let t = time (hrs) that they are 50 mi apart

Use pythag here; a^2 + b^2 = c^2; dist = speed * time

(30t)^2 (40t)^2 = 50^2

900t^2 + 1600t^2 = 2500

It's obvious that t = 1 hr

Express 3/5 as a decimal
lana66690 [7]

Answer:0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the denominator (5) and the numerator (3) by 20. Both sides multiplied equals 60 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator. After the conversions to a decimal, your answer should be 0.60 since 60/100=0.60.

Enter the equations of the asymptotes for the function f(x).<br><br> f(x)= 3/x−7 + 2
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

x = 7, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume it is 3/(x-7) + 2.

When x = 7, there is an asymptote because it is undefined.

When y = 2, there is also one, because 3/(x-7) is never 0.

These are the only ones.

Given An = 5a(n-1) where a1= 2. What are the first 4 terms
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

2, 10, 50, 250

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula with a₁ = 2 , then

a₂ = 5a₁ = 5 × 2 = 10

a₃ = 5a₂ = 5 × 10 = 50

a₄ = 5a₃ = 5 × 50 = 250

The first 4 terms are 2, 10, 50, 250
