Answer:
Width = 16 m
Length = 4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of rectangular is 64m² the length of the pool is 12 m less that the width . The situation can be represented by the equation x
Area of a rectangle = Length × Width
L = W - 12
Hence:
64 = (W - 12) × W
64 = W² - 12W
W² - 12W - 64 = 0
Factor using
(W + 4)(W - 16) = 0
Width = 16m
Length = W - 12
Length = 16 m - 12 m
= 4 m
As we know these two lines mean | | a modulus sign. The modulus symbol is sometimes used in conjunction with inequalities. A modulus sign in simple words just ignores the sign and gives us the absolute value.
For example in this case the modulus gives us 4 x 2 - 3. As you can see the modulus sign has ignored the original negative signs with the numbers.
So after evaluating the equation the answer comes out to be 8 - 3 which is equal to 5.
Sn=sum of the n terms of the geometric sequence.
a= the first term
r=the common ratio
n=numbers of terms.
Sn=a[(1-r^n)/(1-r)]
In this case:
a=-3
r=a₂/a₁=15/-3=-5
n=9
S₉=-3[(1-(-5)⁹) / (1-(-5))=
S₉=-3(1+1953125)/6)=
S₉=-3(1953126/6)=
S₉=-3(325521)
S₉=-976563
Answer: A. -976563
