Answer:

Ben can drive 500 miles for $ 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the cost of traveling and x be the number of miles . The charge is $20 plus the $0.12 per mile which means the cost $ 20 is constant and an additional cost of $ 0.12 is spent on every mile. Then according to the given conditions the equation will be

y = $20 + $ 0.12(x) where x is the number of miles

Now we can solve x for y= 80

$ 80= $20 + 0.12 (x)

$ 60 = 0.12x

x= 60/ 0.12= 500

Ben can drive 500 miles for $ 80

The ratio of the length to the width of a rectangle is 5:4. The length of the rectangle is 60 inches. What is the width?
Firlakuza [10]

\huge\boxed{\text{48 inches}}

We know that \frac{\text{length}}{\text{width}} = \frac{60}{\text{width}} = \frac{5}{4}.

Solve using cross multiplication of the last two fractions. I will use w to represent the width of the rectangle. 60*4=w*5

Multiply. 240=5w

Divide both sides of the equation by 5. \boxed{48}=w

Find the value of 40% of 1KM (in m)​
labwork [276]

40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters

<h3>What is percentage :</h3>

Percentage simply means per 100. Percentage can be express as decimal or fraction.

For example 25% of 80 can be found as follows:

  • 25 / 100 × 80 = 2000 / 100 = 20

From the example, 25% of 80 is 20 .

Therefore, 40% of 1 km(m) can be found as follows:

Let's convert km to metres.

1000m = 1km

40% of 1000

40 / 100 × 1000 = 40000 / 100 = 400metres

Therefore, 40% of 1 km in meters is 400 meters

A bacteria culture starts with 100 bacteria and doubles in size every half hour.
taurus [48]

Answer:

y=25600

y=100(2)^{2t}

y=252

Step-by-step explanation:

A bacteria culture starts with 100 bacteria and doubles in size every half hour.

y=100(2)^{2x}

where x represents the number of hours

(a) t= 4 hours

Plug in 4 for t  and find out the number of bacteria y

y=100(2)^{2 \cdot 4}\\y=25600

25600 bacteria

y=100(2)^{2t}

convert 40 seconds into hour

40 divide by 60 =2/3

y=100(2)^{2\frac{2}{3} }\\y=100(2)^{\frac{4}{3} }\\\\y=252

The graph is attached below
