Answer:

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

Step-by-step explanation:

They are driving toward each other, in opposite directions.

So to find their speed of approximation, we add their speeds.

19 mph + 15 mph = 34 mph.

This means that each hour, they are 34 miles closer.

How long it takes for them to find each other if they are 50 miles apart?

1 hour - 34 miles

x hours - 50 miles

34x = 50

x = \frac{50}{34}

x = 1.47

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

Write a rule for a geometric sequence that has -6 as its first term and a common ratio of 2. What is the tenth term of this sequ
slega [8]
The general form of the geometric sequence is a_{n} = a_{1} (r) ^{n-1}, where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1.  Our formula then looks like this: a_{10} =-6(2) ^{10-1}.  Simplify it to  a_{10} =-6(2)^9.  Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072.  C is your answer.
