How do I write an algebraic equation for this word problem?

Mathematics

Doss [256]3 years ago

Hi.

Please note that I haven't done much algebra.

4 more = 4 +

Twice as many than the runner up means 2 times the amount they ate (a variable) = 2n

So far we have 4 + 2n

Since it's an equation, we are going to know what it equals. In the problem, we find out that it's 11. So the equation looks like this:

4 + 2n = 11

If this didn't work out, please let me know.

I believe n = 3.5

Do all perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes?
inna [77]

Not necessarily, the more correct definition is opposite reciprocal slopes.

The example used is how horizontal and vertical lines are parallel. Horizontal lines have a slope of 0, also written as 0/1. However, vertical lines have an undefined slope, which isn't necessarily negative. It has a slope of 1/0, which is undefined. In this case, the reciprocal isn't negative.

In all other cases (1 and -1, 2 and -1/2, etc.) yes, the perpendicular pairs are negative and reciprocal.

EMERGENCY A speeding ticket costs $80 plus $10 for each mile per hour over the speed limit the violator was traveling. How much
Basile [38]

Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

Fine calculated per mile = $10

Fine calculated for 'm' mile = 10 * m  = 10m

Cost paid by violator = 80 + 10m

m = 12 miles

Cost paid by the violator = 80 + 10*12

                                         = 80 + 120

                                         = $ 200
