Answer:

The equation is y= 0,65 x

If x is the price of the ticket without the coupon, and the theater offers a discount if you have a coupon, then having a coupon means that the price a person ultimately pays (y) is the original price (x) minus a 35% of this price: y= x -0.35 x . By association: y= (1-0.35) x and then y= 0.65 x.

The line should be in the first quadrant because the first quadrant allows you to represent a situation in which the dependent variable (y) and the independent variable (x) are both positive. This is the case in this exercise, because both prices, the one without discount (x) and the one with discount (y) are necessary positive (you can not pay a negative price!).

Step-by-step explanation:

The price without discount (or without the coupon) is x.

The price with discount (or with coupon) is y.
y and x are both related: y is a percentage of x, specifically, y is 35% smaller than x. This means that y =0.65 x.

Simplify 15(2/5+1 1/3)+3

loris [4]

So for order of operations you start inside the parentheses and in order to add the insides you will need a common denominator which would be 15 on the bottom. So for 2/5 it would be 6/15 and for 11/3 would be 55/15 and then added together it would be 61/15. so then you would multiply and get 15(61/15). the 15 in the numerator will cancel with the denominator leaving only 61 and then the final step would be adding the 3 to 61 and the final answer will be 64

Answer:

Distance between A and B is 5400 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider "D" the letter to identify distance between A and B

Let's use "t" to identify the time of the first encounter (Devi and Kumar), and create an equation that states that the distance covered by Devi (at 100 m/min) in time "t", is equal to the total distance D minus what Kumar has covered at his speed (80 m/min) in that same time:

Recall that distance equals the speed times the time:

distance= speed * time

First encounter:

100 * t = D - 80 * t

180 * t = D Equation (1)

Not, 6 minutes later (at time t+6) , Devi and Li Ting meet .

Then for this encounter the distance covered by Devi equals total distance d minus the distance covered by Li Ting:

100 *(t+6) = D - 75 * (t+6)

100 t + 600 = D - 75 t - 450

175 T + 150 = D Equation (2)

Now, let's equal equation (1) to equation (2), since D should be the same:

180 t = 175 t + 150

5 t = 150

t = 30

Then the time t (first encounter) is 30 minutes. Knowing this, we can use either equation to find D:

From Equation (1) for example: D = 180 * t = 180 * 30 = 5400 meters
