Answer:
In order to have ran 33 miles, Bobby would have to attend <em>32 track practices.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving this problem entails of uncovering the amount of track practices Bobby must attend in order to have ran 33 miles. Start by reading the problem carefully to break down the information provided.
You can see that Bobby has already ran one mile on his own. This is important to remember for later. The problem also states that he expects to run one mile at every track practice.
Setting up an equation will help us solve. Here is how we could set up the equation:
(<em>amount of miles already ran</em> = 1) + (<em>number of track practices</em> = x) = (<em>total miles to run</em> = 33)
1 + x = 33
The equation is now in place. You can solve this, or isolate <em>'x',</em> by using the subtraction property of equality. This means we will subtract one from both sides of the equation, thus isolating the variable.
1 + x = 33
1 - 1 + x = 33 - 1
x = 32
The variable is the only term left on the left side of the equation. This means Bobby must attend track practice <em>32 times</em> in order to have ran 33 miles.
2 is the GCF of 32 and 50.
Answer:
11a − 29b − 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 7 from − 3
7a − 21b − 10 − 40 + 4a − 8b
Add 7a and 4a
11a - 21b - 10 - 40 - 8b
Subtract 8b from -21b
11a - 29b - 10 - 40
Subtract 40 from -10
11a - 29b - 50
Answers:
- a = 475
- r = -0.5
- f(3) = 59.4
=======================================================
Explanation:
Any exponential function is of the form y = a*b^x
Comparing that to y = 475*(0.5)^x, we see that a = 475 and b = 0.5
Set b equal to 1+r and solve for r
1+r = 0.5
r = 0.5-1
r = -0.5
The negative r value tells us that the growth rate is -50%, in other words, we have a 50% decay rate. The amount drops by 50% each time x goes up by 1. This is the same as saying the amount cuts in half each time x goes up by 1.
-----------------------
Lastly, plug in x = 3 to find f(3)
f(x) = 475(0.5)^x
f(3) = 475(0.5)^3
f(3) = 59.375
f(3) = 59.4
