Answer:
The equation is p=34a+12, and a=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is all of the sides added together
p=12a+6a+8+6a+8+10a-4
Combine like-terms
p=34a+12
Solve for a by making p equal to 250
250=34a+12
Subtract 12 from both sides
238=34a
Divide both sides by 34
7=a
You divide each total amount by the number of persons Popcorn: 48/6 = 8 Licorice: 3 X 48 = 144 144/6 = 24 So each person ate 8 ounces of popcorn and 24 inches of licorice laces
If a(n) = (39n^4 -506n^3 + 2341n^2 - 4610n + 3416) / 8 then
<span>a(1) = 85 </span>
<span>a(2) = 17 </span>
<span>a(3) = 19 </span>
<span>a(4) = 4 </span>
<span>a(5) = 2</span>
