Answer:

1.4 hour, or 1 hr 24 min

Step-by-step explanation:

The trains separate at the rate (80 + 90) mph.

Recall that distance = rate times time, or time = distance / rate.

                                            238 mi

Here, the elapsed time is  -------------- = 1.4 hr, or 1 hr 24 min

                                             170 mph

Solve the equation below for x. <br> 500 = 25e ^ (2x)
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

x = i π n + log(20)/2 for n element Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

500 = 25 e^(2 x)

500 = 25 e^(2 x) is equivalent to 25 e^(2 x) = 500:

25 e^(2 x) = 500

Divide both sides by 25:

e^(2 x) = 20

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

2 x = 2 i π n + log(20) for n element Z

Divide both sides by 2:

Answer: x = i π n + log(20)/2 for n element Z

-18,-13,-8,-3,....<br><br> Find the above sequential formula
zhuklara [117]

The first term (a) is - 18

You add 5 to get to the next term. Or you can solve it by taking any 2 consecutive terms and find their difference.

Formula

d = t4- t3

Givens

t4 = - 3

t3 = - 8

Solution 1

d = t4 - t3             Substitute

d = -3 -  ( - 8)        Remove the brackets

d = -3 + 8             Combine  

d = 5                    Difference

Remark

Find the general formula

tn = - a + (n - 1)d      Substitute

So term 20 =           Example    

t20 = -18 + (20 - 1)*5 Combine the inside of the brackets. Remove the brackets

t20 = - 18 + 19*5          Combine 19 and 5          

t20 = -18 + 95              "Subtract"

t20 = 77                        Answer
