Let x be the number of miles EXCLUDING the first
Amount of money paid (excluding the first : $(0.1).x
Total money paid (INCLUDING the 1st mile):
0.90 + (0.1)x = $3.2
0.1.x = 3.2 -0.90
0.1.x = 2.3
x = 2.3/0.1 = 23 miles
Now we have to add the 1st mile, then the total of miles = 23+1 = 24 Miles

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}x+16=37$

63 Jelly Beans

Step-by-step explanation:

The unknown is the number of jelly beans originally in the bag or x

First he had x jelly beans

The he ate one-third of them

$\frac{1}{3}x$

He then ate 16 more jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16$

This was equal to 37 jelly beans

$\frac{1}{3}x+16=37$

This is the equation

Now solve for x

Subtract 16 from both sides

$\frac{1}{3}x=21$

Multiply both sides by 3

$x=63$

Thirteen percent of the profits from Kendall’s business are donated to charities.write and solve an equation to find out how muc

pychu [463]

The amount given to charity from Kendall’s profit is $168.0146

Given:

Kendall’s profit = $1292.42
Percentage given to charity = 13%

<h3>How to find percentage</h3>

Amount given to charity = Percentage given to charity × Kendall’s profit

= 13% of $1292.42

= 13/100 × 1292.42

= 0.13 × 1292.42

= $168.0146

Therefore, the amount given to charity from Kendall’s profit is $168.0146

The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of the triangle is 12 meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangl

lianna [129]

Answer:

Length:8 m

Width:3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

If the perimeter of a rectangle is 22 meters, and the perimeter of a right triangle is 12 meters (the sides of the triangle are half the length of the rectangle, the width of the rectangle, and the hypotenuse is 5 meters). How do you solve for L and W, the dimensions of the rectangle.

step 1

Perimeter of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$P=22\ m$

$22=2(L+W)$

Simplify

$11=L+W$ -----> equation A

step 2

Perimeter of triangle

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

$P=\frac{L}{2}+W+5$

$P=12\ m$

$12=\frac{L}{2}+W+5$

Multiply by 2 both sides

$24=L+2W+10$

$L+2W=14$ ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (8,3)

see the attached figure

therefore

The dimensions of the rectangle are

Length:8 m

Width:3 m

If an equation is an identity, then how many solutions does it have?

olga2289 [7]

Hello,

If an equation is an identity, then every value of the variable makes the egality true.

Generaly we resolve an equation in R.

In this case Sol=R
