Answer:
D) p³ + 2; when p = 3 the number of plants is 29.
Step-by-step explanation:
Illiana cubed (³) the number of original plants, p, in the garden. Then, she added 2 more plants. We will use n for the number of total plants.
So, the equation should be p³ + 2. Substitute our value for p into the equation and solve.
p³ + 2 = n
3³ + 2 = n
27 + 2 = n
29 = n
There are 29 total plants.
The answer, then, is the last option, p³ + 2; when p = 3 the number of plants is 29.
Good luck ^^
The expression you would need to know how many games Chris sold is:
(504 divided by n) -17
First, let's make these two into equations.
The first plan has an initial fee of $40 and costs an additional $0.16 per mile driven.
Our equation would then be
C = 40 + 0.16m
where C is the total cost, and m is the number of miles driven.
The second plan has an initial fee of $51 and costs an additional $0.11 per mile driven.
So, the equation is
C = 51 + 0.11m
where C is the total cost, and m is the number of miles driven.
Now, your question seems to be asking for one mileage for both, equalling one cost. I would go through all the steps I've taken to try and find this for you, but it would probably take hours to type out and read. In short, I'm not entirely sure that an answer like that is possible in this situation, simply because of the large difference in the initial fee of the two plans, along with the sparse common multiples between the two mileage costs.
