Answer:

They will be 5 miles apart in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the time it will take for the two ferries to be 5 miles apart

Mathematically; distance = speed * time

Let the number of hours be x

In x hours, the cat will have traveled 34 * x = 34x miles

In x hours, the Bird will have traveled 29 * x = 29x miles

So;

34x - 29x = 5

5x = 5

x = 5/5

x = 1 hour

Katy invests a total of $13,000 in two accounts paying 2% and 7% annual interest, respectively. How much was invested in each ac
kherson [118]

Answer:

2 % amount = 12000     7% amount = 1000 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2% amount

 then  13 000 - x  = 7% amount

.02x   + .07 (13000-x)  = 310

-.05x + 910 = 310

.05x = 600

x = 600/.05 = 12000      then the 7% amount is 1000

Find the 72nd term of the arithmetic sequence -27, -11, 5, ...
MAXImum [283]

Step-by-step explanation:

first identify the common difference

The first term which i will define by u⁰=-27

u¹=u⁰+(1)d where d is the common difference and u¹ is the second term

u¹=-27+d

-11=-27+d

d=27-11=16

The 72nd term would be u⁷¹ since we started from u⁰ as our first term:

Use the explicit relation given by:

u(n)=u⁰+(n)d

u(71)=-27+71(d)

u⁷¹=-27+71(16)

u⁷¹=-27+1136

u⁷¹=1109
