The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
here are five rods a-1 a a a a+3 all measurements are in cm the total length of the five rods is l cm find a formula for l in terms of a write your formula as simply as possible
Answer:
L= (5a + 2) cm
Explanation:
Let the total length of the five rods be L
There are five straight rods of lengths; a-1, a, a, a, a+3
To obtain L;
L= a-1 + a + a+ a + a+3
Hence;
L= (5a + 2) cm
Wouldn’t it be mood? not forsure but i think so
