<h2><u>Part A</u>: He started with
4 miles. </h2>
<u>Explanation Part A</u>: 51.664 = (x((1.2⁷)-1)) / 0.2
<h2>
<u>Part B</u>: The equation is
51.664 = (x(1.2⁷)-1)/0.2</h2>
<u>Explanation</u>: n = 7 and on day 7 he traveled 51.664 so Sn = 51.664.
We get the second part of the equation because each day is increased by 20% so we have r = (1.2x) / x = 1.2
So our top half will be x multiplied by ((1.2)⁷-1) because it's the 7th day and we are increasing by 1.2x - 1.
Our bottom half is 1.2 - 1 which equals 0.2
<h2><u>Part C</u> :
103.83 miles</h2>
<u>Explanation: </u> We now have x which is 4 so we plug x into the equation above and remove the 51.664. We also change the 1.2⁷ to 1.2¹⁰ because it's the 10th day not the 7th.
Our equation now looks like (4(1.2¹⁰)-1) / 0.2 which is equal to 103.83 miles.
The answer to solve these problems is that the full circle is 360 degrees, the way to find the answer is to have to equal sides that equal 360 degrees. That means one half of 360 degrees is 180 degrees. Hope this helps.
Here is how you find the answer.
Do remember that the term Bisect means to cut it in half.
So here it goes.
<span>5x = 3x + 10
5x - 3x = 10
2x = 10
x = 5
Then, substitute the values, so 5*5 or 3*5+10
Then, the answer for each smaller angle is 25.
</span>Remember bisect? so 25 x 2 so the final answer is 50.
Hope this is the answer that you are looking for. Thanks for posting your question!
