Which expression uses the associtive property to make it easier to evaluate 8 (1/4 x 3/5)

Mathematics

3 0

The value of the expression 8 (1/4 * 3/5) is  6/5

<h3>How to evaluate the expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

8 (1/4 * 3/5)

The associative property states that:

a * (b * c) = (a * b) * c

Using the above expression, we have:

8 (1/4 * 3/5) =  8 * 1/4 * 3/5

Evaluate the product

8 (1/4 * 3/5) =  2 * 3/5

This gives

8 (1/4 * 3/5) =  6/5

Hence, the value of the expression 8 (1/4 * 3/5) is  6/5

A taxi charges a base fee plus $0.75/km.
Naily [24]

a) The rate of change in this situation is 0.75 dollars/km

b) The equation for the cost of hiring a taxi in terms of length of the

trip is y = 0.75 x + b

c) The initial value represents in this situation is $1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • A taxi charges a base fee plus $0.75/km.
  • A 10-km trip costs $8.70

∵ A rate of change is a rate that describes how one quantity

  changes in relation to another quantity

∵ The unit cost of a taxi is 0.75 dollars for each 1 kilometer

∴ The rate of change = 0.75 dollars/km

a) The rate of change in this situation is 0.75 dollars/km

Assume that the cost of hiring a taxi is $y for length of a trip x km

and a base fee of $b

∵ The length of the trip = x km

∵ The cost per km = $0.75

∵ The base fee = $b

∵ The cost of hiring a taxi = $y

- Write an equation for the the cost of hiring a taxi

∴ y = 0.75 x + b

b) The equation for the cost of hiring a taxi in terms of length

of the trip is y = 0.75 x + b

∵ The length of the trip is 10 km

∴ x = 10

∵ The cost of the hiring a taxi is $8.70

∴ y = 8.70

- Substitute these values in the equation of part (b)

∵ y = 0.75 x + b

∴ 8.70 = 0.75(10) + b

∴ 8.70 = 7.5 + b

- Subtract 7.5 from both sides

∴ 1.2 = b

∵ b is the base fee

∴ b is the initial value

∴ The initial value = $1.2

c) The initial value represents in this situation is $1.2
