Find the sum of a finite geometric series. The sides of an equilateral triangle measure 16 inches. The midpoints of the sides of

the triangle are joined to form another equilateral triangle with sides that are half the length of the outer triangle. This process is continued until three triangles are inscribed in the first triangle. The sum of the perimeters of all four triangles is inches.

Answer with explanation:

⇒Perimeter of Any Triangle=Sum of three Sides of triangle

Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle having side 16 inches =16+16+16=48 inches

Now, The midpoints of the sides of the triangle are joined to form another equilateral triangle with sides that are half the length of the outer triangle.

Perimeter of Second Triangle = 8+8+8=24 inches

Perimeter of Third Triangle = 4 +4+4=12 inches

Perimeter of fourth Triangle = 2 +2+2=6 inches

The sum of the perimeters of all four triangles in inches

                                                   =48 +24+12+6

                                                   =90 inches

Last year, a women's professional organization made two small-business loans totaling $28,000 to young women beginning their own
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

$7,000 at a rate of 7% and $21,000 at a rate of 14%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be amount invested at 7% and y be amount invested at 14%.

We have been given that a women's professional organization made two small-business loans totaling $28,000. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x+y=28,000...(1)

The interest earned at 7% in one year would be 0.07x and interest earned at 14% in one year would be 0.14x.

We are also told that the organization received from these loans was $3,430. We can represent this information in an equation as:

0.07x+0.14y=3,430...(2)

Form equation (1), we will get:

x=28,000-y

Upon substituting this value in equation (2), we will get:

0.07(28,000-y)+0.14y=3,430

1960-0.07y+0.14y=3,430

1960+0.07y=3,430

1960-1960+0.07y=3,430-1960

0.07y=1470

\frac{0.07y}{0.07}=\frac{1470}{0.07}

y=21,000

Therefore, an amount of $21,000 was invested at a rate of 14%.

x=28,000-y

x=28,000-21,000

x=7,000

Therefore, an amount of $7,000 was invested at a rate of 14%.

Help please this increases my average mark
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

He drove 111 miles

If we were given the distance Lan drove last weekend instead off how much gas he used then we would have to find the amount of gas used by lan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ian's car can go 185 miles on 5 gallons of gas

On 5 gallons of gas lan's car can go 185 miles

Therefore in gallon of gas lan 's car can go

185/5 = 37

So, for 3 gallons of gas lan's car can go

3 × 37 = 111

for 3 gallons of gas lan's car can go 111 miles

If we were given the distance Lan drove last weekend instead off how much gas he used then we would have to find the amount of gas used by lan.
