Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No, this doesn't make sense because as stated in the problem, each ticket costs $2.50. Since you cant buy part of a ticket, you would have to have a whole number for t. You cannot buy 3.5 tickets.

Answer:

No, a value of t = 3.5 does not make any sense in this scenario.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

c = 2.5t

where c is the cost and t is the number of tickets.

No, a value of t = 3.5 does not make any sense in this scenario.

Because the number of tickets are discrete value and cannot have decimal values.

The continuous variable can be expressed in decimal form.

Hence, t cannot have a value of 3.5

Although, cost is a continuous variable and may have decimal values.

Answer:

A

Total before tax: $118

Total after tax: $102.66

Step-by-step explanation:

For A, we add the cost of the shirt and jeans to get the total before tax.

$39.20 + $79.80 = $118.00

For the total, after 13% we see how much 1% is.

1% of $118 is $1.18

$1.18 * 13 = $15.34.

$118 - $15.34 = $102.66

Hope this helped! Have a nice day :)

A limousine company charges a fixed cost for a limousine and an hourly rate for it's driver. It cost $500 to rent a limousine fo
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer: the fixed cost to rent the limousine is $200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the fixed cost rent the limousine.

Let y represent the cost of of hiring the driver of the limousine per hour.

It cost $500 to rent a limousine for 5 hours. This means that

x + 5y = 500 - - - - - - - - - - -1

It costs 800 to rent a limousine for 10 hours. This means that

x + 10y = 800 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

- 5y = - 300

y = - 300 /- 5

y = 60

Substituting y = 60 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 5 × 60 = 500

x + 300 = 500

x = 500 - 300

x = 200

2. The sum of two integers is 74. The larger is 26 more than twice the smaller. Find the two integers.
kompoz [17]
74=x+y is the equation at the beginning we will say that x is the smaller number and y is the larger one. Now we substitute the larger number (y) for 26+2x. Plug that into the beginning equation to get 74= x+ 26+2x. Now solve.
74=3x+26
48=3x
16=x
So we know that our smaller number is 16. To find the larger number we plug the value of the smaller number into the equation for the larger number like this.
y=26+2x
y=26+2(16)
y=26+32
y=58.
So to check our answer we can plug in both values into the beginning equation.
74=58+16
74=74.
So to sum this up the smaller number is 16 and the larger number is 58.
