F = 2.25 + 0.20(m-1)

F = 6.05

6.05 = 2.25 + 0.20(m-1)

Subtract 2.25 on both sides

6.05 - 2.25 = 0.20(m-1)

3.8 = 0.2(m-1)

Divide both sides by 0.2

3.8/0.2 = m - 1

19 = m - 1

Add 1 on both sides

19 + 1 = m

m = 20
 
If Juan's taxi fare was $6.05, then Juan traveled 20 miles in the taxi.

In this problem, it is just a simple case of substitution and solving for the m which is the number of miles. Take the equation F = 2.25 + 0.20 (m-1). According to the given, the fare, or the F is 6.05 so with that, we can already solve the equation. this will be 6.05 = 2.25 + 0.20 (m-1). After that, all we have to do is just solve for the m. If we would solve for the m, we will end up with a final answer of 20. So all in all, the taxi was able to travel 20 miles on the 6.05 fare of Juan

Find the approximate volume. Round to the hundredth when necessary.
Alika [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Base Surface Area =  π×72

=  153.9380400259 millimeters2

Lateral Surface Area =  π×7×√72 + 142

=  344.215921821 millimeters2

Total Surface Area = 498.1539618469 millimeters2

Rounded = 500 millimeters2

2:Base Surface Area =  π×52

=  78.539816339745 centimeters2

Lateral Surface Area =  π×5×√52 + 102

=  175.62036827602 centimeters2

Total Surface Area = 254.16018461576 centimeters2

Rounded 300 centimeters2

Sheri's brother gave Sam his collection of stamps when she left for college. At that
pychu [463]

Answer: $70 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.

So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates  (0,420) .

Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)

To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.

420 - 980 = -560

 0-8 = -8

-560/-8 = 70

The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.
