1000-300 = 700 divided by 50... it’ll take 14 paychecks or possibly about half a year I believe?
First we will find the 11th term
an = a1 + (n-1) * d
a11 = 12 + (11 - 1) * 5
a11 = 12 + 10 * 5
a11 = 12 + 50
a11 = 62
now we use the sum formula...
Sn = (n (a1 + an)) / 2
S11 = (11 (12 + 62)) / 2
S11 = (11 (74)) / 2
S11 = 814/2
S11 = 407
The speed of the current in a river is 6 miles per hour
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Speed of boat in still water = 20 miles per hour
Time taken = 3 hours
Distance downstream = 78 miles
To find: Speed of current
<em><u>If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then: </u></em>
Speed downstream = (u + v) km/hr
Speed upstream = (u - v) km/hr
<em><u>Therefore, speed downstream is given as:</u></em>
We know that,
Speed downstream = (u + v)
26 = 20 + v
v = 26 - 20
v = 6 miles per hour
Thus speed of the current in a river is 6 miles per hour

Answer:
5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the front parts of the trains meet at point A. Since both are the same length and traveling the same speed, each will pass point A in time ...
time = distance/speed
time = (1/18 mi)/(40 mi/h) = (1/720 h) × (3600 s)/(1 h) = 5 s
That is, the rear part of each train will be at point A 5 seconds after the front part.
The rear parts will pass each other 5 seconds after the front parts meet.
Answer:the number of gallons of water left in the tub after it has drained for x minutes is 300 - 8x
Step-by-step explanation:
A hot tub that holds 300 gallons of water drains at a rate of 8 gallons.
Let x represent the number of minutes for which the hot tub has drained water.
If the hot tub drains 8 gallons of water per minute, it means that in x minutes, the number of gallons of water that the hot tub would have drained is 8x
Therefore, the number of gallons of water left in the tub after it has drained for x minutes would be
300 - 8x
