The sum of the first 12 terms of a geometric sequence with 10 as the first term and a common ratio of 0.3 is __________.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: 14.2638366937

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which each term is multiplied by a number, called the common ratio, to get the next term.

So, if the first term of the geometric sequence is 10 and the common ratio is 0.3, the sequence would be 10, 0.3(10), 0.3 x 0.3 x 10... and so forth. This becomes:

10, 3, 0.9, 0.27, 0.081, 0.00243, 0.00729, 0.002187, 0.0006561, 0.00019683, 0.000059049, 0.0000177147...

You add these first 12 terms to get 14.2638366937.

A rectangular piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length of the piece of metal

y ----> the original width of the piece of metal

we know that

When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box

The dimensions of the box are

$L=(x-10)\ in\\W=(y-10)\ in\\H=5\ in$

The volume of the box is equal to

$V=(x-10)(y-10)5$

$V=930\ in^3$

$930=(x-10)(y-10)5$

simplify

$186=(x-10)(y-10)$ -----> equation A

Remember that

The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide

$x=y+25$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$186=(y+25-10)(y-10)$

solve for y

$186=(y+15)(y-10)\\186=y^2-10y+15y-150\\y^2+5y-336=0$

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=16

see the attached figure

Find the value of x

$x=16+25=41$

therefore

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
