An = 5(-4)^(n - 1)
an + 1 = 5(-4)^(n + 1 - 1) = 5(-4)^n
an = 5(-4)^(n - 1) = 5(-4)^n/(-4) = an + 1/(-4)
an + 1 = -4an
an + 1 - 1 = -4 an - 1
an = -4an - 1

What is the simplified form of the quantity of x plus 8, all over the quantity of 3x plus 7 + the quantity of x plus 7, all over
Temka [501]
\frac{x+8}{3x+7} + \frac{x+7}{x+4}  \\ = \frac{(x+8)(x+4)+(x+7)(3x+7)}{(3x+7)(x+4)}  \\ = \frac{ x^{2} +12x+32+3 x^{2} +28x+49}{3 x^{2} +19x+28}  \\ = \frac{4 x^{2} +40x+81}{3 x^{2} +19x+28}

A cement walk 3 ft wide is placed around the outside of a rectangular garden plot that is 20ft by 30ft. Find the cost of the wal
Inessa05 [86]

Let us calculate the area of the walk.

Since the width of the walk is 3 feet, and the walk will be placed all the 4 sides,

Length of the plot including walk = 20 + (2 × 3) = 20 + 6 = 26 feet.

Breadth of the plot including walk = 30 + (2 × 3) = 36 feet.

Area of the plot including walk = 26 × 36 square feet.

Area of the plot = 20 × 30 square feet.

Area of the walk = (26 × 36) - (20 × 30)

= 936 - 600

= 336 square feet.

= \frac{336}{3(3)} square yards

= 37.3 square yards

Cost of the walk per square yard = $12.25.

Therefore, total cost of the walk = 12.25 × 37.3 = $456.92.
