Answer:

$a_{n}$ = 39 - 10n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is

19 - 29 = 9 - 19 = - 10

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term ( expicit formula )

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 29 and d = - 10 , then

$a_{n}$ = 29 - 10(n - 1) = 29 - 10n + 10 = 39 - 10n

The circumference of the circle-shaped rug is 69.08 inches.

adelina 88 [10]

We can find the diameter by dividing the circumference by 3.14
d = 22

Thus, our radius is 11.
r = 11

Now, let's use the area formula ( $3.14 \cdot r^2$ ) to solve for the area.
a = $3.14 \cdot (11^2) = \boxed{379.94}$

Solve for V 6+2(4v-5)=-2(7v-4)+7v

klasskru [66]

6+2(4v-5)=-2(7v-4)+7v
6 + 8v - 10 = -14v + 8 +7v
8v - 4 = -7v + 8
15v = 12
v = 12/15
v = 4/5
