Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The information in the question can be used to form an equation which goes thus:

2nd term = a + d = 4 ...... i

5th term = a + 4d = 22 ....... ii

From equation i

a = 4 - d ........ iii

Put equation iii into ii

a + 4d = 22

(4 - d) + 4d = 22

4 - d + 4d = 22

4 + 3d = 22

3d = 22 - 4

3d = 18

d = 18/3

d = 6

Commons difference is 6

Since a + d = 4

a + 6 = 4

a = 4 - 6

a = -2

The first term is -2

If the perimeters are equal, you can form an equation to find x:
x + x + 12 + x + x + 12 = x + 11 + x + 11 + x + 16
4x + 24 = 3x + 38
- 3x
x + 24 = 38
- 24
x = 14
Now you can substitute the x value into the perimeter:
(4 × 14) + 24
56 + 24 = 80 cm

(3 × 14) + 38
42 + 38 = 80 cm

So the perimeter would be 80 cm.
I hope this helps!

Jonathan's age is 1/3 Belinda's age now in 12 years Belinda will be m years old write an algebraic expression to represent Brend
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

5 years from now, Johnathan will be (5 + 4) = 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Belinda's age = x

Jonathan's age =1/3 x

In 12 years, Belinda will be m years old :

Belinda's age now = x

Jonathan's age 5 years from now, if m = 36

Belinda's age in 12 years, Belinda's age = m

x + 12 = 36

x = 36 - 12

x = 24 years

Hence Belinda's age now is 24

Jonathan's age now is (1/3) * 12 = 4 years

Hence, 5 years from now, Johnathan will be (5 + 4) = 9 years

inessss [21]
Most of the information's required for finding the answer is already given in the question. 
Height of the fly = 12 feet
Width of the fly = 16 feet
Now we can find the length of the poles using Pythagoras theorem.

Length of the poles = square root [(12)^2 + (8)^2]
                               = square root (144 + 64)
                               = square root (208)
                               = 14.4 feet
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the height of the poles needed to be 14.4 feet. I hope the answer has helped you.
