Answer:
25 miles, and the cost will be $37.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mose's charge can be represented by f(x) = 0.5x + 25, Holly's charge can be represented by g(x) = 0.3x + 30.
Set the equations equal to each other: 0.5x + 25 = 0.3x + 30.
0.2x = 5
x = 25
Substitute 25 for x: f(x) = 0.5(25) + 25 = 37.5, g(x) = 0.3(25) + 30 = 37.5.
So f(x) = g(x) at x = 25, and the output will be 37.5.
1 gallon cost $15
1 quarts cost $4
1 quarts = 1/4 gallon
15x for number of gallon cans
2 cans at $4 each = $8
15x + 8 = 53
Subtract 8 from both sides:
15x = 53-8
15x = 45
Divide both sides by 15:
x = 45/15
x = 3
She bought 3 gallon cans of paint
Plus she bought 2 quart cans, which is equal to a half gallon.
She bought a total of 3.5 gallons of paint.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
More than anything else, Algebra is a procedure. It has rules and axioms which when followed produce answers to problems -- problems that may not yield anything without Algebra.
These axioms and rules are familiar to anyone who has taken a course in advanced Mathematics. So each person who knows the procedure knows also how mathematics can work. It is a universal language spoken by those trained in what it offers to the education of both the "sender" and the "receiver."
It would be called
Pythagoras theorum.
15 multiplied by 13 is equal to 195.
