Answer:

62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

By dividing 50 by 10 and 10 by 2 we can find that r, or the common ratio is 1/5, meaning that this series converges, so it is solvable. The formula for a convergent series is $\frac{a_{1}}{1-r}$ . By plugging in 1/5 for r and 50 for $a_{1}$ we can find that the sum of this infinite series is 62.5

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2(b+1+b)= 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(l+b)

18 feet= 2(l+b)

length: l, breadth: b

Because the length of the sandbox is 1 foot longer, it will be:

b+1 = l

Substitute l with b+1

2(b+1+b)= 18
