Answer:

89 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Rate(speed) × Time

D = R × T

T = 4 hours

One car's rate is 12 kilometers per hour less than the other's.

Hence:

First's car's rate = r × 4 = 4r

Second car's distance = (r + 12) × 4 = 4r + 48

4r + 4r + 48 = 760

8r + 48 = 760

8r = 760 - 48

8r = 712

r = 712/8

r = 89 km/hr

The rate of the slower car is 89 km/hr

\sum_{n=1}^{\infty } ((-1^n)/n)x^n<br><br> Find the interval of convergence.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

(-1,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate \lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{| a_{n+1}|}{| a_{n}|} = \frac{1}{R} where R is the radius of convergence.

\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{\frac{|(-1)^{n+1}|}{|n+1|}}{\frac{|(-1)^{n}|}{|n|}}

\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{\frac{1}{|n+1|}}{\frac{1}{|n|}}

\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{|n|}{|n+1|}

Applying LHopital rule we obtaing that the limit is 1. So 1=\frac{1}{R} then R = 1.

As the serie is the form (x+0)^{n} we center the interval in 0. So the interval is (0-1,0+1) = (-1,1). We don't include the extrem values -1 and 1 because in those values the serie diverges.
