + 1 foot = 6 feet.

The new area of that rectangle = (15 × 6) square feet = 90 square feet.

The changes of area from the previous rectangle is = (90 - 60) square feet = 30 square feet.

Find the 8th term of the geometric sequence, given the first term and common ratio. a1=6 r=-1/3
Damm [24]

The rule of a geometric sequence:

a_n=a_1r^{n-1}

We have:

a_1=6;\ r=-\dfrac{1}{3}

Find a_8=?\to n=8

substitute:

a_8=6\cdot\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)^{8-1}=6\cdot\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)^7=6\cdot\left(-\dfrac{1}{2187}\right)=-\dfrac{2}{729}

A municipality has budgeted R80 000 for putting up new street name boards The street name boards cost R134 each. How many new st
ivanzaharov [21]

The Municipality we be able to set up 597 street name boards with R2 left in the budget.

Data;

  • Amount Budgeted = R80,000
  • Cost of each board = R134

<h3>Number of Street Boards in the Budget</h3>

The number of streets boards that can be produced in the budget is calculated by dividing the total amount budgeted by the cost of each street board. This is done mathematically as

x = \frac{80000}{134}\\x = 597.01

We would have a total of 597 street names on the budget with some amount left.

We can calculated this by multiplying 597 by 134 and then subtracting the value from R80,000

597 * 134 = 79998 \\R80,000 - R79998 = R2

The Municipality we be able to set up 597 street name boards with R2 left in the budget.

Answer:

Via its graph, you can identify exponential and linear functions. Linear functions are straight lines, while curved lines are exponential functions. By the adjustment in y, you can also recognize them. If you apply the same number to y, then the function changes continuously and is linear.
