Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

a(n) = -3n , n>= 1

Discussion:

a(1) = -3

a(2) = -6

a(3) = -9

a(4) = -12

The pattern looks like a(n) = -3n

Thank you,

MrB

Answer:

[Distance to the Horizon]^2 =Height of the skydiver x Diameter of the Earth

D^2 = 1.4 x 7918

D^2 = 11,085.2

D = Sqrt(11,085.2)

D = ~ 105.28628......miles - Distance to Horizon.

Sara is working on a Geometry problem in her Algebra class. The problem requires Sara to use the two quadrilaterals below to ans

zloy xaker [14]

Part A:

Given a square with sides 6 and x + 4. Also, given a rectangle with sides 2 and 3x + 4

The perimeter of the square is given by 4(x + 4) = 4x + 16

The area of the rectangle is given by 2(2) + 2(3x + 4) = 4 + 6x + 8 = 6x + 12

For the perimeters to be the same

4x + 16 = 6x + 12
4x - 6x = 12 - 16
-2x = -4
x = -4 / -2 = 2

The value of x that makes the <span>perimeters of the quadrilaterals the same is 2.

Part B:

The area of the square is given by

$Area=(x+4)^2=x^2+8x+16$

The area of the rectangle is given by 2(3x + 4) = 6x + 8

For the areas to be the same

$x^2+8x+16=6x+8 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2+8x-6x+16-8=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2+2x+8=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x= \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(8)}}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{4-32}}{2} = \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-28}}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{-2\pm2i\sqrt{7}}{2} =-1\pm i\sqrt{7}$

Thus, there is no real value of x for which the area of the quadrilaterals will be the same.
