Be:
Number of hours: n
<span>The cost of renting a bike for the first hour is $7:
n=1→f(n)=f(1)=$7
</span>He is charged $2.50 for every additional hour of renting the bike:
f(n)=f(n-1)+2.50, for <span>n ≥ 2
</span>
f(1)=7; f(n)=f(n-1)+2.50, for <span>n ≥ 2 (sixth option)
</span>
f(n)=f(1)+2.50(n-1)
f(n)=7+2.50(n-1)
f(n)=7+2.50n-2.50
f(n)=2.50n+4.50 (fifth option)
Answers:
Fifth option: f(n)=2.50n+4.50, and
Sixth option: f(1)=7; f(n)=f(n-1)+2.50, for <span>n ≥ 2</span>
Answer:
infinitely many solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
y=4x
y-4=4 (x-1)
Lets substitute the first equation into the second equation.
4x -4 = 4(x-1)
Distribute
4x-4 = 4x-4
Subtract 4x from each side
4x-4x-4 =4x-4x-4
-4=-4
This is always true. X can be anything. We have infinite solutions
Short Answer B
Remark
You need not do any calculations to get the answer. You are required just to read the graph. Doing the calculations would be beneficial but unnecessary.
Step One
Find the x value.
1. If you have a ruler or a straight edge of some kind, put it on the cross point of the two graphs.
2. Make the ruler go straight up and down. You will find out it goes 1 point back of the 5.
3. Count the number of squares from 0,0 or when y = 0.
4. You will find you have to count 4 squares along the x axis.
The x value is 4.
Step Two
1. Put the ruler on the cross point again. This time make it go straight across.
2. Count up from (0,0)
You should get 8.
The y value is 8
Answer: (4,8)
