The average speed is the distance divided by the time.

Total distance:
12.8 miles + 17.2 miles = 30 miles

Total time:
noon - 9:00 a.m. = 3 hours
6:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. = 5 hours
Total time = 3 hours + 5 hours = 8 hours

average speed = 30 miles / 8 hours = 3.75 miles per hour

Evaluate each finite series for the specified number of terms. 1+2+4+...;n=5
zaharov [31]

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

The series are given as geometric series because these terms have common ratio and not common difference.

Our common ratio is 2 because:

1*2 = 2

2*2 = 4

The summation formula for geometric series (r ≠ 1) is:

\displaystyle \large{S_n=\frac{a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}} or \displaystyle \large{S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}}

You may use either one of these formulas but I’ll use the first formula.

We are also given that n = 5, meaning we are adding up 5 terms in the series, substitute n = 5 in along with r = 2 and first term = 1.

\displaystyle \large{S_5=\frac{1(2^5-1)}{2-1}}\\\displaystyle \large{S_5=\frac{2^5-1}{1}}\\\displaystyle \large{S_5=2^5-1}\\\displaystyle \large{S_5=32-1}\\\displaystyle \large{S_5=31}

Therefore, the solution is 31.

Summary

If the sequence has common ratio then the sequence or series is classified as geometric sequence/series.

Common Ratio can be found by either multiplying terms with common ratio to get the exact next sequence which can be expressed as \displaystyle \large{a_{n-1} \cdot r = a_n} meaning “previous term times ratio = next term” or you can also get the next term to divide with previous term which can be expressed as:

\displaystyle \large{r=\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}}

Once knowing which sequence or series is it, apply an appropriate formula for the series. For geometric series, apply the following three formulas:

\displaystyle \large{S_n=\frac{a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}}\\\displaystyle \large{S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}}

Above should be applied for series that have common ratio not equal to 1.

\displaystyle \large{S_n=a_1 \cdot n}

Above should be applied for series that have common ratio exactly equal to 1.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Since O is circumscribed about quadrilateral DEFG, the value of x is equal to: D. 68°.

<h3>What is a supplementary angle?</h3>

A supplementary angle can be defined as two (2) angles or arc whose sum is always equal to 180 degrees. Mathematically, a supplementary angle can be calculated as follows:

Q + R = 180°.

In Geometry, the opposite angles of any cyclic quadrilateral that is inscribed inside a circle always form a supplementary angle. Thus, we would determine the value of x by using the mathematical expression above:

x + 112° = 180°

x = 180° - 112°

x = 68°
