4) An arithmetic sequence has a 7th term of 54 and a 13th term of 94. Find the common difference

Answer:

20/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Every nth term takes the form of  a + n*d, where a is the first  term.

So 7th term = (54 = a + 7d), 13th term = (94 = a + 13d).

equate them both:

94 - 13d = 54 - 7d

40 = 6d

d = 40/6

<span>1. The two boats picked for the trip are the steamboat and the tall ship. Let us assume that we will take the steamboat going to the island, and then we will take the tall ship for the return trip. We will then relate the distances travelled by both ships to each other.

2. We know that the steamboat takes five hours to complete the trip. The tall ship takes more time, at ten hours to complete the trip. We do not have the exact speeds of the steamboat or of the tall ship, but we do know that the tall ship is 10 knots slower than the steamboat. We likewise do not know the exact distance travelled by either ship, but we do know that both travel the same distance. We want to find out how fast each boat travels. We expect the answers to be in knots, with a difference of 10.

3. We know that distance is equivalent to the product of speed of a boat multiplied by the time of travel. For the trip going to the island, we will use the steamboat. Let its speed be x knots (equivalent to x nautical miles per hour), and let the distance going to the island be d nautical miles. Given that the time takes is 5 hours, this means that d = 5x.

4. If we let x be the speed of the boat you are taking to the island (the steamboat), then we know that the speed of the other boat (the tall ship) is 10 knots less than the steamboat's. So the speed of the tall ship (for the return trip) is (x - 10) knots.

5. Similar to part 3: we will multiply speed by time to determine the distance from the island. From part 4, we have determined that the speed of the tall ship to be used in returning is (x - 10) knots. Meanwhile, the given in the problem says that the tall ship will take 10 hours to make the trip. Therefore the distance will be equal to d = 10(x - 10) = 10x - 100 nautical miles.

6. We can assume that the distance travelled going to the island is the same distance travelled coming back. Therefore, we can equate the formula for distance from part 3 for the steamboat, to the distance from part 5 for the tall ship.
5x = 10x - 100

7. Solving for x: 5x = 10x - 100
-5x = -100
x = 20
Since x is the speed of the steamboat, x = 20 means that the steamboat's speed is 20 knots.

8. We determined in part 4 that the speed of the second boat (in our case, the tall ship) is (x - 10) knots. Since we have calculated in part 7 that the steamboat travels at x = 20 knots, then the speed of the tall ship is (x - 10) = 20 - 10 = 10 knots.</span>

A paper recycling bin has the dimensions shown.use the expression s3 where s represents the length of a side to find the volume
ziro4ka [17]
I found a similar problem with its corresponding figure. It shows a recycling bin whose length is 1/2 meters, width is 1/2 meters, and height is 1/2 meters.

Based on the measure, the bin is a cube. Its volume formula is s³.

V = (1/2 m)³
V = 1/2 m * 1/2 m * 1/2 m
V = 1/8 m³

V = 0.5 m * 0.5m * 0.5m = 0.125 m³
0.125m³ =  1/8 m³

The volume of the paper recycling bin is 1/8 m³ or 0.125m³

Maggie bought 3/4 of a pound of bananas and 4 boxes of cereal for $10.11. If each box of cereal cost $2.40, what was the price o
beks73 [17]
If you had 4 boxes of cereal and each costs $2.40, the total cost would be $9.60 (2.40×4).

The total cost of the bananas and the cereal cost $10.11. To find how much the 3/4 of bananas cost, simply subtract $9.60 away from $10.11 (10.11-9.6), which gives you $0.51.

The question asks for 1 pound of bananas but you only have the cost of 3/4. So, divide your cost by 3 to give you the cost of 1/4. (0.51÷3), which gives you $0.17.

The last step is to multiply this answer by 4 because 4/4 will result in a whole, or in this case, one pound (0.17×4) and thus gives you the cost $0.68 for one pound of bananas.

(please correct me if I'm wrong, hope this helped c: )

The perimeter of a square is represented by the expression 32x - 12.8. Draw a square to represent this situation and label its s
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: The perimeter of a square is: 32x - 12.8

As we all know that, the formula to find the perimeter of a square is:

Sum of the 4 side = 4* length of the side  

=> the length of 1 side: The perimeter of a square  / 4

In this situation, we have length of 1 side side is:

(32x - 12.8) / 4

= 32/4x - 12.8/4

= 8x - 3.2

The 1st equivalent expressions for the perimeter: 4 *(8x - 3.2)

The 2nd equivalent expressions for the perimeter: (8x - 3.2) + (8x - 3.2)  + (8x - 3.2)  + (8x - 3.2)

The 3rd equivalent expressions for the perimeter: 2*(8x - 3.2) + 2*(8x - 3.2)

What is the distance between (3, 5.25) and (3, –8.75)? 6 units 8.25 units 11.75 units 14 units
evablogger [386]
By using distance formula :


\text{Distance formula,}  \bold{  \boxed{ Distance = \sqrt{( x_{2} -x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2} -   y_{1})^{2}) }}}





Given points = ( 3 , 5.25 ) and ( 3 , - 8.75 )


\bold{Taking \:  \:  \:  x_{1}=3 \:   \: , \: \:   x_{2}= 3  \:  \: , \:   \:  y_{1}= 5.25 \:   \: ,  \:  \: y_{2}= -8.75}




On applying formula, we get


Distance = \sqrt{ ( x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2} \\  \\  \\ Distance = \sqrt{ ( 3 - 3 )^{2} + ( - 8.75 - 5.25 )^{2}}  \\ \\ \\ Distance = \sqrt{ ( 0 )^{2}  + ( - 14)^{2}}  \\ \\ \\ Distance = \sqrt{ ( - 14 )^{2}} \\ \\ \\ Distance = \sqrt{ 14^{2}} \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  | \bold{ ( - 14 )^{2} = 14^{2}}  \\  \\  \\ Distance =  {14}^{2 \times  \frac{1}{2} }  \\  \\  \\  Distance =  {14}^{1}  \\  \\  \\  Distance = 14 \: units








Hence, Option D is correct.
