This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by
2

1 meter = 100 cm. So 1 1/2 meters = 150 cm.
Answer:Did he ever come back?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
22. Perimeter = 52 units
Area = 160 Square Units
23. Notation form : 
Standard Form : 200000
Step-by-step explanation:
22.
The formula for perimeter is
P = 2 (length + Width )
= 2 ( 2x+3x+1)
= 2(5x+1)
The Formula for Area of a rectangle is
A= length x width
A= 
A=
Now we have to find the Perimeter and Area for x = 5
P = 2(5 x 5 +1)
P= 2(26)
P=52 units
A= 6 x 5 x 5 + 2 x 5
A= 150 + 10
A= 160 square units
