This question is incomplete. Can you maybe add more information?
The next number in the sequence is 36.
Starting from 1, the number increases by 3, 1 + 3 = 4. But the next number, the number it's being increased by increases by 2. 3 + 2 = 5, 4 + 5 = 9. And again, 5 + 2 = 7, 7 + 9 = 16. And again. 7 + 2 = 9, 16 + 9 = 25. Therefore, it is increased to + 11, and the next number is 36.
I hope this helped, and you have a great day!
In order to find b1 from your formula stated we need to do few calculations
A=hb1+hb2, as you wee I multiply h with both bases( b1 and b2)
I will subtract hb2 from both sides
hb1=A-hb2
now I will divide my new expression by h
b1=(A-hb2)/h
First we can find the perimeter of the given rectangle
P=2L+2W (L=length and W=width)
P=2*3+2*4
P=6+8
P=14
So now we want to come up with a different combination of numbers that would give up a perimeter of 14. We know that 14 is divisible by 2 so let's make out width 2. If we plug in 2 as the width and 14 as the perimeters, we can solve for length
14=2L+2*2
14=2L+4
10=2L (subtract 4 from both sides)
L=5
So the dimensions are 5 units and 2 units
Hope this helps!
