Jim Panzee got in a taxi that charges a $10 flat fee plus $3 per mile traveled. Write an equation that shows the relationship be

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

the total is $25 for a 5 mile ride.

the total is $40 for a 10 mile ride.

Step-by-step explanation:

x*3+y= total

5*3=$15

$15+$10=$25

10*3=$30

$30+$10=$40

Lines k and n intersect on the y-axis

avanturin [10]

a) The equation of line k is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

b) The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of a line, in slope-intercept formula, is given by:

$y = mx + b$

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Item a:

Line k intersects line m with an angle of 109º, thus:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

In which $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the slopes of k and m.

Line k goes through points (-3,-1) and (5,2), thus, it's slope is:

$m_1 = \frac{2 - (-1)}{5 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{8}$

The tangent of 109 degrees is $\tan{109^{\circ}} = -\frac{29}{10}$
Thus, the slope of line m is found solving the following equation:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

$-\frac{29}{10} = \frac{m_2 - \frac{3}{8}}{1 + \frac{3}{8}m_2}$

$m_2 - \frac{3}{8} = -\frac{29}{10} - \frac{87}{80}m_2$

$m_2 + \frac{87}{80}m_2 = -\frac{29}{10} + \frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{167m_2}{80} = \frac{-202}{80}$

$m_2 = -\frac{202}{167}$

Thus:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

It goes through point (-2,6), that is, when $x = -2, y = 6$ , and this is used to find b.

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

$6 = -\frac{202}{167}(-2) + b$

$b = 6 - \frac{404}{167}$

$b = \frac{6(167)-404}{167}$

$b = \frac{598}{167}$

Thus. the equation of line k, in slope-intercept formula, is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

Item b:

Lines j and k intersect at an angle of 90º, thus they are perpendicular, which means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Thus, the slope of line j is:

$-\frac{202}{167}m = -1$

$m = \frac{167}{202}$

Then

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + b$

Also goes through point (-2,6), thus:

$6 = \frac{167}{202}(-2) + b$

$b = \frac{(2)167 + 202(6)}{202}$

$b = \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)

Step 2: Solve for x

(Parenthesis) Distribute: 3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
Combine like terms: 3x + 2 = 2x + 10
{Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: x + 2 = 10
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides: x = 8

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x: 3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
(Parenthesis) Subtract/Add: 3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
Multiply: 18 + 8 = 26
Add: 26 = 26

Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.

∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.
