Using proportions, it is found that:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.
---------------------------
- Peter is walking at a rate of x km/h.
- MJ is biking 6 km/h faster than Peter, thus 6 + x km/h.
- Opposite directions, thus, their distance increases at a rate of (6 + 2x) km each hour, as
.
6 + 2x km each hour, 18 km after 1.5 hours, thus, the rule of three is:
1h - (6 + 2x) km
1.5h - 18 km
Applying cross multiplication:






Then:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a₁ = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AP, where:
=============
<h3>Solution</h3>
aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d
- a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
- a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22
8a₈ = 12a₁₂
- 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
- 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
- 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
- 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
- a₁ = 38
