Part A:
As we can see on this table, Darla run 3 miles the first week. Then she began running 1.5 miles each week (4.5 - 3 = 1.5; 6 - 4.5 = 1.5; etc...). Let x be the number of weeks. But since the first week is different from the others, we need to remove 1 from x.
The equation is: 1.5(x-1) + 3

Part B:
To know how much she can run in 14 weeks, we replace x by 14 in the previous equation.
1.5x + 3 = 1.5 * 14-1 + 3 = 1.5*13 + 3 = 22.5

So no, she can't run 26.2 miles in 14 weeks.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$46.746

Step-by-step explanation:

Allen is buying a video that originally cost = $ 49

Discount coupon = 10%

Sales tax= 6%

Hence, the price of video after discount coupon and sales tax= $ 49 ×\frac{100-10}{100}×\frac{100+6}{100}

Hence, the price of video after discount coupon and sales tax= $ 49 ×\frac{90}{100}×\frac{106}{100}

Price of video after discount coupon and sales tax= $ 49 × 0.9× 1.06

price of video after discount coupon and sales tax=  $46.746

Hence, the correct answer is $46.746

The Triangle Inequality Theorem says that the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side. Let's see if this is true.

a + b

9 + 1 = 10>9

a + c

9 + 9 = 18>1

c + b

9 + 1 = 10>9
