Aimme is right. All the sides are obtuse. They do not equal exactly 90 degrees.
The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
c. y = -35*x + 105
Step-by-step explanation:
Lo que demos hacer es calcular los puntos cuando x = 0 y cuando x = 3, es decir el inicio y el fin del recorrido.
Cuando x es igual 0, y = 105, por lo tanto, la función sería:
y = A*x + 105
Cuando x = 3, y = 0, por lo tanto:
0 = 3*A + 105
resolvemos para A:
3*A = -105
A = -105/3
A = -35
Por lo tanto la función es:
y = -35*x + 105
es decir, la opción c.
Step 1. Identify the variable.
Step 2. Write an algebraic equation.
Step 3. Solve the equation.
Step 4. Answer the equation.
Step 5. Check answer.
Hope this helps...?
You paid ..I’m broke so I can’t lol ..in my opinion it can be helpful sometimes because some of the questions don’t get answered or it’s someone just saying “I don’t know
