A 3-mi cab ride costs $7.30. A 8-mi cab ride costs $15.30. Find a linear equation that models a relationship between cost c and

distance d.
Select one:
a. c = 1.91d + 2.50
b. d = 1.60c + 8.00
c. c = 1.60d + 2.50
d. c = 2.43d + 8.00

Since, A 3-mi cab ride costs $7.30 and a 8-mi cab ride costs $15.30.

In the information given above, we can consider these as the coordinate points on the axes.

Let (c, d) be the coordinates , where 'c' represents the total cost and 'd' represents the distance traveled.

Cost is on the 'y' axis and distance is on the 'x' axis.

Now, let the first point on the coordinate axes be (3, 7.30) and the other point is given by (8, 15.30).

For the given points say (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) , equation of line is given by:

(y-y_1)= m(x-x_1) where m(slope) is given by \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.

The equation of line for the given points is:

(c-7.30) = (\frac{15.30-7.30}{8-3})(d-3)

(c-7.30) = 1.6(d-3)

c-7.30 = 1.6d-4.8

c-1.6d=2.5

So, c = 1.6d+2.5 is the required linear equation that models a relationship between cost c and distance d.

If the probability of a student spending time reading is 0.10, the probability of spending time watching TV is 0.90 and the prob
joja [24]

Answer:

The probability is 0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the probability of a student spending time reading or watching TV.

To calculate this, we simply use a direct mathematical formula.

P( of spending time reading or watching tv) = P(of spending time reading) + P(spending time watching Tv) - P( of spending time watching Tv and reading)

From the question, we identify the probabilities as follows;

P(spending time reading) = 0.1

P(of spending time watching Tv) = 0.9

P(of spending time watching Tv and reading) = 0.03

Now, plugging these values, we have

P( of spending time reading or watching Tv) = 0.9 + 0.1 -0.03

= 1-0.03 = 0.97

Write the number 33×10^-3 in scientific notation​
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

33×10^-3 is equivalent to 33/1000, or 0.033.

This, in turn, is equivalent to 3.3×10^(-2) (which is in scientific notation)
