The distance between two cities is 180km. The distance was covered by a car at the rate of 50km/h, by a bus 45km/h, by a truck a

t 40km/h, and by a bicycle at 25km/h. How lond did each take to travel the entire distance? Are speed and time directly proportional or inversely proportional? What is the constant of variation?

Answer:

The speed and time are directly proportional in that the higher the speed the lesser the time and vice versa.

The constant is the total distance which is 180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The distance between the two cities is 180km

1.The distance was covered by a car at the rate of 50km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/50

time= 3.6 hours

2.The distance was covered by a bus 45km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/45

time= 4 hours

3.The distance was covered by a bicycle at 25km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/25

time= 7.2 hours

$115 = l \times 2.5 \times 5.75$

$\huge \mathrm{Answer࿐}$

given :

$\longmapsto$ volume = 115 yd³

Dimensions are :

$2\frac{1}{2} yd$

$5\frac{3}{4} yd$

L

We know,

$\large \boxed{ \mathrm{volume = l \times b \times h}}$

$115 = 2\frac{1}{2} \times 5\frac{3}{4} \times l$

$l \times \dfrac{5}{2} \times \dfrac{23}{4} = 115$

$l \times \dfrac{115}{8} = 115$

$l = 115 \times \dfrac{8}{115}$

$l = 8 \: yd$

Therefore Length of the prism is 8 yards.

What is the nth term of the sequence -2 -8 -18 -32 -50

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

-2n²

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the image attached:
We see that the second differences (blue ones) are all equal so we conclude that this is a quadratic sequence.
The quadratic sequence has the form:
$T_{n} = an^{2} +bn +c$

To find the value of a we just divide second difference ( -4 ) by 2:

$a = \frac{-4}{2}= -2$

Now we have:

$T_{n}= -2n^{2} +bn+c$

Substitute $n_{1}$ and $n_{2}$ into the equation above:

$T_{1} = -2(1)^{2} +b(1) +c$

$T_{2} = -2(2)^{2} +b(2)+c$

Since $T_{1}$ = -2 and $T_{2}$ = -8 , after simplification we have:

$b +c =0$
$2b+c=0$

The solution of this system is:

b=0, c =0

The general term is :

$T_{n} = -2n^{2}$
