350 divided by 7 is 50 so the man can run 50 feet in one minute

Lucia knows the fourth term in a sequence is 55 and the ninth term in the same sequence is 90. Explain how she can find the comm

Andreyy89

Using the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression.
an = a + (n - 1)d
a(4) = a + 3d = 55
a(9) = a + 8d = 90
a(9) - a(4) => 5d = 35
d = 35/5 = 7.
From a(4): a = 55 - 3d = 55 - 3(7) = 55 - 21 = 34

a(2) = a + d = 34 + 7 = 41.

Joe’s annual income has been increasing each year by the same dollar amount the first year his income was 19,500. 8 years later

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The question is either poorly constructed or it is a trick question. We do not know "In what year was his income 30,300" because the years correlating to his income are not disclosed. Even assuming the question was meant to be posed as "how many years later was his income 30,300" it is still flawed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To arrive at Joe's annual income increase, first subtract 19,500 from 27,900 to get 8400, which is his overall increase over the 8 years. Now divide 8400 by 8. You will get 1050. Beginning with his income of 27,900, add 1,050 to each successive income amount and you will get the following progression:

27,900, 28,950, 30,000, 31,050, 32,100, 33,150, 34,200, 35,250, 36,300.

Therefore, two years after his income was 27,900 it would be 30,000 and 6 years after that it would be 36,300. It would never be 30,300.

A book is on sale for 30% off. The sale price of the book is $14. What is the original price of the book

Yuki888 [10]

Since $14 is the price after a 30% discount then $14 is 70% of the original price.

$14/70=x/100 (100% would be the original price)

1400=70x or 1400/70 = $20!

You can double check the work by taking 30% off the $20 (10% would be $2, 30% would then be $6) 20-6=14!

AB=2y+1, BC=y+1,CD=7x-3,DA=3x what is x and y

sattari [20]

I attached the picture associated with this question.

Answer:
x = 2
y = 5

Explanation:
ABCD is a parallelogram. This means that each two opposite sides are equal.
This means that:
1- AB = CD
2y + 1 = 7x - 3 ...........> equation I
2- AD = BC
3x = y + 1
This can be rewritten as:
y = 3x - 1............> equation II

Substitute with equation II in equation I and solve for x as follows:
2y + 1 = 7x - 3 ...........> equation I
2(3x - 1) + 1 = 7x - 3
6x - 2 + 1 = 7x - 3
6x - 1 = 7x - 3
7x - 6x = -1 + 3
x = 2

Substitute with x in equation I to get y as follows:
y = 3x - 1
y = 3(2) - 1
y = 6 - 1
y = 5

Hope this helps :)
