Answer:

Total number of miles Eli runs over the course of 12 days is 40.5 mi .

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum formula for airthmetic series is given by

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}[2a_{1}+(n-1)d]

Where a_{n} is the nth term , a_{1} is the first term and d is the common difference .

As given

Eli runs 2 miles on his first day of training for a road race.

The next day, he increases his distance run by 0.25 miles. The day after that, he increases his distance run by another 0.25 miles, and so on.

a_{1} =2

d = 0.25 miles

n = 12

Put all the values in the sum formula

S_{12} = \frac{12}{2}[2\times 2+(12-1)0.25]

S_{12} =6\times [4+11\times 0.25]

S_{12} =6\times [4+2.75]

S_{12} =6\times [6.75]

S_{12} =40.5\ mi

Therefore the total number of miles Eli runs over the course of 12 days is 40.5 mi .

A mountain climber starts a climb at an elevation of 453 feet above sea level. At his first rest stop he has climbed 162 feet, a
Alenkinab [10]

They started at 453, then climbed 162, so now they are at:

453 + 162 = 615 feet.

They then cllmb another 207 feet to get to:

615 + 207 = 822 feet.

They then descend ( climb down) 285 feet.

822 - 285 = 537 feet.

Now they need to get back tot he original 453,

so they have to descend:

537 - 453 = 84 more feet.

The answer is C.

Roscoe rides his bike at least 10 miles but not more than 30 miles. He rides at an average rate of 10.5 miles per hour. The amou
zheka24 [161]

Actually, the domain is the possible set of input values of a function that will make the function fit the specific criteria. In this case, the input value is m, where m is the number of miles that is travelled. The criteria is to travel at least 10 miles but not more than 30 miles, therefore the domain should be:

 

All real numbers from 10 to 30, inclusive

 

(should be real numbers not integer since any fractional number is included in the domain)

 

I cannot figure out why the choices are far from the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

i think so,

(5x-54)⁰=(3x+16)⁰

5x-3x=16+54

2x=70

x=35⁰

3x+16=3×35+16=121

5x-54=5×35-54=121

hope it helps
