From the beginning we know we are dealing with two different rates. Distance is equal to (Speed X Time). We have two different speeds though. We will call the min speed = x and the max speed = y.  With those two ideas in place we can make two equations for both Tony and Rae.
Tony:
2x+3.5y=355
Rae:
2x+3y=320
Now you can solve the equations by subtracting Rae's equation from Tony's

.5y=35 solve for y and you get 70
Now plug that y value back into either equation and you can solve for x. I'll use Rae's distance: 
2x+3(70)=320
x=55

What is the term of a 7-term geometric series if the first term is -11 the last term is -45,056 and the common ratio is -4
shutvik [7]
I assume you mean to ask how to find the sum of the seven terms?

You have

a_2=ra_1
a_3=ra_2=r^2a_1
a_4=ra_3=r^3a_1
...
a_7=ra_6=r^6a_1

So the sum is

a_1+ra_1+r^2a_1+\cdots+r^6a_1=a_1(1+r+r^2+\cdots+r^6)=a_1\times\dfrac{1-r^7}{1-r}

You know that a_1=-11 and r=-4, so the sum is equal to

-4\times\dfrac{1-(-4)^7}{1-(-4)}=-13108
