Hello,

f(1)=120\\
 f(2)=-\frac{1}{2}*120=-60\\ 
 f(3)=-\frac{1}{2} *(-60)=30\\ 
 f(4)=-\frac{1}{2} *(30)=-15\\ 
 f(5)=-\frac{1}{2} *(-15)=\frac{15}{2}\\

The volume of the rectangular prism is 32 cubic feet more than the volume of the right triangular prism. Find the volume of each
Art [367]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of a rectangular prism be VR and that of right triangular prism be VT. If The volume of the rectangular prism is 32 cubic feet more than the volume of the right triangular prism, then VR = 32 + VT

Since VR = length * width and height

VR = 6*x*3

VR = 18x ft³

Also VT =  Length *width * Height/2

VT = (7 * x * 4)/2

VT = 28x/2

VT = 14xft³

Since VR = 32 + VT

18x = 32+(14x)

collect like terms

18x-14x = 32

4x = 32

divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 32/4

x = 8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 18*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 144ft³

Volume of the right triangular prism = 14x

Volume of the rectangular prism = 14*8

Volume of the rectangular prism = 112ft³

While Flinn was starting the fire, his friends were collecting firewood. Flinn has 5 sticks. If he puts 3 sticks in the fire eve
fomenos

Answer:

Time required to make a pile of 45 sticks next to their fire = 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of arithmetic progression.

First term = 5 - 3 + 7 = 9 sticks

Common difference = 7 - 3 = 4 sticks.

So the number of sticks next to their fire is increasing like this

        9, 13, 17, 21 .............

n^{th} term of AP = a + (n-1) d, we need to find n

  a + (n-1) d = 45

  9 + (n-1) x 4 = 45

  (n-1) x 4 = 36

   n - 1 = 9

    n = 10

Time required to make a pile of 45 sticks next to their fire = 10 minutes
