Brandon rode in a taxi that charges a flat fee of $2.25 and an additional $0.40 per mile of his trip. If he paid $6.80 for the c

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

11 $\frac{3}{8}$ miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many miles Brandon rode, we can create an equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

$2.25 is the flat fee, or the unchanging variable. This is our y-intercept, or b.

$0.40 is the changing variable, as it changes value depending on the amount of miles ridden. This is our slope, or m.

We know Brandon spent $6.80 on the cab ride. So, this is our y.

We get the equation: 6.80 = 0.40x + 2.25.

To solve, first subtract 2.25 from both sides of the equation:

6.80 - 2.25 = 0.40x + 2.25 - 2.25

We get: 4.55 = 0.40x

Now, just divide by 0.40 on both sides:

4.55 ÷ 0.40 = 0.40x ÷ 0.40

We get: 11.375 = x

So, Brandon rode for 11.375 miles. When converted to a mixed number, we get 11 $\frac{3}{8}$ .

Mystery question A=8+8 B= A-7 A=16 B=

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

9.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given that A = 16. It shows that B = A-7, so that would mean B is 16-7, which is 9.

Write a quadratic relation in the form y = ax2 + bx + c with roots 4 and - 3 and

pochemuha

Answer:

y = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a quadratic function with roots a and b, we can write the equation for that function as:

y = f(x) = A*(x - a)*(x - b)

Where A is the leading coefficient.

In this case, we know that the roots are: 4 and -3

Then the function will be something like:

f(x) = A*(x - 4)*(x - (-3) )

f(x) = A*(x - 4)*(x + 3)

Now we need to determine the value of A.

We also know that the graph of the function passes through the point (3, -12)

This means that:

f(3) = -12

Then:

-12 = A*(3 - 4)*(3 + 3)

-12 = A*(-1)*(6)

-12 = A*(-6)

-12/-6 = A

2 = A

Then the equation is:

y = f(x) = 2*(x - 4)*(x + 3)

Now we need to write this in standard form, so we just need to expand the equation:

y = f(x) = 2*(x^2 + x*3 - x*4 - 4*3)

y = f(x) = 2*(x^2 - x - 12)

y = f(x) = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24

Then the relation is:

y = 2*x^2 - 2*x - 24

To make 5 pizzas, 1/2 cup of flour is used a. How much flour is needed to make one pizza? b.. How many cups of flour are needed

pogonyaev

Answer:

for a single pizza 1/10 a cup

for 12 pizzas 1 1/5 a cup

you can make 56 pizzas with 5 2/3 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

for 5 pizzas you need 1/2 cup of flour, so to find out how much you'll need for a single pizza you'll need to divide it with 5. 1/2÷5=1/10

for a dozen pizzas you'll need to multiply that with 12. 1/10x12=12/10=1 1/5

Then to find out how many can we make with 5 2/3 cups we'll divide it with that 1/10

56/10÷1/10= 56 pizzas
