Notice that
13 - 9 = 4
17 - 13 = 4
so it's likely that each pair of consecutive terms in the sum differ by 4. This means the last term, 149, is equal to 9 plus some multiple of 4 :
149 = 9 + 4k
140 = 4k
k = 140/4
k = 35
This tells you there are 35 + 1 = 36 terms in the sum (since the first term is 9 plus 0 times 4, and the last term is 9 plus 35 times 4). Among the given options, only the first choice contains the same amount of terms.
Put another way, we have
but if we make the sum start at k = 1, we need to replace every instance of k with k - 1, and accordingly adjust the upper limit in the sum.
The question is an illustration of related rates.
The rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second
I added an attachment to illustrate the given parameters.
The representations on the attachment are:
---- the rate
First, we calculate the vertical distance (y) using tangent ratio
Substitute 100 for x
Differentiate both sides with respect to time (t)
Substitute values for the rates and
This gives
Divide both sides by 2
Hence, the rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second
