Answer:

$\frac{-2-r}{-p+8}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

-px+r= -8x-2

-px+8x = -2-r

x(-p+8) = -2-r

x = $\frac{-2-r}{-p+8}$ .

The first T-shirt you buy costs $7, and every additional shirt costs only $5. Let f(n) be the total cost of n shirts. F is a seq

Zina [86]

Answer:

f(n) = 2 + 5n. This is an arithmetic sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) = 7

f(2) = 7 + 5

f(3) = 7 + 5 + 5 = 7 +10

f(4) = 7 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 7 + 15

In general,

f(n) = 7 + 5(n -1 )

= 7 + 5n - 5

= 2 + 5n

We have the sequence 7, 12, 17, 22, 27 …

This is an arithmetic sequence, because it is a sequence of numbers in which the <em>common difference</em> between consecutive terms is 5.

Explain why if a runner completes a 6.2â-mi race in 32 âmin, then he must have been running at exactly 11 âmi/hr at least twice

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Accelerating to top speed, deaccelerating to finish line.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the runner kept a constant speed of 11 mph for the whole duration of his run (32 minutes), the distance he would have covered is:

$d=11*\frac{32}{60}\\d= 5.87\ mi$

This means that, in order to run the full 6.2 miles, the runner needs to reach a speed over 11 mph. Assume he starts from rest, while accelerating the runner reaches, and the surpasses, the 11 mph mark. Since his speed at the finish line is zero, the runner has to deaccelerate from his current running speed (which should be higher than 11 mph), passing through 11 mph and reaching zero at the finish line.
