First, lets subtract the amount he has after the transaction and the amount he had before the transaction.

249 - 18 = 231

Second, divide by the amount of books Dan bought.

231 / 7 = $33 per book.

Best of Luck!

6. Find the angle between the hands of a clock at 8:35

12345 [234]

Answer:

47.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The minute hand moves 6 degrees per minute. The hour hand moves 0.5 degrees per minute. At 8:35 the minute hand will be at the 210 degree position and the hour hand will be at the 257.5 degree position. 257.5 - 210 = 47.5 degrees between them.

a bird is flying to the right when a gust of wind causes the bird to accelerate leftward at 0.5m/s2 for 3s

natta225 [31]

Answer:

4 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

A bird is flying to the right when a gust of wind causes the bird to accelerate leftward at 0.5 m/s^2 for 3 s. After the wind stops, the bird is flying to the right with a velocity of 2.5 m/s.

Assuming the acceleration from the wind is constant, what was the initial velocity of the bird before the gust of wind?

Let say Initial Velocity of Bird = U m/s

Final Velocity of Bird V = 2.5 m/s

acceleration a = -0.5 m/s² ( as opposite to the fly direction)

Time T= 3 sec

Applying formula

V = U + aT

=> 2.5 = U + (-0.5)3

=> 2.5 = U -1.5

=> U = 4 m/s

the initial velocity of the bird before the gust of wind = 4 m/s

I need help with this problem from the calculus portion on my ACT prep guide

Given a series, the ratio test implies finding the following limit:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=r$

If r<1 then the series converges, if r>1 the series diverges and if r=1 the test is inconclusive and we can't assure if the series converges or diverges. So let's see the terms in this limit:

$\begin{gathered} a_n=\frac{2^n}{n5^{n+1}} \\ a_{n+1}=\frac{2^{n+1}}{(n+1)5^{n+2}} \end{gathered}$

Then the limit is:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{n5^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{2^{n+1}}{\mleft(n+1\mright)5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert$

We can simplify the expressions inside the absolute value:

$\begin{gathered} \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\rvert \end{gathered}$

Since none of the terms inside the absolute value can be negative we can write this with out it:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}$

Now let's re-writte n/(n+1):

$\frac{n}{n+1}=\frac{n}{n\cdot(1+\frac{1}{n})}=\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}$

Then the limit we have to find is:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}=\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}$

Note that the limit of 1/n when n tends to infinite is 0 so we get:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{n}}=\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{1+0}=\frac{2}{5}=0.4$

So from the test ratio r=0.4 and the series converges. Then the answer is the second option.
