Answer:
a) w(4w-15)
b) w²
c) w(4w -15) = w²
d) w = 5
e) 5 by 5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) If w is the width, and the length is 15 less than 4 times the width, then the length is 4w-15. The area is the product of length and width.
A = w(4w -15)
__
b) If w is the side length, the area of the square is (also) the product of length and width:
A = w²
__
c) Equating the expressions for area, we have ...
w(4w -15) = w²
__
d) we can subtract the right side to get ...
4w² -15w -w² = 0
3w(w -5) = 0
This has solutions w=0 and w=5. Only the positive solution is sensible in this problem.
The side length of the square is 5 units.
__
e) The rectangle is 5 units wide, and 4(5)-15 = 5 units long.
The rectangle and square have the same width and the same area, so the rectangle must be a square.
Okay, this is not really an answer, but I think in 2020, we will be in the 20 trillions. O know that is not the answer you were looking for, but its all I got.
I'm assuming that you are talking about sequences <3
In the context of a recursive formula where we have "n-1" in sub-index of "a", you can think of "a" as the previous term in the sequence. In the context of an explicit formula like "-5+2(n-1)" "n-1" represents how many times we need to add 2 to the first term to get the nth term.
Dw if you don't understand, sequences and functions isn't an easy topic
