Answer:

  • -13

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The fifth term:</u>

  • a_5=a+4d = 11

<u>The 10th term:</u>

  • a_{10}=a+9d=41

<u>Subtract side-by-side and find d:</u>

  • 9d - 4d = 41 - 11
  • 5d = 30
  • d = 6

<u>Find the first term:</u>

  • a = 11 - 4*6
  • a = 11 - 24
  • a = - 13

<em><u>The common difference d is </u></em>

  • (41–11) / (10–5) = 6.

<em><u>The first term is</u></em>

  • 11 - 6(5–1) = -13.

<em>so , the first term is -13 </em>

Jada was using square stickers with a side length of 3/434 inch to decorate the spine of a photo album. The spine is 10 1/21012
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of spine = 10\dfrac12 inches  = \dfrac{21}{2} inches

Length of each sticker = \dfrac34 inch

If she laid the stickers side by side without gaps or overlaps, the number of stickers she use to cover the length of the spine = \text{(Length of spine)}\div (\text{Length of each sticker})

=\dfrac{21}{2}\div\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2}\times\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{7\times2}{1}=14

The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.

????!! Someone please explain this
oee [108]

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost to cover one pair of shoes.

Cost to cover one pair of shoes = surface area of the shoe box × cost per square inch

= 2(LW + LH + HW) × 0.02

L = 14 in.

W = 8 in.

H = 4 in.

Plug in the values

Cost to cover one pair of shoes = 2(14*8 + 14*4 + 4*8) × 0.02

= 2(112 + 56 + 32) × 0.02

= 2(200) × 0.02

= 400 × 0.02 = 8

Cost to cover one pair of shoes = $8

Cost to cover 3 pairs of shoes = 3*8 = $24
