Cab companies often charge a flat fee for picking someone up and then charge an additional fee per mile driven. Pick a U.S. city

and research the rates of two
different cab companies in that city. Find companies that charge different amounts per mile and have different flat fees. If you have trouble finding this information for two companies, you can make up what you think would be reasonable prices for a cab's flat rate and a cab's rate per mile.

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.

A grocery store sells a bag of 3 oranges for $2.01. What is the cost of oranges, in dollars per orange?
Alik [6]

Answer:

0.67

Step-by-step explanation:

2.01 is the total for three oranges.

the math would be 2.01 ÷ 3 = 0.67

to check your answer:

if one orange equals 0.67 and you have three of them

the math would be 3 × 0.67 = 2.01

Expand the following using the Binomial Theorem and Pascal’s triangle. (x + 2)6 (x − 4)4 (2x + 3)5 (2x − 3y)4 In the expansion o
ivolga24 [154]
\bf (2x+3)^5\implies &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;term&coefficient&value\\&#10;-----&-----&-----\\&#10;1&&(2x)^5(+3)^0\\&#10;2&+5&(2x)^4(+3)^1\\&#10;3&+10&(2x)^3(+3)^2\\&#10;4&+10&(2x)^2(+3)^3\\&#10;5&+5&(2x)^1(+3)^4\\&#10;6&+1&(2x)^0(+3)^5&#10;\end{array}

as you can see, the terms exponents, for the first term, starts at highest, 5 in this case, then every element it goes down by 1, till it gets to 0

for the second term, starts at 0, and every element it goes up by 1, till it gets to the highest

now, to get the coefficient, they way I get it, is "the product of the current coefficient and the exponent of the first term, divided by the exponent of the second term plus 1"

notice the first coefficient is always 1

so...how did we get 10 for the 3rd element?  well, 5*4/2
how did we get 10 for the fourth element?  well, 10*2/4


\bf (2x-3y)^4\implies &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;term&coefficient&value\\&#10;-----&-----&-----\\&#10;1&&(2x)^4(-3y)^0\\&#10;2&+4&(2x)^3(-3y)^1\\&#10;3&+6&(2x)^2(-3y)^2\\&#10;4&+4&(2x)^1(-3y)^3\\&#10;5&+1&(2x)^0(-3y)^4&#10;\end{array}


\bf (3a+4b)^8\implies &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;term&coefficient&value\\&#10;-----&-----&-----\\&#10;1&&(3a)^8(+4b)^0\\&#10;2&+8&(3a)^7(+4b)^1\\&#10;3&+28&(3a)^6(+4b)^2\\&#10;4&+56&(3a)^5(+4b)^3\\&#10;5&+70&(3a)^4(+4b)^4\\&#10;6&+56&(3a)^3(+4b)^5\\&#10;7&+28&(3a)^2(+4b)^6\\&#10;8&+8&(3a)^1(+4b)^7\\&#10;9&+1&(3a)^0(+4b)^8&#10;\end{array}

and from there, you can simplify the elements of the expansion by combining the coefficients

like for example, the 7th element of (3a+4b)⁸ will then be 1032192a²b⁶
