The first term is 2 and the 20th term is 1048576 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , If the sum of the first 12 terms of a geometric series is 8190 and the common ratio is 2. We need to Find the first term and the 20th term. Let's find out:

We know that Sum of a GP is :

⇒ S_n = \frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}

So ,Sum of first 12 terms is :

⇒ S_1_2 = \frac{a(2^{12}-1)}{2-1}

⇒ 8190=a(2^{12}-1)

⇒ \frac{8190}{4095}=a

⇒ a=2

Now , nth term of a GP is

⇒ a_n = ar^{n-1}

So , 20th term is :

⇒ a_2_0 = 2(2)^{20-1}

⇒ a_2_0 = (2)^{20}

⇒ a_2_0 = 1048576

Therefore , the first term is 2 and the 20th term is 1048576 .

About 12.56 units. 
Solve for x by plugging in values into Pythagorean theorem.
a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}
x^{2} +(x+12)^{2} = 34^{2}
Simplify
2x^{2} + 24x+144 = 1156
Subtract 144 from both sides
2x^{2} + 24x = 1012
divide both sides by 2
x^{2} + 12x = 506
complete the square
x^{2} + 12x + 36 = 506 +36 . = (x+6)^2 = 542
take the square root of both sides.
x+6 = 23.28
subtract by 6 to get  about 17.28 for x.
Plug in values for x to get distance traveled on outside of the yard.
17.28 + (17.28 +12) = 46.56
subtract 34 from the length to get the difference in travel. 46.56-34=12.56

I can’t fail please help

Hey there!

The answer is 6:54

The time on the clock shows 6:20, because the hour hand is after the 6, and the minute hand is on the 4 (which we multiply by 5 to get the minutes).

If it takes her 8 minutes to walk to the bus, 10 to pack lunch, and 16 to get dressed, that's a total of 8 + 10 + 16 minutes, or 34 minutes.

So, we add that to the minutes, so 20 + 34 = 54, therefore the time is 6:54 when she arrives.

Have a terrificly amazing day! :)

John made a rectangle pen for his dog using 28 feet of fencing. If the width of the pen is 2 feet more than one-half the length,
kati45 [8]
Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.

P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2

So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
 2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8

To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6

So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.
