Ok so I like to go in steps with these questions- first draw a picture and identify your variables.
W=width
L= 3w-1
Now we know that length times width gets us area so we plug in our variables into the area equation.
200 = w(3w-1)
When you foil that equation you end up with a quadratic : 3w^2-w-200 = 0
Either factor that or use the quadratic formula to get
w= 8.33 and w= -8
Since you can't have a negative dimension you need to use 8.33 and plug it back into your length equation.
Final answer:
w= 8.33ft
l= 23.99ft
*Now I simplified the decimals a little bit so you end up with 199.8ft^2 for the area so just add a few decimals on here and there*
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have 'x' students who like math and 'y' students that like science, we can formulate that:
Half of x likes math and science, and also one third of y likes math and science, so:
(1/2) * x = (1/3) * y
x / y = (1/3) / (1/2)
x / y = (1/3) * 2 = 2/3
So the ratio of the number of students who like math to the number of students who like science is 2/3
Answer:
1. KLP + PLM = 180 degrees (straight line)
2. 3x + angle PLM = 180 degrees
3. angle PLM = 180 - 3x
4. PMN = P + PLM (Exterior angle)
5. 2x + 72 = x + 180 - 3x
6. x = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Notice that angle KLP + angle PLM is a straight line, so KLP + PLM = 180 degrees (straight line)
2. angle KLP = 3x, so
3x + angle PLM = 180 degrees
3. angle PLM = 180 - 3x
4. PMN = P + PLM (Exterior angle)
5. 2x + 72 = x + 180 - 3x
6. 5 gives 4x = 108, so x = 27
The first term(a1) is 3
The second term (a2) is obtained by multiplying 3*(-5)
The third term A3 by multiplying 3 * -5 -5 = a2 times -5
Than you go on and one with that
But your answer is
A1=3;an+1=an(-5)
