Summarizing the problem, there are three terms that you have to deal with: purchasing cost, down payment and loan. So, you would expect that the answer would contain these quantities. Among them, the unknown is the purchasing cost, therefore, we denote this as x. 

<span>Based on the statement, "The amount of the loan is the purchase cost minus the down payment", we can formulate an equation for this. 

Amount of Loan = x - Down payment

This will be our working equation. Moving on, the down payment was mentioned to be equal to </span>$1500. The lean received is equal to <span>$2600. Substituting these values to the working equation, we can now determine the value of x.

2600 = x - 1500

Solving for x by transposing it to one side,

x = 2600-1500
x = $1,100

Therefore, the purchasing cost of the car is $1,100.</span>

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

6.48 dollars total,

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would want to multiply the amount of money per pound, by the amount of pounds. 1.60 multiplied by 4 1/2 or 4.5, would equal to 7.2 dollars. In order to find 10% of 7.2, your would need to multiply 7.2 by 0.10, which would give you 0.72. Then you would subtract 7.2 by 0.72 to get 6.48. So your answer would be 6.48 dollars. Hoped this helped.

a leaf hangs from a branch 12 feet in the air. it falls to the ground at a rate of 0.25 feet per second. which graph could repre
Kipish [7]
For this case we have an equation of the form:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (a) * (t ^ 2) + v0 * t + h0&#10;
 Where,
 h0: initial height
 v0: initial speed
 a: acceleration
 Substituting values we have:
 h (t) = (1/2) * (- 32) * (t ^ 2) + 0.25 * t + 12&#10;
 Rewriting we have:
 h (t) = -16t ^ 2 + 0.25 * t + 12&#10;
 Note: see attached image
 Answer:
 
h (t) = -16t ^ 2 + 0.25 * t + 12

The function y=40x describes how far from home Shu Ling is as she drives from Dallas to Miami. Graph the function. Use the graph
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

You can see the graph below.

To answer the question, you need to draw a vertical line from x = 12h up, until the line meets with the line.

Once the line meets with the line, draw a horizontal line from that point, and the value where this line intersects with the y-axis will be the distance from home after 12 hours.

The graph is kinda hard to read because the line is really steep, the green line is the equation y = 40*x

the red line is a line at x = 12

The black dashed line is the horizontal line that intersects with the y-axis.

In the graph, you can see that the dashed line intersects the y-axis at around y = 475.

Then a good estimate is that the distance after 12 hours is 475 (miles).

Now, we can compare this with the direct calculation, just replace x by 12 in the given line:

y = 40*12 = 480.

So our estimation is really accurate.
