Let's assume the number be 100.

According to the problem , 100 is increased by 100%.

So, new number will be 100+100=200

Now 200 will decreased by 20%.

So, 20% of 200= 0.20*200= 40.

So, again the number has been changed into 200+40=240.

So, x=240

Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walk
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walks and then a certain dollar amount for each additional mile he walks. Based on this pledge, if Aaron walks 8 miles, the sponsor will donate a total of $23 to the charity.

Write a formula that can be used to determine the amount of money this sponsor donates when Aaron walks n miles.

total amount sponsor pays = base donations + (additional miles walked after first mile x amount paid)

when Aaron walks 8 miles

additional miles = 8 - 1 = 7

23 = 2 + 7x

23 - 2 = 7x

x = 3

additional amount paid is $3

total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)

2) -6

8 is positive and 14 negative. You can either draw a number line and help yourself with that or since the negative one is bigger you can do the subtraction 14 - 8 and then change the sign of the answer.
