The explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, a term a(19) = 135 and common difference d = 15

We have to find the explicit formula.

Now, we know that, a(n) = a + (n – 1)d where a(n) is nth term, a is first term, d is common difference,

So, for a(19)  

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow a(19)=a+(19-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 135=a+18 \times 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=135-270} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=-135}\end{array}

Now, we know that, an explicit formula is an expression for finding the nth term,  

So, in our problem, expression for finding nth term is a + (n – 1)d  

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow-135+(n-1) 15} \\\\ {\rightarrow-135+15 n-15} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15 n-150} \\\\ {\rightarrow 15(n-10)}\end{array}

Hence, the explicit formula is a(n) = 15(n – 10).

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

ferris wheel travel approx = 434.72 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

wheel rotates = 9pi/8 radians

total height of the ferris wheel =  246 ft

solution

we can say here that height of the ferris wheel is same as the diameter of the wheel

and wheel is circular in shape

so we get here first radius of wheel that is

radius = half of diameter    ..........................1

put here value and we get

radius = 0.5 × 246

radius = 123 ft

and

wheel travel distance = length of arc by a angle of wheel rotates

so here length of arc will be

arc length = radius × wheel rotates angle   .....................2

put here value and we get

arc length  = 123 × \frac{9\pi }{8}

arc length = 434.7178 ft

so ferris wheel travel approx = 434.72 ft
