Answer:
<u>1. New York City:</u> The initial charge is $ 2.50 plus $ 0.50 per 1/5 mile when traveling above 12 mph or per 60 seconds in slow traffic or when the vehicle is stopped. There are other surcharges for overnight, rush hour or congestion.
<u>2. Boston:</u> First 1/7 Mile: $2.60 and each 1/7 Mile thereafter: $0.40.
<u>3. Houston:</u> First 1/11 mile $2.80
, each additional 1/11 mile $0.20
. Rate per mile after first mile $2.20 and wait time per minute $0.40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally, there's a standard fare for each city, so for answering the question we picked three well-known cities for comparing the fares.
<u>1. New York City:</u> The initial charge is $ 2.50 plus $ 0.50 per 1/5 mile when traveling above 12 mph or per 60 seconds in slow traffic or when the vehicle is stopped. There are other surcharges for overnight, rush hour or congestion.
<u>2. Boston:</u> First 1/7 Mile: $2.60 and each 1/7 Mile thereafter: $0.40.
<u>3. Houston:</u> First 1/11 mile $2.80
, each additional 1/11 mile $0.20
. Rate per mile after first mile $2.20 and wait time per minute $0.40.
Answer:
x < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Yup
Although the number of new wildflowers is decreasing, the total number of flowers is increasing every year (assuming flowers aren't dying or otherwise being removed). Every year, 25% of the number of new flowers from the previous year are added.
The sigma notation would be:
∑ (from n=1 to ∞) 4800 * (1/4)ⁿ , where n is the year.
Remember that this notation should give us the sum of all new flowers from year 1 to infinite, and the values of new flowers for each year should match those given in the table for years 1, 2, and 3
This means the total number of flowers equals:
Year 1: 4800 * 1/4 = 1200 ]
+
Year 2: 4800 * (1/4)² = 300
+
Year 3: 4800 * (1/4)³ = 75
+
Year 4: 4800 * (1/4)⁴ = 18.75 = ~19 (we can't have a part of a flower)
+
Year 5: 4800 * (1/4)⁵ = 4.68 = ~ 5
+
Year 6: 4800 * (1/4)⁶ = 1.17 = ~1
And so on. As you can see, it in the years that follow the number of flowers added approaches zero. Thus, we can approximate the infinite sum of new flowers using just Years 1-6:
1200 + 300 + 75 + 19 + 5 + 1 = 1,600
12 - 5.25 = 6.75
The other piece is 6.75 inches long
