A taxi company charges $1.00 for the first mile (or part of a mile) and 20 cents for each succeeding tenth of a mile (or part).

Express the cost C (in dollars) of a ride as a piecewise defined function of the distance x traveled (in miles) for 0 < x ≤ 2 and sketch a graph of this function.

Step-by-step explanation:

solving functions separately.

1st:  from given data taxi charges $1.00 for the first mile.so it is first rule of function.

y_{1} =1 , 0

2nd: the company charge $0.20 per tenth of a mile.so 2nd rule of the function will  be

y_{2} =1+0.2.10(x-1)

simplifying

y_{2} =1+2(x-1)

y_{2} =x+2x-2

y_{2} =x ,  1

piece wise function is f(x)={2 ,  0<x<1

                                              {x ,  1<x<2

the graph of the function is given below

Elden [556K]

Answer: $8470

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you can substitute 4 for x:

f(x) = 13500*.89^4\\f(x) = 13500*0.6274\\f(x) = 8470

Mikayla's scooter is worth around $8470 after 4 years.

It was originally worth 13,500 dollars and depreciated by 11% every year.

Select the two figures that are similar to the 5 by 10 figure that is shown.
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Figure (i) and (iv)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Optional figure is given in attached file.

We need to find two figures that are similar to the 5 by 10 figure.

All the given figure are m\times n form.

Where m represent the number of rows and n represent the number of columns.

Solution:

Observe that in the given figure 5 by 10, the number of rows is 5 and number of columns is 10, that is, the number of columns is double of that the number of rows.

So we need to find two such figures whose number of columns is double of the number of rows.

From the given figures, figure (i) the number of rows is 2 and number of columns is 4, which is double of number of rows. so it is similar to 5 by 10 figure.

Similarly in figure (iv), the number of rows is 4 and number of columns is 8. so the number of columns is double the number of rows, so it is similar to the figure 5 by 10.

Therefore, the two figures that are similar to 5 by 10 figure are given in attached file such as (i) and (iv).
