Answer:

Alice will have to pay $13.33

Ben will have to pay $23.33

Kelvin will have to pay $43.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Alice destination is 20 miles away

Ben destination is 30 miles away

Calvin destination is 40 miles away.

For a mile, taxi costs 2 dollars.

To find:

How much each person has to pay if they share the same taxi to their respective destinations?

Solution:

For the first 20 miles, the taxi will be shared by all 3 of them.

Charges for 20 miles = 20 \times 2 = $40

This $40 will be shared among all 3.

Each will pay = \frac{40}{3} = \$13.33

Charges for Alice = $13.33

Charges for Ben = $13.33

Charges for Calvin = $13.33

For the next 10 miles, the taxi will be shared by Ben and Calvin.

Charges for 10 miles = 10 \times 2 = $20

This $20 will be shared between Ben and Calvin.

Each will pay = \frac{20}{2} = \$10

Charges for Alice = $13.33

Charges for Ben = $13.33 + 10 = $23.33

Charges for Calvin = $13.33 + 10 = $23.33

For the next 10 miles, Calvin travels alone.

Charges for 10 miles = 10 \times 2 = $20

This $20 will be paid by Calvin alone.

Charges for Alice = $13.33

Charges for Ben = $23.33

Charges for Calvin = $23.33 + 20 = $43.33

What is the range of the function y = x 2?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The range of the function y = x2 is all real numbers, y, such that y ≥ 0. In the case of the function y = x2, the domain consists of all real numbers, because there is no number that, when plugged in for x into x2, would create an undefined expression.

What is the solution for the equation 14.8 equals n -0.3
vodomira [7]

Hello there!

14.8=n-0.3

Answer:

\boxed{n=15.1=15.0}

You can also round up to the nearest tenths is 15.1 to 15.0 and its going to be stay.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you had to switch sides of equation form.

n-0.3=14.8

Then you add by 0.3 from both sides of equation form.

n-0.3+0.3=14.8+0.3

And finally, simplify by equation. You can also cross out by -0.3+0.3 and it gave us equal to zero. Then you add 14.8+0.3 and it equal to 15.1. You had to used their variable and its should be the right answer.

n=15.1

Hope this helps!

And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day.

beks73 [17]

Answer: option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

y = f(x) = x^2  - 1

The output is 99 when y = 99, and the input is x.

Then we need to solve:

y = 99 = x^2 - 1

for x.

99 = x^2 - 1

99 + 1  =x^2

100 = x^2

√100 = x

10 = x

The correct option is d, input equals 10.
