Answer:
The perimeter of the triangle can be expressed as 5x + 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of an object is the sum of the length of its sides.
For the required triangle, we have;
length of the base = x
length of the second side = 3x + 9
length of the third side = x + 9
Perimeter of the triangle = length of the base + length of the second side + length of the third side
= x + (3x + 9) + (x + 9)
= x + 3x + 9 + x + 9
= 5x + 18
The perimeter of the triangle can be expressed as 5x + 18.

Sum of the first ten terms where all terms are positive = 4092
========================================================
Explanation:
r = common ratio
- first term = 4
- second term = (first term)*(common ratio) = 4r
- third term = (second term)*(common ratio) = (4r)*r = 4r^2
The first three terms are: 4, 4r, 4r^2
We're given that the sequence is: 4, 5x, 16
Therefore, we have these two equations
Solve the second equation for r and you should find that r = -2 or r = 2 are the only possible solutions. If r = -2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = -8/5. If r = 2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = 8/5.
-----------------
To find the sum of the first n terms, we use this geometric series formula
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
We have
- a = 4 = first term
- r = 2, since we want all the terms to be positive
- n = 10 = number of terms to sum up
So,
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
S10 = 4*(1 - 2^10)/(1 - 2)
S10 = 4*(1 - 1024)/(-1)
S10 = 4*(-1023)/(-1)
S10 = 4092
