If you save three pennies on january 1, six pennies on january 2, nine pennies on january 3, and continue this pattern for one year (not a leap year), what will be the value of your entire savings, in dollars, at the end of that one year? express your answer as a decimal.

answer:   n ≤ -3 or n < -5

step-by-step explanation:

-5 + 2n ≥ -11

+5             +5

2n ≥ -6

2/2 ≤ -6/2

n ≤ -3

-6 - 10n > 44

+6           +6

-10n > 50

-10/-10 50/-10

n < -5

d. bc = 12 and ef = 16

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that δabc : δdef such that .

also, it is given that

so, from the options, we need that .

a.

b.

c.  

d.

as, we can see that only option d gives the same ratio as i.e. .

hence, the possible lengths are bc = 12 and ef = 16.
