Putting this as an arithmetic sequence gives:
The sum of the series = 16 x 7 x 7 = 784 m^3 = 784 000 L
The sum of an arithmetic series can be written as:
![S_n=n/2 [2a+(n-1)d] = 784 000 \\n/2[2(150)+(n-1)200] = 784 000 \\n[300+200(n-1)=1 568 000 \\300n+200n^2-200n = 1 568 000 \\200n^2+100n- 1 568 000 = 0 \\2n^2 +n- 15680 = 0 \\n= 88.2...,-88.7](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%3Dn%2F2%20%5B2a%2B%28n-1%29d%5D%20%3D%20784%20000%0A%5C%5Cn%2F2%5B2%28150%29%2B%28n-1%29200%5D%20%3D%20784%20000%0A%5C%5Cn%5B300%2B200%28n-1%29%3D1%20568%20000%0A%5C%5C300n%2B200n%5E2-200n%20%3D%201%20568%20000%0A%5C%5C200n%5E2%2B100n-%201%20568%20000%20%3D%200%0A%5C%5C2n%5E2%20%2Bn-%2015680%20%3D%200%0A%0A%5C%5Cn%3D%2088.2...%2C-88.7)
n has to be positive, so we get

Answer:
B) 1.75 + 0.45m = 13.90
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the Taxi fare, we need to sum the fixed charge and the additional charge. Fixed charge ever is $1.75. The additional charge changes with the miles traveled (one mile costs $0.45, two miles $0.90, and so on), so we need multiply the charge ($0.45) by the miles m traveled.
1.75 + 0.45 m
The problem says that the fare was equals to $13.90 so the final equation is
1.75 + 0.45m = 13.90
Answer:
2x + 6 = -18
x + 1 = -11
3x = -36
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the solution! Then you can create your own equations
2x+9=-15
2x=-24
x=-12
Thus u need solutions with:
x = -12
Knowing the equation of a line as:
y = mx + b
we can can start by making y = -12 (our solution)
mx + b = -12
Now we can pick a value for m and b by adding and miltiplying on both sides
We do this to keep both sides equal.
if we make m = 2 and b = 3:
2x + mb = -12*m + 2b
2x + 6 = -24 + 6
2x + 6 = -18
Solving this we also get x = -12, as we expect.
An alternative way to think about it is to imagine that we start with a simple equation and make it more complex. We have our solution:
x = -12 => lets add a b value!
x + b = -12 + b => Lets add a slope (m)
xm + bm = -12m + bm
Giving values for this can give you multiple equation of the same solution.
General Formula:
m(x+b) = m(y+b)
mx + bm = my + bm
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = length
Then width = (1/2)x
Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) = 54
length + width = 27
So, x + (1/2)x = 27
(3/2)x = 27
x = 27(2/3) = 18 (1/2)x = 9
Answer: length = 18 cm and width = 9 cm
