Answer:

c = 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at our equation; - 4c - 9.6 + 5c = 0. Now we need to collect the like terms which are -4c and 5c.

- 4c - 9.6 + 5c = 0

5c - 4c - 9.6 = 0

We get: c - 9.6 = 0

Now we will add 9.6 on each side to see what c is equal to.

c - 9.6 = 0

+9.6 +9.6

c = 9.6

Yay! We got our answer! Nice job everyone!

A train leaves at 1314 and arrives at 1508. It travelled at an average speed of 105 km/h.

Paraphin [41]

Answer: The train traveled 199.5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the relationship:

Distance = Time*Speed

We know that the speed of the train was 105km/h

And we know that it leaves at 13:14, and arrives at 15:08.

Then the total amount of time that the train was traveling is:

T = (15 hours and 8 mins) - (13 hours and 14 mins)

= (15 - 13) hours and (8 - 14) mins

= 2 hours and (-6) mins.

We know that one hour has 60 minutes, then this is equal to:

T = 1 hour and 54 minutes.

But because the speed is kilometers per hour, we need to rewrite the 54 minutes in hours.

This can be done as follows:

1 hour = 60 minutes.

Then: 54 minutes = (54/60) hours = 0.9 hours.

Then:

1 hour and 54 minutes = 1.9 hours.

Now we know the speed and the time, then the distance can be calculated as:

Distance = speed*time = 105km/h*(1.9 h) = 199.5 km

The train traveled 199.5 km

How many terms of the arithmetic sequence {1,22,43,64,85,…} will give a sum of 2332? Show all steps including the formulas used

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

There's a slight problem with your question, but we'll get to that...

Consecutive terms of the sequence are separated by a fixed difference of 21 (22 = 1 + 21, 43 = 22 + 21, 64 = 43 + 21, and so on), so the n-th term of the sequence, a (n), is given recursively by

• a (1) = 1

• a (n) = a (n - 1) + 21 … … … for n > 1

We can find the explicit rule for the sequence by iterative substitution:

a (2) = a (1) + 21

a (3) = a (2) + 21 = (a (1) + 21) + 21 = a (1) + 2×21

a (4) = a (3) + 21 = (a (1) + 2×21) + 21 = a (1) + 3×21

and so on, with the general pattern

a (n) = a (1) + 21 (n - 1) = 21n - 20

Now, we're told that the sum of some number N of terms in this sequence is 2332. In other words, the N-th partial sum of the sequence is

a (1) + a (2) + a (3) + … + a (N - 1) + a (N) = 2332

or more compactly,

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N a(n) = 2332$

It's important to note that N must be some positive integer.

Replace a (n) by the explicit rule:

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N (21n-20) = 2332$

Expand the sum on the left as

$\displaystyle 21 \sum_{n=1}^N n-20\sum_{n=1}^N1 = 2332$

and recall the formulas,

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^n1=\underbrace{1+1+\cdots+1}_{n\text{ times}}=n$

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk=1+2+3+\cdots+n=\frac{n(n+1)}2$

So the sum of the first N terms of a (n) is such that

21 × N (N + 1)/2 - 20N = 2332

Solve for N :

21 (N ² + N) - 40N = 4664

21 N ² - 19 N - 4664 = 0

Now for the problem I mentioned at the start: this polynomial has no rational roots, and instead

N = (19 ± √392,137)/42 ≈ -14.45 or 15.36

so there is no positive integer N for which the first N terms of the sum add up to 2332.

Erin created a scale drawing for a garden that will be 10 ft by 5 ft. She plans to include a section in the garden for herbs, wh

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The dimensions of the herb garden in the scale drawing are 2.4 in. by 6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The dimensions of the garden in the actual are 10 ft by 5 ft

The dimensions of the garden on the scale drawing are 12 in. by 6 in

step 1

Find the scale factor

To find the scale factor divide the corresponding side on the scale drawing by the corresponding side in the actual

$\frac{12}{10}\ \frac{in}{ft}$

simplify

$1.2\ \frac{in}{ft}$

That means

1.2 inches in the drawing represent 1 foot in the actual

step 2

Find out the dimensions of the herb garden on the scale drawing

we know that

The dimensions of the herb garden in the actual are 2 ft by 5 ft

Multiply by the scale factor

$2\ ft=2(1.2)=2.4\ in$

$5\ ft=5(1.2)=6\ in$

therefore

The dimensions of the herb garden in the scale drawing are 2.4 in. by 6 in
