In An arithmetic sequence will add or subtract the same thing each time to find the next term. In this case we start with 10 and need to get to 40 on the 6th term. This is a difference of 30 that needs to be divided by 5 open spaces. You are adding 6 each time.

10, 16, 22, 28, 34, 40, _,_,_,_, 70, _,_,_,_,100,_,_,_, 124.

Another way to do this would be to look at the 5th term and multiply it by 4 to get to the 20th term. 34 x 4 = 124.

Answer:124

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is Tn = a + (n-1)d

a is the first term.

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

a is 10

The sixth term T6 = 10 + (6-1)d = 40

T6 = 10 - 5d = 40

5d = 40 - 10

5d = 30

d = 6

To get the 20th term T20

T20 = 10 + (20-1)6

T20 = 10 + 19(6)

T20 = 10 + 114

T20 = 124

A 45 kg skydiver has a speed of 25 m/s at an altitude of 950 meters above the ground. Determine the
Montano1993 [528]

The kinetic energy possessed by the skydiver is 14, 062. 5 Joules

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy of an object is defined as the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

It is also described as the work that is required to accelerate a body of mass from rest to its given velocity.

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is expressed as;

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv²

Where;

  • m is the mass of the object
  • v is the velocity of the object

Now, substitute the values

Kinetic energy = 1/2 (45)(25)²

Find the square

Kinetic energy = 1/2 (45)(625)

Find the product

Kinetic energy = 1/2(28125)

Find the quotient

Kinetic energy = 14, 062. 5 Joules

Hence, the value is  14, 062. 5 Joules

Alexis drove 1200 miles in 30 h. What was her rate of travel in miles per hour?
Damm [24]

40 mph

First you have 1200/30. You are trying to get to 1 hour, so in order to get 30 to one, you must divide 30 by 30 and 1200 by thirty as well. You get 40 miles per hour.
