Answer:

287 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The base fee was $17.99 and an additional 76 cents ($0.76) for every mile.

We can represent the amount he will pay for rent with the equation below:

C = 17.99 + 0.76m

where m = number of miles driven

Jim paid $236.11, therefore:

236.11 = 17.99 + 0.76m

0.76m = 236.11 - 17.99

0.76m =218.12

m = 218.12 / 0.76 = 287 miles

Jim drove 287 miles.

You just find out what the missing variable is by subtracting 88 from 107 on the first one. You do the same for the last too as-well, but just insert the numbers that they say.

Happy Friday!!

I need help with this problem

Answer:

$3.\ \dfrac{3x}{11x}, \dfrac{6}{22}, \dfrac{9}{33},\dfrac{12}{44}$

$4. -18\\5.\ 400$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution 3:</u>

Equivalent fractions to are to $\frac{3}{11}$ be found out.

<u>Method: </u> By Multiplying both the denominator and numerator with the same number, we can easily find equivalent fractions.

1. Multiply with 2:

$\dfrac{3 \times 2}{11 \times 2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{6}{22}$

2. Multiply with 3:

$\dfrac{3 \times 3}{11 \times 3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{9}{33}$

3. Multiply with 4:

$\dfrac{3 \times 4}{11 \times 4}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{12}{44}$

If we try to write in variable form, it can be written as:

$\dfrac{3x}{11x}$

where x is any number.

---------------

<u>Solution 4:</u>

$(2x-10)$ when $x=-4$

$2 \times (-4) -10\\\Rightarrow -8 -10\\\Rightarrow -18$

------------

<u>Solution 5:</u>

$(10a)^2, a=-2\\\Rightarrow \{10 \times (-2)\}^2\\\Rightarrow (-20)^2\\\Rightarrow 400$

Graph a line that contains the point (3,-6) and has a slope of -1/2

djyliett [7]

If I were you, I would make the starting point (3,-6). From there, you will want to use the slope of -1/2 (go down 1 unit and to the right 2 units and draw a point)

What happens to the value?

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

D.) c is multiplied by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$c = \dfrac{8a^3}{b}$

If a is doubled, it becomes 2a. If b is doubled, it becomes 2b. Now we replace a with 2a and b with 2b and simplify.

$c = \dfrac{8(2a)^3}{2b}$

$c = \dfrac{8 \times 8a^3}{2b}$

$c = \dfrac{4 \times 8a^3}{b}$

$c = 4 \times \dfrac{8a^3}{b}$

Answer: D.) c is multiplied by 4

The gross domestic product (GDP) of a certain country, which measures the overall size of the economy in billions of dollars, ca

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The estimated GDP in 2007 is 12782 billion dollars.

The estimated GDP in 2011 is 15010 billion dollars.

The estimated GDP in 2012 is 15567 billion dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

$g(y) = 557y +8883$

Where y = 10 corresponds to the year 2010.

Part (b) Estimate the GDP (to the nearest billion dollars) in 2007.

If y = 10 corresponds to the year 2010 then y = 7 corresponds to the year 2007.

Substitute the value of y = 7 in the provided function.

$g(y) = 557(7) +8883$

$g(y) = 3899+8883$

$g(y) = 12782$

Hence, the estimated GDP in 2007 is 12782 billion dollars.

Part (b) Estimate the GDP (to the nearest billion dollars) in 2011.

If y = 10 corresponds to the year 2010 then y = 11 corresponds to the year 2011.

Substitute the value of y = 11 in the provided function.

$g(y) = 557(11) +8883$

$g(y) = 6127+8883$

$g(y) = 15010$

Hence, the estimated GDP in 2011 is 15010 billion dollars.

Part (C) Estimate the GDP (to the nearest billion dollars) in 2012.

If y = 10 corresponds to the year 2010 then y = 12 corresponds to the year 2012.

Substitute the value of y = 12 in the provided function.

$g(y) = 557(12) +8883$

$g(y) = 6684+8883$

$g(y) = 15567$

Hence, the estimated GDP in 2012 is 15567 billion dollars.
