Answer:

The most number of layers he can afford is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We automatically have a fee of 17 so we know we have 13 dollars remaining. Using this information, we know that one layer is 5 dollars which means we can get 2 layers which is equal to 10 dollars which turns our total fee to $27. Hope this helps!

First off you have the starting cost (C).
C=$17

each layer is $5, so that becomes 5x.

the equation will be $17+5x=30

hope this helped !! :)

Caden exercises daily by walking on a treadmill. He sets the machine so that he will walk at a steady rate of 3.6 miles per hour
babunello [35]

Answer:

a) d = 3.6t

b) 10.8 miles

c) 1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a:

Slope of a line: y = mx + b

In this case, the equation would be: d = mt,

where m represents the speed Caden is walking at.

Note: b = 0 in this case because when Caden starts walking on the treadmill, he hasn't really covered any distance yet.

Therefore, plugging in a speed of 3.6 miles per hour, the equation is:

d = 3.6t

For part b:

This is a simple instance of plugging in 3 hours for our t value.

Therefore, d = 3.6 (3)

d = 10.8 miles

For part c:

In this case, we are given that d = 4.32 miles.

Therefore, 4.32 = 3.6t

Dividing both sides by 3.6, we get

t = 1.2 hours

If 2= (1+ r)^7 solve the equation for r?​
solong [7]

7 = r^1/2 is the same as saying 7 = square root of r. So, to get rid of the square root sign on the r, you need to square it, and when you do something to one side of the equation, you have to do the same to the other side. So after squaring both sides, you get 49 = r.
