Answer: Number of miles he runs for 12 days is 40.5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of miles Eli run on his first day = 2 miles

Next day, he increases his distance run by 0.25 miles.

Number of miles Eli run on his second day = 2+0.25 = 2.25 miles

Number of miles Eli run on his third day = 2.25+0.25 = 2.5 miles

So, it becomes an arithmetic progression:

2,2.25,2.5,....

Number of days he runs for = 12 days

So, Total number of miles he runs over the course of 12 days is given by

S_{12}=\frac{12}{2}(2a+(n-1)d)\\\\S_{12}=\frac{12}{2}(2\times 2+(12-1)0.25)\\\\S_{12}=6(4+11\times 0.25)\\\\S_{12}=6(6.75)\\\\S_{12}=40.5\ miles

Hence, Number of miles he runs for 12 days is 40.5 miles.

Find a ⋅ b. a = <5, 2>, b = <4, 5>
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

  30

Step-by-step explanation:

For a = <xa, ya> and b = <xb, yb>, the dot product is the sum of products ...

  a·b = (xa)(xb) + (ya)(yb)

Substituting the given information, you have ...

  a·b = 5·4 + 2·5 = 20 + 10

  a·b = 30

_____

Some graphing calculators can do such math. There are also dot product calculators available on the Internet. If you have quite a few of these to calculate, you can put the appropriate formula into a spreadsheet.

A basketball with a radius of 24.1 cm rolls 8.0m in 11 seconds. what is the angular frequency of the ball?
Dominik [7]
The formula for angular frequency is:

ω = velocity/radius

Since we are given distance(8.0m) and time(11 seconds) , we can also express the formula as:

ω = distance/(radius)(time)

Substituting the given values:

8.0m/(0.241m)(11s)

Which would give us the answer of 3.03 seconds.

Hope this answer helps.
