To take a taxi it costs $3.00 plus an additional $2.00 per mile traveled. You spent exactly $20 on a taxi, which includes the $1

tip you left. How many miles did you travel?

This is a basic algebraic word problem. Make x equal the miles you traveled. multiply that by 2 and add the 3 initial dollars, then add the one dollar tip, finally make all this equal to 20. So your equation should look like this:

2x + 3 + 1 = 20

add the 3 and 1:

2x + 4 =20

move the 4 to the right side:

2x = 16

devide both sides by 2:

x = 8

So you traveled 8 miles.

Find the missing variable for a triangle: a=48in2
Galina-37 [17]
Assuming that the given triangle is a right triangle where height and base are equal, we can solve for the missing variables. Let us review the given problem, the given is the total area since unit of "a" is inch squared. 

The formula for an area of a triangle is At = 1/2(bxh). We substitute the given value and assume that h=b.

Therefore, 48=1/2bh. To eliminate 1/2, we multiply both sides by 2. Then we have 96=bh. When b=h, we have b^2=96.

The missing variables are b=h=9.8.

I’ll mark brainest! Find all the real cube roots of -0.000125
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

-0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

This will become much easier if we can get the ugly decimal into a nice fraction form.

Start by recognising \frac{1}{8}=0.125. This is almost correct except the fraction is out by some number of factors of 10 (because the 125 part is correct but the number of 0s isn't).

\frac{1}{80} = 0.0125\\\frac{1}{800}=0.00125\\\frac{1}{8000}=0.000125

And hence we see that -0.000125=-\frac{1}{8000} and now the cube root becomes easy to compute:

\sqrt[3]{-0.000125} = \sqrt[3]{\frac{-1}{8000}} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{-1}}{\sqrt[3]{8000}} = \frac{-1}{20} = -0.05.

Advanced: You ask for <em>all </em>real cube roots. however the function y=\sqrt[3]{x} is described as <em>bijective</em>. This means for all x, there is only one y corresponding to it. (And also for all y there is only one x corresponding to that). This means there can only ever be one cube root of any real number.

4.for every minute you walk 30 feet
5. Minutes
6.distance
7.just put 1 on the x axis and 30 on the y axis so the coordinate pair would be (1,30) and do the same for the rest (3, 90) (5,150) and (7,210)

The ordered pair (1, -5) is a solution for the system x + 2y = -9 and x - y = 6.<br> true <br> false
sweet [91]
In an ordered pair, x is the first number and y is the second number. So this is telling you x=1 and y=-5. You can take this information and plug it into the formulas.

x + 2y = -9
1 + 2(-5) = -9
1 + -10 = -9? True

x - y = 6
1 - -5 = 6? *
1 + 5 = 6? True.

(*Subtracting a negative makes it a positive.)
