Expected speed: 400 m in 50 seconds 
Therefore, speed in m/sec = 8 m/sec 
Given: 1 mile =1609 meters 
1 meter = 1/1609 miles 
 1 hour = 60 sec x 60 sec =3600 seconds 
 1 second = 1/3600 hour 
 To convert meters to miles, we should multiply it by 1/1609
 To convert seconds to hour, we should multiply it by 1/3600 
 Therefore, 8 m/sec = 8 x (1/1609) Ă· (1/3600) 
 = (8 x 3600)/1609
  =17.9 miles / hr

What is the nth term of quadratic sequence 4 7 12 19 28
Anni [7]
We find the first differences between terms:
7-4=3; 12-7=5; 19-12=7; 28-19=9.
Since these are different, this is not linear.
We now find the second differences:
5-3=2; 7-5=2; 9-7=2. Then:

Since these are the same, this sequence is quadratic.
We use (1/2a)n², where a is the second difference:
(1/2*2)n²=1n².

We now use the term number of each term for n:
4 is the 1st term; 1*1²=1.
7 is the 2nd term; 1*2²=4.
12 is the 3rd term; 1*3²=9.
19 is the 4th term; 1*4²=16.
28 is the 5th term: 1*5²=25.

Now we find the difference between the actual terms of the sequence and the numbers we just found:

4-1=3; 7-4=3; 12-9=3; 19-16=3; 28-25=3.

Since this is constant, the sequence is in the form (1/2a)n²+d;
in our case, 1n²+d, and since d=3, 1n²+3.
The correct answer is n²+3

A rectangular prism is 7 centimeters long, 5 centimeters wide, and 4 centimeters tall. Which values are the areas of cross secti
VladimirAG [237]
Cross section is the area you make when you make a cut across a shape. In this case, the cut must be parallel to the base. Hence, the cut shape would be same to that of the base. The base's dimensions are 7 cm long x 5 cm wide. Thus, the cross section area is 35 square centimeters.
