The triangles are congruent. So.

Triangle ABC is 24 inch^2 and BC is 4 inches.
The area of a triangle is 0.5 x base x height. The will be 12 because 12 x 4 x 0.5 which equals 24.

Triangle DEF is half the size of ABC because bc is 4 and EF is 2 showing it’s half. This then means the height will be half which then mean it will be 6.

This then means we can use the equation to work it out. So. 6 x 0.5 x 2 = 6in^2

The answer is 6inches^2

In a school there are 1000 boys and 800 girls. Calculate the percentage of boys and girls

Arisa [49]

Answer:

55.55%= boys & 44.44% = girl

Step-by-step explanation:

1000/(1000+800)=1000/1800=.5555 or 55.55% are boys

800/(1000+800)=800/1800=.4444 or 44.44% are girls.

Therefore, 55,55% are boys and 44.44% are girls.

Find the explicit formula for the sequence? -1,4,-16,64......

Ede4ka [16]

The explicit formula for given sequence is: $a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is:

-1,4,-16,64.....

We can see that there is no same difference between consecutive terms so we will find common ratio to see if it is a geometric sequence.

Here

$a_1 = -1\\a_2 = 4\\a_3 = -16\\a_4 = 64\\r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{4}{-1} = -4\\r = \frac{a_3}{a_2} = \frac{-16}{4} = -4$

The explicit formula for geometric sequence is:

$a_n = a_1r^{n-1}$

Putting the values of r and a1

$a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Hence

The explicit formula for given sequence is: $a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}$

Express the volume of the box as a<br>polynomial in the variable x

Whitepunk [10]

The volume of the box as a polynomial in the variable x is x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)

<h3>How to determine the volume?</h3>

The complete question is added as an attachment

From the attached image, we have:

Length = 12 - 2x

Width = 7 - 2x

Height = x

The volume is calculated as:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Volume = (12 - 2x) * (7 - 2x) * x

This gives

Volume = x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)

Hence, the volume of the box as a polynomial in the variable x is x(12 - 2x)(7 - 2x)
