Using a linear function, we have that:
a) The fixed cost is of $10.
b) The equation is: C = 10 + 12d.
c) The cost of an 18 km trip is $226.
d) The distance traveled is of 20 km.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
For this problem, the slope is of m = 12. When d = 5, C(d) = 70, hence we find the fixed cost as follows:
C(d) = 12d + b
70 = 60 + b
b = 10.
Hence the equation is:
C(d) = 12d + 10.
For a trip of 18 km, d = 18, hence the cost is:
C(12) = 12 x 18 + 10 = $226.
When the cost is of $250, the distance is found as follows:
250 = 12d + 10
12d = 240
d = 240/12
d = 20 km.

#SPJ1
Answer:
0.07
Step-by-step explanation:
The hundredths place is the place between the tenths and thousandths place. For example, the digit in the tenths place in 0.073 is 7.
To round to the nearest hundredth, we look to the digit right of the hundredth digit, 7. We notice that the digit in the thousandths place is 3. When rounding, if a number is 4 or less, we change that digit to a 0, along with the digits beyond it. If a number is 5 or more, we bump up the digit to the next number. Since 3 is less than 4, we change 0.073 to 0.07.

Answer:
since the bases (X) are the same only the exponents will be subtracted and b is greater than a to get a negative exponent

Answer:
(n-2) • (4n+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
4n2-5n-6
Final result :
(n - 2) • (4n + 3)
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(22n2 - 5n) - 6
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 4n2-5n-6
The first term is, 4n2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -5n its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -6
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • -6 = -24
Step-2 : Find two factors of -24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-24 + 1 = -23
-12 + 2 = -10
-8 + 3 = -5 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -8 and 3
4n2 - 8n + 3n - 6
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
4n • (n-2)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
3 • (n-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(4n+3) • (n-2)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(n - 2) • (4n + 3)
