If w = width, then length = w+10, then the area is given by

lw = A or
(w+10)(w) = A or
(w+10)(w) = 375 or
w² + 10w = 375

The 8th and 20th terms of an arithmetic sequence are 20 and 56 respectively. What is the 1st term of the sequence.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

<h3> a₁ = -1</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_n=a_1+d(n-1)\\\\a_8=a_1+d\cdot7\\\\a_{20}=a_1+d\cdot19\\\\a_{20}-a_8=a_1+19d-(a_1+7d)=12d\\\\56-20=2d\\\\12d=36\\\\d=3\\\\\\ a_1+3\cdot7=20\\\\a_1=20-21=-1$

If there are 6 serving in a 2/3 pound lb package of pound is in each serving

Serhud [2]

Answer:

$\boxed{\math{\frac{1}{9}\text{ lb}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Size of one serving} = \dfrac{\text{Total size}}{\text{No of servings}} = \dfrac{\frac{2}{3}\text{ lb}}{\text{6 servings}}\\\\\text{Change the 6 to a fraction and change divide to multiply}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3} \div 6 = \dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{6}$

$\text{Cancel the 2s}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{6} = \dfrac{1}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\\text{Multiply numerators and denominators}\\\\\dfrac{1}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{9}\\\\\text{Each serving contains }\boxed{\mathbf{\frac{1}{9}\textbf{ lb}}}$

What is the measure of each angle?

Elza [17]

Answer:

The measure of the angles are 46, 89, and 41 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to add all 3 angles together and set equal to 180. Then we can find x.

x + 2x - 3 + x - 5 = 180

4x - 8 = 180

4x = 188

x = 46

Now we can find the value of each angle using the value of x.

Angle 1:

x = 46

Angle 2:

2x - 3

2(46) - 3

92 - 3

89

Angle 3:

x - 5

46 - 5

41
