Arithmetic sqaure: a + (n-1) * d

<em>               </em><u><em>where "a" is the first term, "d" is the common difference</em></u>

Here given:

a = 10 gallons

d = 5.5 gallons

  • nth term: 10 + (n-1) * 5.5

<u>Solve for first 5 terms</u>:

10 + (1-1) * 5.5 = 10

10 + (2-1) * 5.5 = 15.5

10 + (3-1) * 5.5 = 21

10 + (4-1) * 5.5 = 26.5

10 + (5-1) * 5.5 = 32

first five terms: 10, 15.5, 21, 26.5, 32

  • First term=a=10
  • common difference a=5.5

General formula

  • a_n=a+(n-1)d
  • a_n=10+(n-1)5.5

So

  • a_1=10
  • a_2=10+5.5=15.5
  • a_3=10+11=21
  • a_4=10+16.5=26.5
  • a_5=10+22=32
  • a_6=10+27.5=37.5

Solve the inequality.<br> 5x - 7 &lt; 8x + 8<br> The solution set is x |
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

- 5 < x

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate the variable: x

5x - 7 < 8x + 8

Subtract 5x from both sides

5x -  5x -7 < 8x -5x + 8

- 7 < 3x + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides

- 7 -8 < 3x + 8 -8

-15< 3x

Divide both sides by 3

- 15/3< 3x/3

- 5 < x

The driver of a car traveling at 54ft/sec suddenly applies the brakes. The position of the car is s=54t-3t^2, t seconds afyer th
castortr0y [4]
  <span>s = 60t - 3t^2 
v = ds/dt = 60 - 6t 

when it comes to rest, v = 0, 
so t = 10 sec 

now distance travelled = time taken x average velocity 
= 10 x (60 + 0)/2 
= 300 ft
