The distance from his home to his work place is 118.125 miles

<h3>How to find the distance from his home to his work place?</h3>

He drove from home to work at an average speed of 45 mph. Therefore,

speed = 45 mph

let

time = x

speed = distance / time

distance = 45x

His return trip home took 45 minutes longer because he could only drive at 35 mph. Therefore,

45 minutes = 0.75 hours

distance = 35(x + 0.75)

distance = 35x + 26.25

Therefore,

45x = 35x + 26.25

45x - 35x = 26.25

10x = 26.25

x = 26.25 / 10

x = 2.625

Therefore,

distance = 45(2.625) = 118.125 miles

Benito wrote the equations shown about the figure. Explain Benito’s errors.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

  • Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).

Explanation:

Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).

The congruency symbol (≅) means that the elements (segments, angles or figures in general) have the same measure, i.e. they have equal lengths for the segments or equal measure for the angles.

For instance, it is an error saying that the segment AB is equal to the segment BC because, as you clearly see in the picture, they are not same; they have the same length but they are joining different points, that makes them different in essence, although they have the same length. They would be equal only if they are the same figure.

In mathematics, you must not say that two different segments or two different angles are equal but they are congruent, which means that their lengths are equal. The use of equal is reserved for numbers and variables, not for figures like segment, points, angles, polygons.

Trent hikes up a hill at 4 km/h. He hikes back down at 6 km/h. The hiking trip took 3 hours. How much time did it take Trent to
erastovalidia [21]

t = time to hike up the hill

3-t is the time to hike down the hill

 so 4t = 6(3-t)

4t = 18-6t

10t = 18

t = 18/10 = 1.8 hours to hike up the hill

1.8 hours = 1 hour 48 minutes

1. Find a formula for the general term of the sequence, assuming the pattern continues and that the first term corresponds to ,
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

  1. an = (-1)^(n-1)·(n+2)!/3^n

  2. the sequence diverges

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you're concerned with the sequence ...

  {2, -24/9, 120/27, -720/81, ...}

1. This is neither arithmetic nor geometric. Ratios of terms are -4/3, -5/3, -6/3.

The alternating signs mean one factor of the general term is (-1)^(n-1). The divisors of 3 in the term ratios indicate 3^-n is another factor. The increasing multipliers suggest that a factorial is involved.

If we rewrite the sequence factoring out (-1)^(n-1)/3^n, we have ...

  {6, 24, 120, 720, ...}

corresponding to 3!, 4!, 5!, 6!. This lets us conclude the remaining factor is (n+1)!.

The general term is ...

  \boxed{a_n=\dfrac{(-1)^{n-1}(n+2)!}{3^n}}

__

2. The magnitude of the factorial quickly outstrips the magnitude of the exponential denominator, so the terms keep getting larger and larger.

The sequence diverges.

__

3. No series are provided.
