Answer:

14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this information, we can form an equation.

Since there are 3 sides in a triangle, and each side increased by 6, that means that the perimeter increased by 18 inches. Down below, I did 3x because there are 3 sides in a triangle.

(This is the equation you'd want to do to get the answer)

3x + 3 * 6 = 60

Simplify:

3x + 18 = 60

Same to both sides

3x = 42

Isolate x:

x = 14

An object travels along a circular path so that it completes one revolution in 8 seconds. If the linear velocity of the object i
natima [27]

Answer:

Using the concept of speed-distance-time, we find that the diameter of the circular path is 12 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the object completes one revolution in 8 seconds. So, the circular speed of the object is 2πr/8 = πr/4 inches per seconds, where r is the radius of the circular path. The speed can be written as:

πr/4 inches per seconds = 60πr/4 inches per minute = 15πr inches per minute.

But, it is given that the circular speed of the object is 90π inches per minute. So,

90π = 15πr

r = 6 inches

Since, diameter is the double of radius, d = 2r = 12 inches.

.Given the functions f(n) = 500 and g(n) = (nine tenths)n _ 1, combine them to create a geometric sequence, an, and solve for th
weeeeeb [17]
The original functions are: f(n) = 500 and g(n) = [9/10]^(n-1)

A geometric sequence combining them is: An = f(n)*g(n) = 500*[9/10]^(n-1):

Some terms are:
A1= 500
A2 = 500*[9/10]
A3 = 500*[9/10]^2
A4 = 500*[9/10]^3
....
A11 = 500*[9/10]^10 ≈ 174.339

Answer: the third option, An = 500[9/10]^(n-1); A11 = 174.339
