<u>Part (a)</u>
The variable y is the dependent variable and the variable x is the independent variable.
<u>Part (b)</u>
The cost of one ticket is $0.75. Therefore, the cost of 18 tickets will be:
dollars
Now, we know that Kendall spent her money only on ride tickets and fair admission and that she spent a total of $33.50.
Therefore, the price of the fair admission is: $33.50-$13.50=$20
If we use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets, the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission can be written as:
......Equation 1
<u>Part (c)</u>
The above equation is logical because, in general, the total cost of the rides will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought and that will be 0.75x. Now, even if one does not take any rides, that is when x=0, they still will have to pay for the fair admission, and thus their total cost, y=$20.
Likewise, any "additional" cost will depend upon the number of ride tickets bought as already suggested. Thus, the total cost will be the sum of the total ride ticket cost and the fixed fair admission cost. Thus, the above Equation 1 is the correct representative linear equation of the question given.
Answer. Option B. 0.8 cents.
Solution:
With a 5-pound box of detergent will wash 20 loads of laundry, then with a 15-pound box (5*3) of detergent will wash 20*3=60 loads of laundry, and you would pay $10.00.
To wash 60 loads of laundry with 5-pound box, you would need three 5-pound box, and you would pay $3.50*3=$10.50.
Then you would save in total $10.50-$10.00=$0.50
And per load, you would save: $0.50/60=$0.008=0.008*100 cents=0.8 cents

Answer:
23.24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c², where a and b are legs of the right triangle and c is the hypotenuse.
In this situation, the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle, and the distance from the base of the building is the long leg.
Plug in the ladder length as c and plug in the distance from the base of the building as a:
a² + b² = c²
(6²) + b² = (24)²
36 + b² = 576
b² = 540
b = 23.24
So, the ladder reaches approximately 23.24 feet up the wall
