M = number of miles
m = 2.7 is plugged into the equation to get
C = 0.20*m + 2.00
C = 0.20*2.7 + 2.00
C = 0.54 + 2.00
C = 2.54
The cost is $2.54
That is basically splitting the sentence so that it’s easier for you to solve it. It’s basically the same thing
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) set up the variables
Let x represent the first number Then y will represent the second number.
b) What is the equation that represents the above situation?
c) Solve the equation.
<u>Substitute x in the second equation and solve for y:</u>
- x + y = 51
- 2y + y = 51
- 3y = 51
- y = 51/3
- y = 17
<u>Then find x</u>
Chris started with $70 in the savings account
What is the equation representing the scenario?
The equation representing the scenario painted in the question is: one half times x plus 15 equals 50
1/2*X+15=50
X/2+15=50
X/2=50-15
X/2=35
X=35*2
X=70
In short the amount Chris started with in the savings account is $70
