An athlete us jumping. However, everytime she jumps she gets a bit more tired, and every jump goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump. Now, for her very first jump, she goes 1/2 of a foot. On her second jump, she goes 1/4 of a foot, and so on and so forth. How many jumps does it take to get to travel 1 foot
Answer:
She can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.
Step-by-step explanation:
In every jump, she goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump.
In the 1st jump, she covered a distance, d_1= \frac 1 2 foot.
The distance covered in the 2nd jump
[tex]d_2= \frac 12 \times d_1 = = \frac 12 \times \frac 12= \frac 1 4[/tex] (given)
So, the distanve covered in the 3rd jump
[tex]=\frac 12 \times d_2= \left(\frac 1 2\right )^2\times \frac 1 2= \left(\frac 1 2\right)^{3-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]
Similarly, the distance covered in the [tex]r^{th}[/tex] jump
[tex]=\left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]
Assuming she requires [tex]n[/tex] jumps to travel 1 foot of distance.
So, the sum of all the distances covered in n jumps = 1 foot
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \frac 1 4 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n-1}\times \frac 1 2=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \left(\frac 12 \right)^2 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r}+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n}=1[/tex]
This a geometric progression, G.P., of [tex]n[/tex] terms having common ration, r= 1/2 and the first term [tex]a_1= 1/2[/tex].
As sum of all the n terms of G.P [tex]=\frac {a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex],
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1/2((1/2)^n-1)}{1/2-1}=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow - \left(\left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1\right)=1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1=-1[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n=-1+1=0[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1}{2^n}=0[/tex]
This is only possible, mathematically, when [tex]n\rightarrow \infty[/tex], But in real life situation reaching infinity is not possible.
Hence, she can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.

The freshman spirit club took a trip to the state fair .There were 59 students and 6 chaperones, and the total admission cost for the group was 508$.Student tickets cost 2$ more than the chaperone tickets.Write an equation to represent the cost of a student ticket
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you determine the variables x and y as:
x: the value for student tickets
y: the value for chaperone tickets.
Knowing that student tickets cost $ 2 more than companion tickets, it is represented by the equation:
x= y +2
On the other hand, there were 59 students and 6 companions. And the total cost of admission for the group was $ 508, that is to say that what all the students and the companions have paid adds up to $ 508. Expressed by an equation:
59x + 6y = 508
Then the system of equations to solve and thus obtain the price of a student ticket and the price of a companion ticket is:
[tex]\left \{ {{x=y+2} \atop {59x+6y=508}} \right.[/tex]
Solving for x, the price of a student ticket:
Rearranging the first equation,
y = x - 2
Replacing in the second equation and solving for x:
59*x + 6*(x -2)=508
59*x + 6*x -12=508
65*x -12=508
65*x= 508 +12
65*x= 520
[tex]x=\frac{520}{65}[/tex]
x=8
The cost of a student ticket is 8$

Sam travel 20 miles in three hours. Sam walked part of the distance at a speed of 4 mph. Sam rode his bicycle for the remaining distance at a speed of 12 mph. How many hours did Sam spend walking? How many hours did Sam spend biking?
Answer:
Sam sokey 0.5 hours biking and 3.5 hours walking
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know the number of hours spent walking and biking
Mathematically; distance = speed * time
Let the number of hours spent walking be x and the number of hours spent biking be y
Mathematically;
x + y = 3 •••(i)
distance spent walking = 4 * x = 4x miles
distance spent biking = 12 * y = 12y miles
4x + 12y = 20
divide through by 2
2x + 6y = 10 ••••••(ii)
From i , x = 4-y
Substitute this into ii
2(4-y) + 6y = 10
8 - 2y + 6y = 10
8 + 4y = 10
4y = 10-8
4y = 2
y = 2/4 = 0.5 hours
The number of hours spent walking = 4-0.5 = 3.5 hours

4x+1=x-5 slove for x
Answer:
x = −2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 1 = x − 5
Subtract 1 from both sides
4x + 1 − 1 = x − 5 − 1
Simplify
4x = x − 6
Subtract x from both sides
4x −x = x − 6 − x
Simplify
3x = −6
Divide both sides by 3

a body of mass 10kg acted upon by a force of 40N for 0.5secs. Find the:(i)impulse on the body. (ii)final speed of the body. (iii)distance covered within the time interval.
Step-by-step explanation:
20n 20394848484848575
The impulse on the body is 20 kg-m/s, the final speed of the body is 2m/s, and the distance covered within the time interval is 0.5m.
What is Force?Force is the strength applied on an object with mass to change its state of motion.
The mass of the body is 10kg.
The force applied on the object is 40N.
The time for which the force is applied is 0.5 sec.
The impulse on the body is calculated by,
Impulse = Force * Time
Impulse = 40 * 0.5
Impulse = 20 kg-m/s
The final speed of the body is given by
v = u + at
Assuming the initial speed = 0
v = at
Acceleration = Force / mass
Acceleration = 40/10
a = 4 m/s²
v = 4 * 0.5
v = 2 m/s
The distance covered within the time interval is given by,
s = ut + (1/2) at²
s = (1/2) at²
s = (1/2) 4 * 0.5 *0.5
s = 0.5 m

José and Maris work for different car dealerships. José earns a monthly salary of $3,500 plus a 8% commission on sales. Maris earns a monthly salary of $3,900 plus a 6% commission on sales. Above what value of sales are José's monthly earnings more than those of Maris?
Answer: When sales are greater than 2000 then José's monthly earnings sre more than those of Maris.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= Total sales
For José, monthly salary = $3,500
Commission percentage = 8% =0.08
Monthly earnings= Monthly salary + (Commission percentage) x (Total sales)
Monthly earnings= 3500 +0.08 x
For Maris, monthly salary = $3,900
Commission percentage = 6%
Monthly earnings= 3900 +0.06 x
When José's monthly earnings > Maris's monthly earnings
then, 3500 +0.08 x > 3900 +0.06 x
Subtract 3500 from both sides, we get
0.08 x > 400+0.06x
Subtract 0.06x from both sides, we get
0.02x>400
Divide both sides b 0.02
x> 20000
When sales are greater than 2000 then José's monthly earnings sre more than those of Maris.

y varies directly as x. if x = 10 when y = 40, find x when y = 200.
Answer:
x = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition
x = 10 when y = 40, then
40 = 10k ( divide both sides by 4 )
4 = k
y = 4x ← equation of variation
When y = 200, then
200 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )
50 = x

What are rational numbers
Answer:
In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. Since q may be equal to 1, every integer is a rational number.
Any number that can be written as a fraction with integers is called a rational number . For example, 17 and −34 are rational numbers
