Answer:
Carlos and Pamela drove 120 miles on the first day, 240 miles on the second day, and 290 miles on the third day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of miles driven on the first day.
Then they drove twice as many miles, or 2x on the second day
and 50 miles more than the second day's, so 2x + 50
The total is 650 across all three days, so we'll take the sum.
x + 2x + (2x + 50) = 650
Combine like terms on the left
5x + 50 = 650
Subtract 50 on both sides
5x = 600
Divide by 5 on both sides
x = 120
Check work:
120 + 2(120) + 2(120) + 50 = 650
120 + 240 + 240 + 50 = 650
600 + 50 = 650
650 = 650
So they drove 120 miles on the first day
2*120 = 240 miles on the second day
and 2*120 + 50 = 240 + 50 = 290 miles on the third day
Divide total distance by total time:
5 feet / 2 seconds = 2 and 1/2 feet per second.

A. The independent variable is time, as time is manipulating the value of her salary.
b. The dependent variable is her cost because what she charges for babysitting depends on how long she works.
