Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7a. perimeter=3 sides added so the ratio is the same

The ratio of their perimeters is 2 : 3.

True

7b. area= sidexside so the ratio is 2x2:3x3 = 4:9

The ratio of their areas is 4 : 6.

False

7c. 14:21 =2:3

Their perimeters could be 14 cm and 21 cm.

True

7d. 6:7 <> 2:3

Two corresponding sides could be 6 in and 7 in.

False

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two similar triangles have a scale factor of 2 : 3.

7a. The ratio of their perimeters is 2 : 3.

As the sides are 2 : 3, the perimeters which are sums of all sides will also be 2 : 3

True

7b. The ratio of their areas is 4 : 6. True or False

As the sides are 2 : 3, the areas which are the products of two sides will be in the ratio of 2*2 : 3*3 = 4 : 9

False

7c. Their perimeters could be 14 cm and 21 cm. True or False

As the perimeter ratio for 14cm and 21 cm is 14 : 21 = 2 : 3 which complies with 7a. So they could be the perimeters.

True

7d. Two corresponding sides could be 6 in and 7 in. True or False

As the corresponding sides of 6in and 7in, the ratio is 6 : 7 and is different from 2 : 3.  So they cannot be corresponding sides.

False

Given a term in the geometric sequence and the common ratio find the first five terms the explicit form and the recursive formul
Pani-rosa [81]
A1 = 4
a2 = 5a1 = 5 x 4 = 20
a3 = 5a2 = 5 x 20 = 100
a4 = 5a3 = 5 x 100 = 500
a5 = 5a4 = 5 x 500 = 2,500

Tn = ar^(n-1); where a = 4, r = 5
Tn = 4(5)^(n-1) = 4/5 (5)^n
Explicit formular is Tn = 4/5 (5)^n

Recursive formular is a_{n+1} = 5a_{n-1}

PLEASE HELP FAST!! Lake Alice is filled with alligators and turtles. The number of turtles is 16 less than 3 times the number of
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

72 alligators, 128 turtles

Step-by-step explanation:

When you put the words into the form of an equation, with a being alligators, you get

3a-16=200

So you have to do 'letters left numbers right'. This gives you

3a=216

Now you have to divide. 216 divided by 3 equals 72. So there are 72 alligators. 200 minus 72 equals 128, so there are 128 turtles
