1) 4n

The arithmetic sequence is going up in 4’s (1 x 4 = 4, 4 x 4 = 16)
Therefore the answer is just 4n

2) 0.5n (1/2n)
The arithmetic sequence is going up in 0.5’s (1 x 0.5 = 1/2, 1/2 x 0.5 = 1/4)
Therefore the answer is just 0.5n or if you need it in a fraction it is (1/2n)

3) -7n
The arithmetic sequence is going up in -7’s (7 x -7 = -14, -14 x -7 = 28)
Therefore the answer is just -7n

<em>Hi there!</em>

<em>~</em>

<em>This question struck a chord with me as a highscooler. I never refer to the symbol x as an operator for multiplication because it too closely resembles a variable x. I only use a dot while indicating multiplication of two real numbers. Once students reach Algebra, the need for that is also limited.As far as the history goes, here's what I found: “Today elementary school students use the symbol × for multiplication. William Oughtred (1574-1660), a clergyman who gave free private lessons to pupils interested in mathematics, used the symbol × for multiplication. He also invented 150 other symbols. The × symbol was not readily accepted though. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) thought it resembled the unknown x too much. Thomas Harriot (1560-1621) used the dot (·) for multiplication. This was not used much either until Leibniz adopted it.” It's no surprise that Leibniz was instrumental in the popularization of this notation, as much of the notation we use in Calculus was also developed by Leibniz. In short, there is no difference. Multiplication is a natural operation in mathematics and has just been symbolized in different people in different ways in different periods of time.</em>

<em>Hence they are both easy to use.</em>

<em>❀Hope this helped you!❀</em>

<span>l = length

w = width

h = height


SA = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh.


V = lwh.


Write an expression for the ratio of surface area to volume:


SA / V = [</span><span><span> 2lw + 2wh + 2lh] / </span>lwh 

SA / V = 2lw / lwh + 2wh / lwh + 2lh / lwh

SA / V = 2/h + 2/l + 2/w



Choose an appropriate length, width, and height for your package so that it can fit the product you are shipping. Using these dimensions, what is the ratio of surface area to volume?

I will work with an hypothetical figure where you have , l, w and the volume.


I suppose you know the volume, because it is the amount of product you need to pack. Make V = 1000 cm^3, l = 10 cm and w = 5 cm.

Wtih two dimensions and the volumen you can find the other dimension.


V = lwh = 1000 cm^3 => h = 1000 cm^3 / (lw) = 1000 cm^3 / (10 cm * 5 cm)


h = 1000 cm^3 / (50 cm^2) = 20 cm


Now you have the three dimensions to pack 1000 cm^3 of your product:

l = 10 cm
w = 5 cm
h = 20 cm


And the ratio of surface area to volume is:

SA / V = 2/h + 2/l + 2/w = 2/(20cm) + 2/(10cm) + 2/(5cm) = 0,7 (cm)^-1
