Aiden will receive $1.43 from a $5 bill.

If the state tax is 5.5%, you can use the equation below to solve for the total cost, <em>t</em>.

<em>t</em> = 1.055 (2 × 1.09 + 1.20)
<em>t</em> = 1.055 (2.18 + 1.20)
<em /><em>t </em>= 1.055 (3.38)
<em>t </em>= 3.5659

You can round 3.5659 to $3.57. Finally, you subtract 3.57 from 5 to find the amount of change Aiden will receive, <em>c</em><em />.

<em>c </em>= 5 - 3.57
<em>c </em>= 1.43

F(x)=6x-18 sub in f(x/3), f(x)/3
arlik [135]

These are two separate problems: in the first we will have to substitute in a new value for x into the original equation and in the second we will manipulate the preexisting equation for f(x).

To begin, we will sub in f(x/3). To do this, we will substitute each variable x in the equation (in this case there is only one) with x/3, and then simplify the resulting equation.

f(x) = 6x - 18

f(x/3) = 6(x/3) - 18

To simplify, we should distribute the 6 on the right side of the equation.

f(x/3) = 6x/3 - 18

Now, we can divide the first term on the right side to finalize our simplification.

f(x/3) = 2x -18

Secondly, we are asked to find f(x)/3. To do this, we will take our original value for f(x), and then simplify divide that entire function by 3.

f(x) = 6x - 18

f(x)/3 = (6x-18)/3

This means that we must divide each term of the binomial by 3, so we are really computing

f(x)/3 = 6x/3 - 18/3

We can simplify by dividing both of the terms.

f(x)/3 = 2x - 6

Therefore, your answer is that f(x/3) = 2x - 18, but f(x)/3 = 2x - 6. It is important to recognize that these are two similar, yet different, answers.

Hope this helps!

A comet travels at an average speed of 233,000 km/h.
mixer [17]

Answer:

39,144,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Distance traveled = time * speed

Given speed: 233000 km/h

Given time: 7 days

It's important to note that our speed is given in per hours and out time is given in days. So in order to find how far the comet has traveled we must convert days to hours.

There are 24 hours in 1 day.

So to convert days to hours simply multiply amount of days by 24

24 * 7 = 168

So the comet has traveled for 168 hours

Now we can find distance traveled

Once again distance traveled = time * speed

Given speed is 233000 km/h

Given time is 168 hours

Distance = 168 * 233000 = 39,144,000

So the comet has traveled for a total distance of 39,144,000 km
