A train ticket in a certain city is $2.00. People who use the train also have the option of purchasing a frequent rider pass for

$18.00 each month. With the pass, each ticket costs only $1.25. Determine the number of times in a month the train must be used so that the total monthly cost without the pass is the same as the total monthly cost with the pass.
a. 26 times
b. 24 times
c. 23 times
d. 25 times

Answer:

the number of times in a month the train must be used, so that the total monthly cost without the pass is the same as the total monthly cost with the pass, is b. 24 times

Step-by-step explanation:

in normal purchase, train ticket (A) = $2.00

using frequent pass,

frequent pass (P) = $18

train ticket using frequent pass (B) = $1.25

Now, let assume the number of times in a month the train must be used = M

so,

                                  A x M = P + (B x M)

                            $2.00 x M = $18 + ($1.25 x M)

    ($2.00 x M) - ($1.25 x M) = $18

             M x ($2.00 - $1.25) = $18

                                        M = $18 : $0.75

                                        M = 24

Thus, the number of times in a month the train must be used is 24 times

Need help on this, I never learned how to do this yet and it’s on homework
Wewaii [24]

For a function f(x), its average rate of change on an interval [a, b] is given by what's called the "difference quotient",

\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

and is basically the ratio of the difference in values of f(x) at the endpoints to the difference in the endpoints themselves.

I assume the 6 intervals below each table correspond to each table immediately above them.

From the first table, we get the following average rates of change (after arranging the intervals from left to right):

• [-3, -2] : (f(-2) - f(-3)) / (-2 - (-3)) = (7 - 12)/1 = -5

• [-2, -1] : (f(-1) - f(-2)) / (-1 - (-2)) = (4 - 7)/1 = -3

• [-1, 0] : (f(0) - f(-1)) / (0 - (-1)) = (3 - 4)/1 = -1

• [0, 1] : (f(1) - f(0)) / (1 - 0) = (4 - 3)/1 = 1

• [1, 2] : (f(2) - f(1)) / (2 - 1) = (7 - 4)/1 = 3

• [2, 3] : (f(3) - f(2)) / (3 - 2) = (12 - 7)/1 = 5

Just do the same for the other two tables. Note that each listed interval has length 1, so practically, each average rate of change over [a, b] is exactly f(b) - f(a).

For parts (c) and (d):

• (c) You'll notice that each of the average rates of change are odd numbers …

• (d) … but they're not necessarily all the same size, and they follow slightly different patterns.

Find the equation of a line passing through the point (6,−5) and parallel to the line y = 7x + 1. answers : y = 7x − 47 y = −17x
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

<h2>y = 7x-47</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 7x + 1.\\(6,-5)\\m= 7\\x1= 6\\y1 = -5\\y-y1=m(x-x1)\\y-(-5) = 7(x-6)\\y+5=7x-42\\y=7x-42-5\\y = 7x-47

Which shows one way to determine the factors of x3 11x2 – 3x – 33 by grouping? x2(x 11) 3(x – 11) x2(x – 11) – 3(x – 11) x2(x 11
Aloiza [94]

The one way to determine factors of x³  + 11x² – 3x – 33  will be x^2(x+11)-3(x+11)_.

<h3>What is a factorization?</h3>

It is the method to separate the polynomial into parts and the parts will be in multiplication. And the value of the polynomial at this point will be zero.

The steps involved in the factorization are;

1. For each pair of parentheses, we create a common factor.

2. We use x2 as a common factor for the first parenthesis.

3. We use common factor 3 for the second parenthesis.

x^3  + 11x^2 - 3x -33 \\\\ x^2(x+11)-3(x+11)_

We will find the final solution as x^2(x+11)-3(x+11)_.

Hence the one way to determine factors of x³  + 11x² – 3x – 33  will be x^2(x+11)-3(x+11)_.

Prove the statement holds for all positive integers:<br><br> 2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 2n = n² + n
crimeas [40]

Proving a relation for all natural numbers involves proving it for n = 1 and showing that it holds for n + 1 if it is assumed that it is true for any n.

The relation 2+4+6+...+2n = n^2+n has to be proved.

If n = 1, the right hand side is equal to 2*1 = 2 and the left hand side is equal to 1^1 + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2

Assume that the relation holds for any value of n.

2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 2n + 2(n+1) = n^2 + n + 2(n + 1)

= n^2 + n + 2n + 2

= n^2 + 2n + 1 + n + 1

= (n + 1)^2 + (n + 1)

This shows that the given relation is true for n = 1 and if it is assumed to be true for n it is also true for n + 1.

<span>By mathematical induction the relation is true for any value of n.</span>
