Answer:
345 times 0.03 = 10.35 but we cant have 0.35 of a person so it is 10 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
n=-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4 on each side:
n/2 = -12+4
n/2 = -8
Multiply 2 on each side:
n=-16
Let the second car meets the first car after n hours.
Second car starts with 8km/h, After succeeding hours his speed increases by 0.5 km.
So, Distance travelled by second car = 8 + 8.5 + 9
..... 8+(n-1) 0.5.....(1)
eqn. (1) sum of n terms Of A.P with first term 8
and common difference 0.5.
Sum of all the terms in equation 1 is also equals to the distance travelled by the first car for n hours, i.e. 10n km .
Now, we have (n/2) {16+(n-1) 0.5} = 10n........(2)
From equation (2) we get, n= 9
Hence, Both the cars will meet after 9 hours.
Hope it helps!
