Can someone give me a small lesson on nets and surface areas?? Thank you if you can. I really don’t understand.

Hi!

Here is the definition of a net from www.icoachmath.com:

“Net is a two-dimensional pattern of a three-dimensional figure that can be folded to form the figure. In other words, net is a flattened three-dimensional figure which can be turned into the solid by folding it.”

In the photo is an example of a net of a rectangular prism.

Surface area is the measure of the total area of the surface of a 3D object. For example, if I have a cube, the surface area would be the area of the outside of the cube.

Hope this helped,

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
