When 2 lines are coinciding, this means its the same line.
One equation is simply a multiple of the other.
8x = 4x*2
This means the multiplier is 2
5y*2 = 10y
8*2 = 16
The missing values are 10y and 16
Answer:
The maximum distance is 17.5 miles
No she can't make to the airport.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the cab charges $0.8 per mile and $2 for tolls.
let the miles travelled by melissa be x.
The total charge is $
Now given that she can spend a maximum of $16
so the inequality is
Therefore the maximum distance she can travel is 17.5 miles
Since the distance to airport is 25 miles which is greater than 17.5 miles she cannot afford the cab.
Answer:
The rate is 0.9 gallon per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we have 4.5 gallons drained in 5 minutes but we are interested in calculating the rate per minute
Let the amount drained per minute be x
4.5 gallons = 5 minutes
x gallon = 1 minute
Let’s cross multiply;
x * 5 = 4.5 * 1
5x = 4.5
x = 4.5/5
x = 0.9 gallons
Negative exponents mean that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line. For example, x^-2 is the same as 1/x^2. In this example, 1/2^-2 would be 2.
2/1^2 = 2
