Answer:

Area of each piece = 104 cm^{2}

Possible dimensions are 26 cm by 4 cm, 13 cm by 8 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Dimensions of the rectangular board as:

Length of the board is 10 cm longer than its width.

Width of the board = 26 cm

Length of the board = 26 + 10 = 36 cm

The rectangular board is divided into 9 equal pieces.

To find:

Area of each piece and

the possible dimensions of each piece = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us calculate the area of bigger rectangular board.

Area of a rectangle is given by the following formula:

Area = Length \times Width

Area = 26 \times 36 cm^2

Area of each smaller rectangle = \frac{26\times 36}{9} = 104\ cm^2

To find the possible dimensions, we need to find the factors of 104.

104 = 26 \times 4

104 = 13 \times  8

Therefore, the Possible dimensions are 26 cm by 4 cm

and

13 cm by 8 cm.

What is the first term in a geometric sequence if the common ratio is − 2 and the sum of the first six terms is −105?
Serggg [28]
\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}
\\\\
S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
r=-2\\
n=6\\
S_6=-105
\end{cases}

\bf -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(-2)^6}{1-(-2)} \right)\implies -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(64)}{1+2} \right)
\\\\\\
-105=a_1\left( \cfrac{-63}{3} \right)\implies -105=a_1(-21)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-105}{-21}=a_1\implies 5=a_1
