Answer:
they both have a pattern and different shapes
Step-by-step explanation:
give me brainlest NOW
The first term is 8, so 
Each time we want a new term, we add on 3
8+3 = 11
11+3 = 14
14+3 = 17
17+3 = 20
23+3 = 26
and so on
This recursive step of adding on 3 to the prior term is written as this: 
which says "to get the nth term, add 3 to the term just before the nth term"
Based on what you posted for your answer choices, the final answer is likely choice C. However it seems some weird typo happened.
Answer:
320 in.²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's think of the shape as a normal rectangle with a height of 16 inches. Now all we need is the length. If you look at the right corner, it looks like a piece has been cut out. Since that piece has the same length and height of 8 inches, it is a square. This tells us the missing length of the entire length of the rectangle. Now the length of the rectangle is 16 inches + 8 inches, which is 24 inches.
The total area of the rectangle is 16 × 24, which is 384.
Then from the total area, we just need to subtract the area of the cut-out part. The area of the cut-out square is 8 × 8, which is 64.
384 - 64 = 320
The total surface area of the following complex shape is 320 in.²
