Answer:

The last answer choice: Phillip will lose (1/2) of his points in his next crash.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every crash, Phillips points will continue to reduce by (1/2) the amount that he currently has. That means after 1 crash, he will 5,000 points left. After 2 crashes, he will have 2,500 points left. After 3 crashes, he will have 1250 points left. After 4 crashes, he will have 625 points left, and so on like that.

Flying against the wind, a jet travels 2160 miles in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, same jet travels 6000 miles in 6 hours. What

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

The velocity of jet in still air is $860miles/hour$ and velocity of wind is $140miles/hour$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the rate of the jet in still air and y be the rate of the wind.

Given:

Velocity against wind, a jet travels 2160 miles in 3 hours.

Velocity against wind $=\frac{2160}{3} = 720 miles/hour$

Flying with the wind, same jet travels 6000 miles in 6 hours.

Flying with the wind $=\frac{6000}{6} = 1000 miles/hour$

As such its velocity against wind is $x-y$

and with wind is $x+y$ therefore

$x-y=720$ ------------(1)

$x+y=1000$ ---------------(2)

Adding equation 1 and 2.

$2x=1720$

$x=\frac{1720}{2}$

$x=860$

Put x value in equation 2

$860+y=1000$

$y=1000-860$

$y=140$

Hence velocity of jet in still air is $860miles/hour$ and velocity of wind is $140miles/hour$ .

In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5, the value of the previous term is represented by

den301095 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5

$a_n = a_{n-1}+5$

Suppose if a_5 is the nth term then previous term is a_4

To get the previous term we need to subtract 1 from the n

So a_n is the nth term

$a_{n-1}$ is the previous term

Here 5 represents the common difference between two terms

So value of previous term is represented by

$a_{n-1}$

Answer : $a_{n-1}$
