Answer:

The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Distance travel by car A = 175 miles

The Distance travel by car B = 125 miles

The Time taken by both car A and B is same = T hours

Let The speed of car B = S mile per hour

So, The speed of car A = ( S + 20 ) mile per hour

Now, Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

So , For Car A ,

T = \frac{175}{(S + 20 )}

For Car B ,

T = \frac{125}{(S}

So, \frac{175}{(S + 20 )}  = \frac{125}{(S}

Or, 175 × S = 125 × ( S + 20 )

Or, 175 S - 125 S = 125 × 20

Or, 50 S = 2500

∴  S = \frac{2500}{(50}

I.e S = 50 mph

And S + 20 = 50 + 20 = 70 mph

The speed of car A = 70 mph

The speed of car B = 50 mph

Hence The speed of car B is 50 mile per hour  Answer

PLEASE HELP!!<br><br> what is the explicit formula for this sequence -7, -4, -1, 2, 5
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

-7, -4, -1, 2, 5

The difference between two consecutive terms is same, therefore the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The first term of the given AP is -7 and the common difference is

-4-(-7)=-4+7=3

The explicit formula for an AP is

a_n=a+(n-1)d

Where, a is first term, d is common difference and n is number of terms.

Substitute a=-7 and d=3 in the above equation.

a_n=-7+(n-1)3

a_n=-7+3n-3

a_n=-10+3n

Therefore the explicit formula for the given expression is a_n=-10+3n.
