Answer:
a. S = 3n + 2
b. There while be 62 squares.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the first term of this sequence is 5. To figure out the equation, subtract the following term from the previous. Do you see a common difference?
8 - 5 = 3
11 - 8 = 3
14 - 11 = 3
We're seeing a constant difference of 3 (which makes this an arithmetic sequence), but the first term is 5. That mean something is being added to make the first term 5. Subtract 3 from 5 to get 2. This means 2 is being added to every multiple of 3, which leads us to the equation: S = 3n + 2.
To find the 20th term of this sequence, substitute n for 20 and do the operations.
S = 3(20) + 2
<em>Multiply 3 by 20, then add 2.</em>
S = 62
The 20th term will have 62 squares.

Answer:
75 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We effectively rewrite the equation as
In order for the LHS to be defined, we need to restrict 
, or 
. Now, the LHS will vanish when the numerator is 0, which happens for
This value is indeed smaller than 4, so the solution is 
.
Answer:
43.
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow PEMDAS (Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract). First you do 8-4 which is 4, then you multiply 4 by 4 which is 16 since you multiply next, then you add 27 to 16 which then gets you to 43.
