Answer:
x=56
Step-by-step explanation:
I may be wrong but
That’s a pentagon so
5-2=3
180x3=540 ( total area of a pentagon)
89+99+72= 260
540-260=280
3+2=5
280/5=56
x=56
Answer: Choice A) $0.45
================================
Explanation:
Plug in d = 0 and you'll have A(d) = 0.45d+180 turn into A(0) = 180. This says that Terry is paid $180 even if he doesnt travel a single mile.
Now plug in d = 1. You should get A(1) = 180.45 as the result.
Subtract the results: 180.45 - 180 = 0.45
He has earned 45 cents or 0.45 dollars for traveling one mile
----------
A shortcut is to notice that the slope of the line is 0.45
It might help to view A(d) = 0.45d+180 as y = 0.45x+180. We see that the equation is in slope intercept form y = mx+b
m = slope = 0.45 tells us how much additional dollars Terry earns for each additional mile traveled
b = 180 = y intercept = starting amount of money Terry is paid, this amount does not change based on how many miles he travels.
If we write
where we see
in the equation and set the result equal to
, we get the result.
