Answer:

65 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative and positive numbers can be expressed as how far away they are from zero.

40 is 40 units away from zero. Elevator 1 is 40 units from 0.

-25 is 25 units away from zero. Elevator 2 is 25 units from 0.

To find the distance, we'll add their distances from 0.

40 + 25 = 65

They are 65 units apart. In your problem you specify feet, so they are 50 ft apart.

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

A: 114, B: 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be weight of Train A, B be weight of Train B. Since A is heavier than B by 30 tons, A = B + 30. Since A + B = 198, you can substitute for A to get (B+30) + B = 198. Then simplify so 2B = 168 and B = 84.

Then plug B into A = B+30 to get A = 114.

Write the first five terms of a sequence. Don't make your sequence too simple. Write both an explicit formula and a recursive fo
Marina CMI [18]

Let the first five terms of a sequence be, 4,8,12,20,24

Ok, let me explain the meaning of term explicit and Recursive formula.

Explicit formula ,is the general formula to find any  term of the sequence.

And, Recursive formula, is the method by which, we can find the nth term of the sequence if (n-1)th term of the sequence is known.

So,the explicit formula for the sequence is,

y = 4 n, where , n is any natural number.

And the recursive formula is .

y = 4 (n-1), with the help of (n-1)th term we can find nth term.

First term =4=4 × 1

Second term =8 =4 × 2

Third term =12=4×3

Fourth term =16 =4 × 4

.....................

...........................

.................................

(n-1) th term =4 × (n-1)

nth term =4 × n

Applying the simple procedure by looking at the first , second and the way the next term goes , the general and recursive formula is obtained.

As, you said you don't want simpler sequence

Consider the first five terms of the sequence, 0, 3,8,15, 24.

Explicit formula =n² + 2 n

Recursive formula=(n-1)²+2(n-1)

If,you will look at the sequence, it is neither Arithmetic nor geometric .

First term =0=0²+0×0

Second term =3=1+2=1²+2 × 1

Third term =8=4+4=2²+2×2

Fourth term =15=9+6=3²+2×3

Fifth term =24=16 +8=4²+2×4

So, Explicit formula= n²+ 2 n, where n is a whole number.

HOPE THIS HELPS!
