The perimeter of a triangle is 133 inches. If one side of the triangle is five more than the shortest side, and the longest side

is 14 more than the shortest side, find the lengths of the three sides?

133=x + (x+5) + (x+14)

133 = 3x+19

3x=114

x= 114/3 =38

5+38 =43

38+14 =52

check: 38 +43 +52 = 133

3 sides are : 38, 43 & 52

Will says that in the number 8,184, one 8 is 10 times as great as the other 8. Is he correct? Explain why or why not.

Vinil7 [7]

No he is not correct .
Break apart the number 8,184
You will get
8000 + 100 + 80 + 4

The numbers we are comparing are 8000 and 80

80 x 10 = 800

The number we are looking for is 8000

This makes the claim that one 8 is 10 times greater false as it is in fact 100 times as great.

Answer: $\bold{(A)\ a_n=500,000(1.1)^{n-1}}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

From the data provided, we know the sequence is {500,000; 550,000; 605,000; ... }. $So, a_1 = 500,000\ and\ r = \dfrac{550,000}{500,000}=1.1$

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is: $a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}$

So, the explicit rule for the sequence above is: $a_n=500,000(1.1)^{n-1}$
