Answer:

a_n = 31 - 3n\\\\a_{30}= 59

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Arithmetic sequence is:

28, 25, 22, 19, ...

a = 28, d = 25 - 28 = - 3,

nth term of an Arithmetic sequence is given as:

a_n = a + (n - 1) d\\

Plugging a = 28 & d = - 3 in the above equation, we find:

a_n = 28 + (n - 1) (-3)\\\\a_n = 28 - 3n +3\\\\\huge\purple {\boxed {a_n = 31 - 3n}} \\(This \:is \:the \:required \:equation) \\\\Plug \: n = 30, \: we \: find:\\\\a_{30}= 31 - 3 \times 30\\\\a_{30}= 31 - 90\\\\\huge\orange {\boxed {a_{30}= 59}} \\\\

On rainy days, Izzy goes from his house to the school by running 1.2 miles on West St, then makes a 90º turn and runs 0.5 miles
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) It will take Izzy 0.226 hours = 13.6 minutes = 13 minutes 36 seconds to run to school on dashed days.

b) Izzy runs 1.30 miles on dry days.

c) Izzy saves 3 minutes and 12 seconds cutting through the woods.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by a simpe rule of three problem.

a) On rainy days, she runs 1.2 + 0.5 = 1.7 miles.

The problem states that for rainy days, she runs 7.5 miles per hour. We know that in a hour, Izzy will run 7.5 miles. We want to know how long it takes for her to run 1.7 miles. So

1 hour - 7.5 miles

x hours - 1.7 miles

7.5x = 1.7

x = \frac{1.7}{7.5}

x = 0.226 hours

It will take Izzy 0.226 hours = 13.6 minutes = 13 minutes 36 seconds to run to school on dashed days.

b) Now we have a right triangle, where the sides are the 1.2 miles and the 0.5miles, and the path through the woods x is the hypotenuse.

So, we apply the pythagorean theorem.

x^{2} = (1.2)^{2} + (0.5)^{2}

x^{2} = 1.44 + 0.25

x^{2} = 1.69

x = 1.30

So, Izzy runs 1.30 miles on dry days.

c) The first step for this question is knowing how long it takes for Izzy to run 1.30 miles at 7.50 miles a hour. So:

1 hour - 7.50 miles

x hours = 1.30 miles

7.50x = 1.30

x = \frac{1.3}{7.5}

x = 0.173 hours

So, it takes Izzy 0.173 hours = 10.4 minutes = 10 minutes 24 seconds to run through the woods.

13' 36''

-10' 24''

3' 12''

Izzy saves 3 minutes and 12 seconds cutting through the woods.
