Answer:

6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term in this sequence is the previous term divided by -2:

104/-2=-52

-52/-2=26

26/-2=-13

So in order to find the next term, we just need to divide the last term by -2:

-13/-2 = 6.5

The next term in the sequence is 6.5

Hope this helped!

Marina CMI [18]

Rectangular with whole numbers
perimiter=legnth+legnth+width+width=2l+2w
therefor
p=2l+2w=2(l+w)
p/2=l+w

perimiter=20
20=2l+2w
divide by 2 to make simpler
10=l+w
find all combos
l>w so
l=9 and w=1
l=8 and w=2
l=7 and w=3
l=6 and w=4
