Answer:
The answer is C because the two figures are not congruent.
Answer:
6 meters by 9 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step 1: Formula for perimeter of rectangle</em></u>
Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length) + 2 (width)
Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length + width)
<u><em>Step 2: Find the length and width in terms of x</em></u>
Width = x
Length = 1.5 times width
Length = 1.5x
<u><em>Step 3: Find x</em></u>
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
30 = 2 (1.5x + x)
30/2 = 2.5x
15/2.5 = x
x = 6
<u><em>Step 4: Find the length and width</em></u>
Width = x = 6 meters
Length = 1.5x = 1.5(6) = 9 meters
Therefore, the dimensions of the room are 6 meters and 9 meters.
Check the forward differences of the sequence.
If
, then let
be the sequence of first-order differences of
. That is, for n ≥ 1,

so that
.
Let
be the sequence of differences of
,

and we see that this is a constant sequence,
. In other words,
is an arithmetic sequence with common difference between terms of 2. That is,

and we can solve for
in terms of
:



and so on down to

We solve for
in the same way.

Then



and so on down to


set up a ratio to find the length:
15/12 = DE/16
cross multiply the 15 & 16:
15 * 16 = 240
divide that by 12 to get DE
240 / 12 = 20
DE = 20
