Answer: he needs to buy 578.5 yard² of Sod.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the lawn is square shaped, the formula for determining the area of a square is

Area = length²

If the length of each side of the lawn is 24 1/2 = 24.5 ft

Area of the lawn = 24.5² = 600.25yard²

The area of the pool house is 16yard²

The area of the side walk is

3 × 1 = 3 yard²

The length of the pool is 7 1/2 = 7.5yards

The width of the pool is 2 1/2 = 2.5 yards. Therefore,

Area of pool = 7.5 × 2.5 = 18.75 yard²

Therefore, the amount of Sod that he needs to buy is

600.25 - (3 + 18.75) = 600.25 - 21.75

= 578.5 yard²

(i)

$\sf{a_n = 20 \times {( \frac{2}{3} )}^{n - 1} }$

(ii)

$\sf S_n = 60 \{1 - { \frac{2}{3}}^{n} \}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline\red{\textsf{Given :-}}$

height of ball (a) = 10m

fraction of height decreases by each bounce (r) = 2/3

$\underline\pink{\textsf{Solution :-}}$

(i) We will use here geometric progression formula to find height an times

${\blue{\sf{a_n = a {r}^{n - 1} }}} \\ \sf{a_n = 20 \times { \frac{2}{3} }^{n - 1} }$

(ii) here we will use the sum formula of geometric progression for finding the total nth impact

$\orange {\sf{S_n = a \times \frac{(1 - {r}^{n} )}{1 - r} }} \\ \sf S_n = 20 \times \frac{1 - ( { \frac{2}{3} })^{n} }{1 - \frac{2}{3} } \\ \sf S_n = 20 \times \frac{1 - {( \frac{2}{3}) }^{n} }{ \frac{1}{3} } \\ \sf S_n = 3 \times 20 \times \{1 - ( { \frac{2}{3}) }^{n} \} \\ \purple{\sf S_n = 60 \{1 - { \frac{2}{3} }^{n} \}}$

The value of a car purchased for $20,000 decreases at a rate of 12% per year. What will be the value of the car after 3 years?

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

$20,000 • .12= $2,400

$2,400 • 3= $7,200

$20,000 - $7,200= $12,800

$12,800
