Two particles are projected simultaneously towards each other from opposite ends of a straight horizontal tube. One particle travels 97 cm in the 1st 2 seconds, 93 cm in next 2 seconds , 89 cm in another next 2 seconds, etc. The other particle travels 49 cm in the 1st 2 seconds, 47 cm in the next 2 seconds , 45 cm in another next 2 seconds, etc. Find how long it takes for the particles to meet and hence, determine the distances travelled by each particle.

Answers

Answer 1

This shows that it will take the particle 23 secs to meet.

The distance travelled by each particle is 50cm

If two particles are projected simultaneously towards each other from opposite ends of a straight horizontal tube,

The first particle distances are 97cm, 93cm, 89cm... every 2secs

This form an arithmetic sequence and the nth term is expressed as:

Tn = a  + (n - 1)d

a is the first term = 97

d is the common difference = 4

Substitute

Tn = 97+(n - 1)(4)

Tn = 97 + 4n -4

Tn  = 4n  + 93

Similarly for the distances 49 cm, 47 cm, 45cm .....

This also forms an arithmetic sequence and the nth term is expressed as:

Tn = a  + (n - 1)d

a is the first term = 49

d is the common difference = 2

Substitute

Tn = 49+(n - 1)(2)

Tn = 49 + 2n -2

Tn  = 2n  + 47

For the particles to meet, this means that 4n  + 93 = 2n + 47

4n - 2n = 47 - 93

2n = -46

n = -23

This shows that it will take the particle 23 secs to meet.

To get the distance travelled by each particle

Tn  = 4n  + 93

T2 = 4(2) + 93

T2 = 101

For the other sequence;

Tn  = 2n  + 47

T2  = 2(2)  + 47

T2 = 51

Taking the difference;

D = 101 - 51 = 50cm

Hence the distance travelled by each particle is 50cm

Answer:

I do lol

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

why would you wanna do someone's homework on Math and English?

Step-by-step explanation:

they wouldn't learn anything if they make you do their homework, besides what's the point of the homework if they don't learn anything? I know homework's are hard, but they give it for you to understand more of the lesson.

and you will also make yourself tired doing someone's homework what about your responsibilities?

It'll be only beneficial for you but not for them yeah you'll get money but its best if you let them do their homework. I mean homework's aren't that bad.

They just think they can't do it cause their lazy, and they think they wouldn't know the answer. Besides they can't just lay around all day because they paid you for doing their homework, they won't even know if your scamming them.

{-13,-2,9,20,31,…} which term in this sequence is 306

Answers

Given :-

-13,-2,9,20,31 . . . . .

To find :-

which term in this sequence is 306 .

Solution :-

Common difference ,

d = 31 - 20 d = 11

As we know that ,

Tⁿ = a + (n-1)d 306 = -13 + (n-1)11306+13 = (n-1)11319/11 = n-129 = n -1 n = 30

Answer:

30th

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is

- 2 - (- 13) = 9 - (- 2) = 20 - 9 = 31 - 20 = 11

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 13 and d = 11 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - 13 + 11(n - 1) = - 13 + 11n - 11 = 11n - 24 ← equate to 306

11n - 24 = 306 ( add 24 to both sides )

11n = 330 ( divide both sides by 11 )

n = 30

The 30th term is 306

So, "Compare the following rational numbers," its asking which of them is greater, or if there equal to each other.

So for 3.25 and 3 1/2

3 1/2 is greater

3.25 < 3 1/2 (so it should look like this when the symbol on that side)

and for -4.5 and -4.05

-4.05 is greater.

-4.5 < -4.05  (so the symbol is also on that side.)

Explanation:

Plug in x = 0 to find that

[tex]f(x) = 4*3^x\\\\f(0) = 4*3^0\\\\f(0) = 4*1\\\\f(0) = 4\\\\[/tex]

This shows that the y intercept is (0,4).

Of the four answer choices, only the bottom right corner has this y intercept. Note that the curve goes uphill when moving to the right. This function is increasing which matches with f(x) being an increasing function. In other words, f(x) represents exponential growth.

Justin's average speed from his parents' house: x+20=60 mph

Let the average speed be x +20  

Then average speed from his parents' x

And the distance is S=96

Then we know :

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{S}{x+20} +\frac{S}{x} =4 \\\\\\ \frac{96}{x+20} +\frac{96}{x}=4 \ |\div 4 \\\\\\ 24\bigg(\frac{1}{x+20} +\frac{1}{x} \bigg) =1 \\\\\\ 24\cdot \frac{x+x+20}{(x+20)x} =1 \ |\cdot (x+20)x \ \ \\\\\\48x+480=x^2+20x \\\\ x^2-28x-480=0 \\\\ \rm D=28^2+4\cdot 480=2704 =52^2 \\\\ \boxed{x_1=\frac{28+52}{2} =40} \\\\x_2=\frac{28-52}{2} =-12 \ \ \varnothing[/tex]
