Be aware that arclength usually has a difficult function to integrate. Most integrable functions look like the above where a binomial is squared and adding the two terms will flip the sign of the binomial.

Answer:
Billy used 28 mins 30 sec to mow the lawn and Bobby used 43 mins 30 sec to now the lawn both within 72 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent Billy
let x+15 represent Bobby
x + x + 15 = 72
2x = 72 - 15
2x = 57
2x/2 = 57/2
x = 28.5 minutes = 28 minutes 30 seconds
Bobby = x + 15
= 28.5 + 15
= 43.5 minutes= 43 minutes 30 seconds
Go to the third pic for your answer. I got problem 4 wrong but it shows the correct answer.
The common ratio between terms is 3, so the sequence has general 
-th term
for 
. The term exceeds 7000 when
which means the first time 
exceeds 7000 occurs when 
. Indeed,
while the previous term would have been
