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

Kinda want to cry right now.. Someone PLEASE help me.. I know there is someone out there smart enough.... 25 points and Brainlie

Answer:

a) Infinite solutions

b) No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

First, know the following:

If the graphs intersect, there's only one solution.

If the graphs are parallel, there are no solutions.

If the graphs are the exact same line, there are infinite solutions.

For a):

Change the first equation into a linear one.

  • 2x+3y=6
  • 3y=-2x+6
  • y=-\frac{2}{3} x+2

Change the second equation into a linear one.

  • 4x+6y=12
  • 6y=-4x+12
  • y=-\frac{2}{3} x+2

Boom. You have two equations which are equal. As stated above, graphs on the exact same line have infinite solutions.

For b)

They are already in linear form so hurray.

y=\frac{1}{5} x+2\\y=\frac{1}{5} x+10\\

These lines are parallel since they have the SAME slope but a different y-intercept. As stated above, parallel lines have no solutions.
