I believe it would be 3/8
Think of it like this: imagine a frog on some lily pads and if it hops left it gets smaller(negative) and if it hops right it gets bigger(positive) ,(but think of it like numbers) so -14-5 think about the -14 being way down at the left and then you add on the (-5) since the number you are adding is negative it is getting smaller (going farther away from the zero, not closer) so when you add a negative to a negative number you get smaller instead of bigger. Hope that helps
Answer:
y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the leasing company charged a flat rental fee for the week, plus a charge for each mile driven.
Let flat rental fee be c and cost per mile driven = m and miles driven = x
Total cost =y
Then y = mx+C is the linear equation.
to find m and c, we use the fact that y =110.30 when x = 222
i.e. 110.30 = c+222x
and similarly 99.05 = c+147x
Subtract to eliminate c
11.25 = 75 x
0.15 =x
Substitute in I equation
110.30 = c+222(0.15)
c = 77
y = 0.15x+77 is the equation linear connecting total cost y and miles driven x
Answer: <em>One ticket cost about $800 or to be exact: $824</em>
<em />
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that there are 3 plane tickets and total is is $2472.
To find out for ONE ticket, you can divide 2472 by 3 as shown below:
2472 ÷ 3 = 824
