Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
The 1st term = -3
15th term = 53
15th term = a + d(n-1)
53 = -3 + d(15- 1) [Here n = 15)
53 + 3 = d(14)
14d = 56
d = 4
The common difference is 4.
Let
x--------> the border’s length
y--------> the border’s width
P--------> perimeter of the border
we know that
x=5+y------> equation 1
P=2*[x+y]-----> P=2x+2y
P <=180 ft
(2x+2y) <= 180-------> equation 2
substitute the equation 1 in equation 2
2*[5+y]+2y <= 180
10+2y+2y <= 180
4y <= 180-10
4y <=170
y <=42.5 ft
so
the maximum value of the width is 42.5 ft
for y=42.5 ft
x=42.5+5------> x=47.5 ft
the answer is
the width of the border is less than or equal to 42.5 ft
X + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = -26
Even though it says negative, the same rules apply.
4x + 6 = -26
4x = -32
x = -8
-8, -7, -6, -5
Hope this helps!
