Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf \$15.06 \ billion }}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function f(x). This is the value of diamond production for the year in billions.

f(x)= 0.21x+13.8

We want to find the value of the diamond production in 2006.

We know that x is the number of years after 2000. The year 2006 was 6 years after 2000 because 2006 - 2000 = 6. Therefore, x (years after 2000) is equal to 6. We can substitute 6 in for x.

f(6)= 0.21(6)+ 13.8

Solve according to PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction).

Multiply 0.21 and 6.

f(6)= 1.26+13.8

Add 1.26 and 13.8

f(6)=15.06

Remember the answer is in billions of dollars.

f(6)= \$ 15.06 \ billion

Diamond production in 2006 is expected to be worth <u>15.06 billion dollars.</u>

Hello.

To get the volume 5184 in3 you can use the dimension 18in x 24in x 12in.

First, you should draw a picture of your shipping container. It is a rectangular prism that is 5 by 12 by 4.

Next, let's look at the boxes of apples that will go into the box. The volume has to be 5184 in^3. If we divide it by 12 and 12, the answer is 3. Therefore, we could make a box that is 1 foot by 1 foot by 3 feet. 

Those boxes would be stack on the base without any left over space. Now, just figure out how many would go on the next rows. They would be able to stand up and down.

Have a nice day.

A right rectangular pyramid is sliced vertically (down) by a plane passing
Anton [14]

A right rectangular pyramid when sliced vertically, the  shape of the cross-section is known as Triangle.

<h3>What is A triangle?</h3>

This is known to be a kind of shape that is said to be in  a closed form and it is also known to be a 2-dimensional shape that has 3 sides, 3 angles, and also 3 vertices.

Note that when the when the right rectangular pyramid is sliced vertically (down) by a plane passing through the  of the pyramid, the new shape of the cross-section is a triangle.

Hello, can someone please help me on solving this kind of question?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: so i think for part a , the first term is a subscrpit 0 which is 10. Then the formula for any term in the sequence is Ao x R ^n. So R =2 so

1st term = 10 ( 2^0)= 1

2nd term = 10 (2^1) =20

3rd term = 10 (2^2)= 40

4th = 80

5th = 160

Part B

The limit as n approaches infinity for a sub n when R is 0, 1 and 2. THE LIMIT FOR R of 0, 1 and 2 is infinity.

Part C...i will have to research...sorry
