If it is 20% off, then ur actually paying 80%
so an equivalent expression would be 0.80p
This is the concept of algebra, we solve the question as follows:
The cost of renting a camping tent is y
The number of days is x
cost is proportional to number of days, thus:
yαx
y=kx
where k is the constant of proportionality.
If y=$56 when x=7 days, then:
56=7k
hence:
k=56/7=8
therefore:
y=kx will be:
y=8x
the equation in slope intercept form which is y=mx+c is y=8x. In our case c=0 because there was no initial payments required to rent apart from the daily charges.
7/8 of an hour is 52.5 minutes. 3/10 of 52.5 minutes is 15.75 minutes. They spent 15.75 minutes warming up and cooling down.
It has a coefficient of 4 :)
Short answer: Yes.
Each member of the sequence is multiplied by 5 to get to the next member of the sequence.
Find the general equation.
tn = a*5^(n - 1)
Example
t4 = 1*5^(4 - 1)
t4 = 1*5^3
t4 = 125 just as the sequence shows.
t5 = 1^5^4
t5 = 625 Any member of the sequence can be found this way.
