Mr. Erickson will be living in the forest

aliina [53]

<em /> $\huge{\boxed{60\ \text{ft}^{3}}}$ <em />

<em>We will assume the tent is in the shape of a triangular prism.</em>

The volume of a triangular prism can be found with the following formula, where $b$ is the width at the base, $h$ is the height, and $l$ is the length.

$V=\frac{1}{2}bhl$

Substitute in the known values.

$V=\frac{1}{2}*5*3*8$

Simplify — use multiplication.

$V=\frac{5}{2}*3*8$

$V=\frac{15}{2}*8$

$V=\frac{120}{2}$

Simplify — use division.

$V=\large{\boxed{60\ \text{ft}^{3}}}$

The volume — or in this case, the amount of living space — is $60\ \text{cubic feet}$ .

Enter a recursive rule for the geometric sequence. 6, −18, 54, −162, ...

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The required recursive formula is:

$a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a geometric sequence as:

6,-18,54,-162,.....

Clearly after looking at different terms of the sequence we could observe that the sequence is an geometric progression (G.P.) with common ratio= -3 denoted by r.

Let $a_n$ represents the nth term of the sequence.

This means that:

$a_1=6, a_2=-18, a_3=54, a_4=-162,......$

As the common ratio is -3.

so,

$a_1=6\\\\a_2=-18=(-3)\times a_1\\\\a_3=54=(-3)\times a_2\\\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}$

Hence, the required recursive formula for the geometric sequence is:

$a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}$

Eric was rock climbing. At one point, he stopped and climbed straight down 2\dfrac{1}{2}2

nikitadnepr [17]

The equation that matches the given situation is $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}=?$ . So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed $4\frac{1}{4}$ meters above.

We know that in mathematics, subtraction means removing something from a group or a number of things. What is left in the group gets smaller when we subtract. The minuend is the first element we use. The subtrahend is the part that is being removed. The difference is the portion that remains after subtraction.

Assume that "negative" means climbing down and "positive" means climbing up. We must locate the elevation change in this area.

Given that Eric climbed straight down $2\frac{1}{2}$ meters. So we can write $-2\frac{1}{2}$ .

Again Eric climbed straight up $6\frac{3}{4}$ meters. So, we can write $6\frac{3}{4}$ .

Then the change = $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}$

= $-\frac{(2*2+1)}{2}+\frac{6*4+3}{4}$

= $-\frac{5}{2} +\frac{27}{4}$

= $\frac{-(5*2)+27}{4}$

= $\frac{-10+27}{4}$

= $\frac{17}{4}$

= $\frac{4*4+1}{4}$

= $4\frac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the equation that matches the given situation is $-2\frac{1}{2}+6\frac{3}{4}=?$ . So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed $4\frac{1}{4}$ meters above.
