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)
C. A function can only have one y value for an x value
Answer:
x = 4 , y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3y = 7 -- (1)
3x - 3y = 15 -- (2)
Rewriting (1), x = 3y + 7 -- (1)'
Substituting (1)' into (2),
3 ( 3y + 7 ) - 3y = 15
9y + 21 - 3y = 15
6y = -6
y = -1 -- (3)
Substituting (3) into (1),
x - 3 ( - 1 ) = 7
x + 3 = 7
x = 4 -- (4)
According to (3) and (4),
x = 4 , y = -1
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (90-80)/(0-1)
= 10/-1
=-10
The slope is -10 ft/s
This means the height decreases 10 ft for every second that passes
This is not proportional because it has to go through the point (0,0)
4.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (1000-0)/(3-0)
= 1000/3
=1000/3
The slope is $1000/3
This means the 1000 dollars is sold every 3 days
This is proportional because it goes through the point (0,0) and has a constant slope
