The sequence is, in fact, quadratic. It is described by the equation
.. a[n] = (n*(n -1))/2 +2

First differences are increasing, so the sequence will not be arithmetic. An arithmetic sequence has constant first differences.

Second differences are constant, so the sequence will not be geometric. A geometric sequence will have first-, second-, third-differences, and those to any level, that have the same constant ratio as the terms of the original sequence.

The side of an Equileteral triangle is 12cm. What is its Area?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

A = 62.35 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the area formula A = \frac{\sqrt{3}a^2}{4}, where a is the side length.

Plug in the values:

A = \frac{\sqrt{3}(12^2)}{4}

A = \frac{\sqrt{3}(144)}{4}

A = 62.35 cm²

What is the volume of the cylinder with a radius of 8 and height of 4<br><br>​
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Hey there!

The formula for cylinder volume is r^2h\pi, where r is the radius, h is the height, and \pi is a constant, roughly equal to 3.14.

Substituting all of these values into the equation:

8^2(4)(3.14)

804.84\\

Thus, the volume for the cylinder is 804.84 units cubed.

Hope this helps :)
