It will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> (time) to travel 1,171.1 miles (distance) at 0.013 meters per second (speed).

<h3>How are the hours determined?</h3>

The hours that it will take the snail to travel the distance is determined by first converting the miles into meters at 1 mile = 1,609.34 meters.

The speed per second is also converted into speed her hour.

The conversions use the mathematical operations of division and multiplication.

Time = distance/speed.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Total distance in miles = 1,171.1 miles

Total distance in meters = 1,884,698.07 meters (1,171.1 x 1609.34)

Speed = 0.013 meters per second

Speed in hours = 46.8 meters per hour (0.013 x 60 x 60)

The number of hours to cover the distance = Total Distance/Speed

= <u>40,271.33 hours </u>(1,884,698.07/46.8)

Thus, it will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> to cover a distance of 1,171.1 miles at a speed of 0.013 meters per second.

Write an explicit formula for an, the nth term of the sequence 112, -28, 7, ....
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a_n=112\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Geometric Sequences</u>

There are two basic types of sequences: arithmetic and geometric. The arithmetic sequences can be recognized because each term is found as the previous term plus a fixed number called the common difference.

In the geometric sequences, each term is found by multiplying (or dividing) the previous term by a fixed number, called the common ratio.

We are given the sequence:

112, -28, 7, ...

It's easy to find out this is a geometric sequence because the signs of the terms are alternating. If it was an arithmetic sequence, the third term should be negative like the second term.

Let's find the common ratio by dividing each term by the previous term:

\displaystyle r=\frac{-28}{112}=-\frac{1}{4}

Testing with the third term:

\displaystyle -28*-\frac{1}{4}=7

Now we're sure it's a geometric sequence with r=-1/4, we use the general equation for the nth term:

a_n=a_1*r^{n-1}

a_n=112\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{n-1}

Evaluate p2m−(np+r) if m=−32 , n=2 , p=−8 , and r=4
harkovskaia [24]
When you evaluate the equation you plug in the numbers or replace the variables with the numbers it’s giving you.
-8(2)(-32) - 2(-8) + 4
-16(-32) - 16 + 4
512 + 20
= 532
Hope this helps!
