From the statement of the problem, we know that:

• a train starts at City A and travels 2,158 km to City B,

• then it travels 3,793 km from City B to City C.

The distance between City A and City C is equal to the sum of the distance from City A to City B, and the distance from City B to City C. So the distance between City A and City C is 2,158 km + 3,793 km = 5951 km.

Looking at the answer of Clay:

We see that he added 7 km to each of the distances, that's the reason why he found a different a wrong result.

Determine the radius of convergence of the following power series. Then test the endpoints to determine the interval of converge

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Radius of the convergence is R = $\frac{1}{21}$

and,

The Interval of convergence is $-\frac{1}{21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function : Σ(21x)^k

Now,

Using the ratio test, we have

R = $\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{21x^{k+1}}{21x^{k}}|$

R = $\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{21x^{k}\times21x^{1}}{21x^{k}}|$

R = $\lim_{n \to \infty} |21x^{1}|$

now,

for convergence R|x| < 1

Therefore,

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |21x^{1}|$ < 1

$-\frac{1}{21}$

and,

Radius of the convergence is R = $\frac{1}{21}$

and,

The Interval of convergence is $-\frac{1}{21}$

What dose this equal (8.5)x(-3)=a

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

-25.5

8x3=24

but we still have the .5 so we multiply that by 3 which equals to 1.5 add that to 24 which makes 25.5 and because only one of the numbers was negative it turns 25.5 into -25.5.

What is the distance between (1,-5) and (-3,6)

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sqrt{137}\approx11.7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

We have two points (1, -5) and (-3, 6). substitute:

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(6-(-5))^2}=\sqrt{(-4)^2+11^2}=\sqrt{16+121}=\sqrt{137}$

Helen walk 2 3/4 miles per day. Bill run's 10 miles every 4 days. In 4 days, who runs the longest distance

Gennadij [26K]

Helen runs the longest distance in 4 days.

Helen (In 4 days): 2.75 x 4 = 11

Bill (In 4 days): 10

11 (Helen) > 10 (Bill), so therefore Helen runs the longest distance in 4 days.
