<h3>Answer:  50</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

We're given f(1) = 3.2 which says the first term of the sequence is 3.2

To find the second term, we use the other equation, which is the recursive equation. Plug in x = 1 to get...

f(x+1) = 2.5*f(x)

f(1+1) = 2.5*f(1)

f(2) = 2.5*f(1)

f(2) = 2.5*3.2

f(2) = 8

The second term is 8. We multiplied the previous term (3.2) by the factor 2.5 to get this second term.

The third term is handled pretty much in a similar fashion

third term = 2.5*(second term)

third term = 2.5*8

third term = 20

Lastly, the fourth term f(4) is...

f(x+1) = 2.5*f(x)

f(3+1) = 2.5*f(3)

f(4) = 2.5*f(3)

f(4) = 2.5*20

f(4) = 50

The fourth term is 50.

The first four terms are: 3.2, 8, 20, 50

Find the lateral area of this pyramid whose base is a regular hexagon with a side length of 3cm and whose slant height is 12cm.
juin [17]

Answer:

108 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral surface area of a pyramid is given as

LSA= 1/2×perimeter of the base×slant height

base is hexagon with side 3 cm , therefore, perimeter of the base

=6×3=18 cm

slant height = 12 cm

thus, LSA = 1/2×18×12 = 108 cm^2
