The sides of an equilateral triangle measure 16 inches. The midpoints of the sides of the triangle are joined to form another equilateral triangle with sides that are half the length of the outer triangle. This process is continued until three triangles are inscribed in the first triangle. The sum of the perimeters of all four triangles is

  90 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the inscribed triangle is 1/2 that of the enclosing triangle. So, the total of perimeters is ...

  (3·16 in)(1 +1/2 +1/4 +1/8) = (48 in)(15/8) = 90 inches

3

step-by-step explanation:

constant of proportionality = 3 and the equation is c = 3p.

step-by-step explanation:

c = kp   where c = amount of caffeine in mg., p = oz of pepsi and k is the constant of proportionality.

substituting the values given:

24 = 8k

k = 3.

the same value of k will be obtained if we substitute the other given values.
