Answer:

The surface area applies to how much space a SOLID objects occupies while volume is the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or contains, so volume can be anything.

<em>Finding the volume of a figure means finding how much of a unit can fit within that figure. You can find the volume of a figure by multiplying L x W x H. Finding the surface area of a figure means how much area there is on a figure. You can do this by finding each side's area, then add the side's areas together. (If you are finding surface area of a cube, it is 6(L x W). For a rectangular prism, it is a(L x W) + b(L x W).) Basically, the math behind the answer is what makes these two things different.</em>

What are the next three terms of the following sequence?

kaheart [24]

we know that given terms were i geometric progression.

which means common ratio is same between two consecutive terms .

here we have 8,40,200,1000.

we know that common ratio =second term/first term =40/8=5.

so each and every terms is multiplied by 5 to get next term for this series the term after 1000 is 5000 =1000*5.

in part b we have another series which is having common ratio of -2.

so we need to multiply with -2 to find next term.

80*(-2)=-160.

for part c the common ratio is -2 .

so we need to multiply with -2 *previous term =-2*16 =-32.

Complete the recursive formula of the arithmetic sequence 8, -5, -18, -31,...8,−5,−18,−31,...8, comma, minus, 5, comma, minus, 1

dimaraw [331]

The recursive formula for the arithmetic sequence is given as follows:

d(1) = 8.

d(n) = d(n - 1) - 13.

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, called common difference d.

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d$

In which $a_1$ is the first term.

The recursive formula for the sequence is given by:

$a_n = a_{n-1} + d$

In the sequence 8, -5, -18, -31,...8,−5,−18,−31, the first term and the common ratio are given as follows:

$a_1 = 8, r = 13$

Hence, the recursive sequence is given by:

d(1) = 8.

d(n) = d(n - 1) - 13.

A post office charges 50k for a telegram of 15 words or less it charges an extra 3k for every word above 15 words find the cost

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

95k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

15 words or less = 50k

Every word above 15 = additional 3k

The cost of 30 words :

First 15 words = 50 k

Number of additional words = (30 - 15) = 15 words

Cost of every additional word = 3 k

Cost of 15 additional word = 15 * 3 = 45k

Total cost of 30 words :

50k + 45k = 95k
