Answer:
a(n) = 20*2.5^(n - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 50 is 2.5 times 20, and that 125 is 2.5 times 50. Thus the common factor is 2.5. The formula for the nth term is
a(n) = a(1)*r^(n - 1) => a(n) = 20*2.5^(n - 1)
Answer:
16,999,283
Step-by-step explanation:
First off, let's convert the decimal to a fraction, notice, we have two decimals, so we'll use in the denominator, a 1 with two zeros then, two decimals, two zeros, thus
now, we know then the ratio dimensions for the new photograph,

The answer to this question is p+3
P=x+38
add all individual sides together (is also the perimeter):
p=(x+3)+(x-5)+x+(x-2)+(x-4)+(x-1)+(x-1)
=7x-10
set both p equal:
x+38=7x-10
38=6x-10
48=6x
8=x
then insert x=8 in all the side/perimeter equations:
p=x+38=8+38=46
sides:
x=8
x-2=8-2=6
x-1=8-1=7
x-4=8-4=4
x-5=8-5=3
x+3=8+3=11
