Given that:

The consecutive sides of a rhombus are 3x-6 and x+14 .

We know that

all sides are equal in a rhombus

⇛ 3x-6 = x+14

⇛ 3x-x = 14+6

⇛ 2x = 20

⇛ x = 20/2

⇛ x = 10

Now,

3x-6 = 3(10)-6 = 30-6 = 24

Length of the side = 24 units

Now,

Perimeter of a rhombus = 4×side

⇛ P = 4×24 units

P = 96 units

<u>Answer</u>:-The perimeter of the given rhombus is 96 units.

Two adjacent sides are given by 3x-6 and x+14.
Now, because its a rhombus all sides of it are
equal.
By the problem,
3x-6=X+14
2x=20
X=10
Perimeter of rhombus- 4a (a=side of rhombus)
4*10=40 units

What is a quick and easy way to remember explicit and recursive formulas?
Oliga [24]
I always found derivation to be helpful in remembering. Since this question is tagged as at the middle school level, I assume you've only learned about arithmetic and geometric sequences.

First, remember what these names mean. An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which consecutive terms are increased by a fixed amount; in other words, it is an additive sequence. If a_n is the nth term in the sequence, then the next term a_{n+1} is a fixed constant (the common difference d) added to the previous term. As a recursive formula, that's

a_{n+1}=a_n+d

This is the part that's probably easier for you to remember. The explicit formula is easily derived from this definition. Since a_{n+1}=a_n+d, this means that a_n=a_{n-1}+d, so you plug this into the recursive formula and end up with 

a_{n+1}=(a_{n-1}+d)+d=a_{n-1}+2d

You can continue in this pattern, since every term in the sequence follows this rule:

a_{n+1}=a_{n-1}+2d
a_{n+1}=(a_{n-2}+d)+2d
a_{n+1}=a_{n-2}+3d
a_{n+1}=(a_{n-3}+d)+3d
a_{n+1}=a_{n-3}+4d

and so on. You start to notice a pattern: the subscript of the earlier term in the sequence (on the right side) and the coefficient of the common difference always add up to n+1. You have, for example, (n-2)+3=n+1 in the third equation above.

Continuing this pattern, you can write the formula in terms of a known number in the sequence, typically the first one a_1. In order for the pattern mentioned above to hold, you would end up with

a_{n+1}=a_1+nd

or, shifting the index by one so that the formula gives the nth term explicitly,

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Now, geometric sequences behave similarly, but instead of changing additively, the terms of the sequence are scaled or changed multiplicatively. In other words, there is some fixed common ratio r between terms that scales the next term in the sequence relative to the previous one. As a recursive formula,

a_{n+1}=ra_n

Well, since a_n is just the term after a_{n-1} scaled by r, you can write

a_{n+1}=r(ra_{n-1})=r^2a_{n-1}

Doing this again and again, you'll see a similar pattern emerge:

a_{n+1}=r^2a_{n-1}
a_{n+1}=r^2(ra_{n-2})
a_{n+1}=r^3a_{n-2}
a_{n+1}=r^3(ra_{n-3})
a_{n+1}=r^4a_{n-3}

and so on. Notice that the subscript and the exponent of the common ratio both add up to n+1. For instance, in the third equation, 3+(n-2)=n+1. Extrapolating from this, you can write the explicit rule in terms of the first number in the sequence:

a_{n+1}=r^na_1

or, to give the formula for a_n explicitly,

a_n=r^{n-1}a_1

6x + 3 (2x) - 7 - 2³ Please include th steps to solving it.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

24x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this together with a step-by-step explanation!

First we need to make sure we remember that there are appropriate ways on how to solve these. LIKE PEMDAS.

6x + 3 (2x) - 7 - 2³

Let's multiply the 3 and 2x together.

6x + 6x - 7 - 2³

Now let's do the exponent

6x + 6x - 7 - 8

Now let's add everything together! But remember only common variables can be added together.

24x - 15 is the answer.

You can no longer break anything down.

I really hope this helped you!
