Answer:
it seems like the first term is -64, so lets write the formula accordingly:
a_n = a1(r)^(n-1)
where 'n' is the number of terms
a1 is the first term of the sequence
'r' is the ratio
the ratio is because -64 *
= 16 and so on...
the explicit formula is :
=
Answer: Length = 28 feet and width = 9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = width of the wall.
Then, Length of the wall = 10+2x
Since , Area of rectangle = length x width
Then, as per given,
Since width cannot be negative , so x = 9
So width = 9 feet and length = 10+2(9)=10+18 = 28 feet
Hence, length is 28 feet and width is 9 feet of the wall of the barn.
