an = a1r^(n-1)
a5 = a1 r^(5-1)
-6 =a1 r^4
a2 = a1 r^(2-1)
-48 = a1 r
divide
-6 =a1 r^4
---------------- yields 1/8 = r^3 take the cube root or each side
-48 = a1 r 1/2 = r
an = a1r^(n-1)
an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)
-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1
divide by 1/2
-96 = a1
an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)
the sum
Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]
S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]
=-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]
= 192 * [-131071/131072]
approximately -192
Answer:
Mark me as brainlist
Step-by-step explanation:
P = Perimeter
L = Length
W = Width
Perimeter of rectangle = L + L + W + W
or P = 2L + 2W
You know:
P = 36 inches
L = 2W [length is(=) 2 times it's width]
W = ?
P = 2L + 2W
Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in 2W for L since L = 2W
36 = 2(2W) + 2W Simplify
36 = 4W + 2W
36 = 6W Divide 6 on both sides
6 = W Now that you know the width, you can find the length:
L = 2W
L = 2(6)
L = 12
L = 12 in
W = 6 in
PROOF
P = 2(12) + 2(6)
P = 24 + 12
P = 36
Vertex = 1,4
range = ( infinity, 4)
maximum
