The recursive formula would be:

This is because the first term, a₁, is 10. A recursive rule is dependent upon the term before it (a(n-1)) and the common ratio. The common ratio, or the number that each term is multiplied by, is -8.
Answer:
w =< 70
(width is less or equal to 70 inches)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l = length, w = width, h = height
Restrictions given in this question:
'sum of perimeter of the base and the height cannot exceed 130 inches'
perimeter of the base is 2 width and 2 length of the box
perimeter = 2w + 2l
Therefore, inequality involves here is
2w + 2l + h =< 130
(Note that =< here means less or equal)
Then a new condition given with
height, h = 60 in
and length is 2.5 times the width
l = 2.5w
Substitute this new condition into the equation will give us the following:
2w + 2(2.5w) + 60 =< 130
2w + 5w + 60 =< 130
7w + 60 =< 130
7w =< 130-60
7w =< 70
w =< 10
Dilation because the sides will not be the same size as the original
