Slope intercept form : y = mx + b
4x - 5y < 1
-5y < -4x + 1
y > 4/5x - 1/5 <== slope intercept form
y - x > 3
y > x + 3 <== slope intercept form
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Charging by the quarter mile is for purpose of making that particular taxi service seem cheaper than the others when they post a per mile charge. If this taxi company is charging .50 per 1/4 mile, they are charging $2 per mile. So we will base our equation on the per mile charge, not the per quarter-mile charge. If x is the number of mile driven (our uknown), and we have a flat fee of $2.50 regardless of how many miles we are driven, the cost function in terms of miles is
C(x) = 2x + 2.50
If we are driven 5 miles, then
C(5) = 2(5) + 2.50 so
C(5) = 10 + 2.50 and
C(5) = $12.50
It would cost $12.50 to be driven 5 miles
First we have to get the LCM of 8 and 6, which is 24. so the fractions with be Maria 9/24 and Nina 12/24. therefore Nina are more
If you use the distributive property on (x+y)/3, the result should be:
(x/3) + (y/3)
-10/8 and + 15/8. Those should work.
