Answer: The girls walked 1\dfrac38 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Distance from home to school = \dfrac{6}{10} mile

Distance from school to store = \dfrac38 mile

Distance from store to home = \dfrac25 miles

Total distance = \dfrac6{10}+\dfrac38+\dfrac25

= \dfrac{6\times4+3\times5+2\times8}{40}   [L.C.M.(10,8,5)=40]

= \dfrac{24+15+16}{40}

= \dfrac{55}{40}

= \dfrac{11}{8}=1\dfrac38  miles

Hence, The girls walked 1\dfrac38 miles.

Can someone please help me.
Art [367]

I will give you everything I can do:

11)

Lets say Car A travels at x mph. That means Car B travels at x+2 mph.

Both of them are traveling towards each others, so we can say the total speed is 2x+2.

Now i takes 3 hrs and we know the distance.

Since R*T=D

Then 3(2x+2)=270

So 2x+2=90

2x=88

x=44

12)

To find perpendicular we want to find the opposite reciprocal of the original slope. Therefore the slope is 3/2.

Now we must find the equation of the line with the given variable.

First find b.

5=3/2*4+b

b = -1

So the equation of this line is:

y=3/2x-1

13) All work will be shown below.

6-3(-2-4x)=2(3(x-4)+7)

6+6+12x=2(3x-12+7)

12+12x=2(3x-5)

12+12x=6x-10

6x=-2

x = -1/3

14)

First we must find the amount each train traveled.

The speed of F train(Freight train)=x

The speed of P train(passenger train)=x+6

Their combined speed is 2x+6

It takes 2 hrs to cover 100 miles

So 2(2x+6)=100

2x+6=50

2x=44

x=22

So the freight train covered 44 miles and the passenger train covered 56 miles.

To find average speed you must do Total Distance/Total Time.

44/2 and 56/2

Which are 22 and 28.

The average speed of F train is 22 mph and average speed of P train is 28 mph.

15) Again opposite reciprocal.

3/5 -> -5/3

Work:

-4=-3*-5/3+b

-4=5+b

b=-9

y = -5/3x-9

16)

F=kx-kx0

First kx0 = 0

So F=kx

So x=F/k

64, –48, 36, –27, ...<br><br> Which formula can be used to describe the sequence?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

\boxed{a_n \:  =  \: 64 \:  \times  \: ( -  \frac{3}{4} ) ^{n \:  -  \: 1} }

Step-by-step explanation:

  • We first compute the ratio of this geometric sequence.

r \:  =  \:  \frac{ - 48}{64}  \\  \\ r   \:  =  \:  \frac{36}{ - 48}  \\  \\  r \:  =  \:  \frac{ - 27}{36}

  • We simplify the fractions:

r \:  =  \:   -  \frac{3 }{4}   \\  \\ r   \:  =  \:   -  \frac{3 }{4}  \\  \\  r \:  =  \:    -  \frac{3 }{4}

  • We deduce that it is the common ratio because it is the same between each pair.

r \:  =  \:  -  \frac{3 }{4}

  • We use the first term and the common ratio to describe the equation:

a_1 \:  =  \: 64; \: r \:  =  \:  -  \frac{3 }{4}

<h3>We apply the data in this formula:</h3>

\boxed{a_n \:  =  \: a_1 \:   \times  \:  {r}^{ n \:  -  \: 1} }

_______________________

<h3>We apply:</h3>

\boxed {\bold{a_n \:  =  \: 64 \:   \times  \:  {( -  \frac{3}{4} )}^{ n \:  -  \: 1} }}

<u>Data</u>: The unknown "n" is the term you want
