The altitude is the mean proportional between the left and right parts of the hyptenuse
20/m = m/8
m² = 20 · 8
m² = 160
m = √160
m = 4√10
Answer:
L = 6, w = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w = width of rectangle
Let L = length of rectangle
w = L - 4
Area of rectangle = Lw
L (L - 4) = 12
L^2 - 4L = 12
L^2 - 4L - 12 = 0
(L - 6)(L + 2) = 0
L - 6 = 0
L = 6 (the other option doesn't work because dimensions can't be negative)
w = L - 4
w = 6 - 4
w = 2
Double check
A = Lw
A = 6 x 2
A = 12
It matches so we are right.
1/2=5/10
1/5=2/10
1/2+1/5
=5/10+2/10
=7/10
So your answer is 7/10
Answer:
-3,1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
nth term = 18 - 3n
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term = a + (n - 1)d
a1 = 15
d = -3
nth term = a + (n - 1)d
= 15 + (n - 1)-3
= 15 + (-3n + 3)
= 15 - 3n + 3
= 18 - 3n
nth term = 18 - 3n
For instance, if you want to find the 10th term
nth term = 18 - 3n
10th term = 18 - 3(10)
= 18 - 30
= -12
10th term = -12
