Answer:

Perimeter of the smaller square = 9 ft

Perimeter of the larger square = 18 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Perimeter of the smaller square = x

The perimeter of the larger square is twice the perimeter of the smaller square.

Perimeter of the larger square = 2x

Total Length of the piece of wire = 27 ft

Total = smaller + larger

27 = x + 2x

27 = 3x

x = 27/3

x = 9 ft

Perimeter of the smaller square = x

= 9 ft

Perimeter of the larger square = 2x

= 2(9)

= 18 ft

natima [27]

To solve this, let's use the variable 'x' to represent the money invested:

11(0.026(x)) = 6500

0.286x = 6500

Divide:

x = 227272.7272...

We can round up:

x = 227272.73

June has to invest $227272.73

Find the sum of the following ap .1) 1/15, 1/12, 1/10,....,to 11 terms​
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

33/20

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 1/15 = 5/60 - 4/60 = 1/60

d = 1/60

a_n = a_1 + d(n - 1)

a_11 = 1/15 + (1/60)(11 - 1)

a_11 = 1/15 + 1/6

a_11 = 4/60 + 10/60

a_11 = 14/60

a_11 = 7/30

a_12 = 14/60 + 1/60

a_12 = 15/60

a_12 = 1/4

s_n = n(a_1 + a_n)/2

s_11 = 11(1/15 + 7/30)/2

s_11 = 11(2/30 + 7/30)/2

s_11 = 11(9/30)/2

s_11 = 99/60

s_11 = 33/20

kakasveta [241]
I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “write it in math,” however I can tell you what I think.
4y=x
(It says that x is 4 times the value of y which means that y times 4 is x.)
