Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of a geometric progression can be determined by using the formula:
Tn=arn−1
where: a = first term and r = common ratio
Substitute the given values of first term and common ratio into the formula:
Tn=arn−1
T5=(40)(0.5)5−1
T5=(40)(0.5)4
T5=(40)(0.0625)
T5=2.5
48.
For the rectangle, 4x6 =24
For the triangle, area of the triangle is 1/2 x base x height. So, 24.
Add together is 48
