a) The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18

b) The cost for m mile taxi ride is 1.5 m + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

The fixed charges for the pick up = $3

Charges per mile = $1.50

Let s denote the total miles driven and t be the total cost for the trip

This can be represented by the equation

t = 3 + 1.5s

Step 2:

Distance traveled by Jonathan in his trip = 10 miles

So cost for riding 10 miles is

t = 3 + 1.5(10) = 3 + 15 = $18

The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18

Step 3 :

If the distance traveled is m miles, then substituting s = m in the above equation we get the cost as 1.5 m + 3

Step 4 :

Answer :

a) The cost for 10 mile taxi ride is $18

b) The cost for m mile taxi ride is 1.5 m + 3

Total profit P is defined as total revenue R -= total cost C, and is given by the function Upper P left parenthesis x right par

Goshia [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

Where,

P(x) = Total profit

R(x) = Total revenue

C(x) = Total cost

R(x)equals150.97 x minus 0.3 x squared

R(x) = 150.97x - 0.3x^2

Upper C left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals 4529.10 plus 0.5 x squared.

C(x) = 4529.10 + 0.5x^2

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

= (150.97x - 0.3x^2) - ( 4529.10 + 0.5x^2)

= 150.97x - 0.3x^2 - 4529.10 - 0.5x^2

= 150.97x - 0.8x^2 - 4529.10

P(x) = -0.8x^2 + 150.97x - 4529.10

Ivan has 6 times as many blue beads as red beads. he has 49 red and blue beads in all. how many blue beads does Ivan have

salantis [7]

Let

x--------> the number of blue beads

y--------> the number of red beads

we know that

$x+y=49$

$x=49-y$ -------> equation $1$

$x=6y$ ------> equation $2$

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$49-y=6y\\ 6y+y=49\\ 7y=49\\\\ y=\frac{49}{7} \\ \\ y=7$

find the value of x

$x=6*7\\ x=42$

therefore

the answer is

Ivan has $42$ $blue beads$

Math Plz Help. Please graph with two points! explain how you found your answer

Softa [21]

X intercept: y = 0
y= -3/4x -4
0 = -3/4 x - 4
4= -3/4 x
4 • -4/3 = x
-5.3 = x
y intercept: x = 0
y = -3/4 x -4
y = -3/4 (0) -4
y = -4
the points are (-5.3, 0) and (0, -4)
