Answer:

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let east be positive and west be negative.

The first team travels east at 20 miles per hour.

Speed of first team = 20 mph

The second team travels west at 25 mph

Speed of second team = -25 mph

Relative speed = 20- (-25) = 45 mph

Range of radio = 90 miles

We need to find how long will it be before they lose radio contact.

           Distance = Time x Speed

            90 = Time x 45

            Time = 2 hours

Their contact will end after 2 hours.

Which sequence could be described by the explicit definition: t_n=2^n+1t n = 2 n + 1
yuradex [85]

Answer:

2. 27

3. Option C. 3, 5, 9, 17, 33, ...

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The sequence is defined by the explicit function t_{n} = 2^{n}  - n

Therefore, the 5th term i.e. t_{5} of the sequence.

t_{5} = 2^{5}  - 5 = 32 - 5 = 27 (Answer)

3. The explicit definition is t_{n} = 2^{n}  + 1

Hence, t_{1} = 2^{1}  + 1 = 3

t_{2} = 2^{2}  + 1 = 5

t_{3} = 2^{3}  + 1 = 9

t_{4} = 2^{4}  + 1 = 17

Therefore, the option C is the right sequence. (Answer)
