Two taxi companies compete in the same neighborhood. One of these companies
FinnZ [79.3K]

Let m = miles

let c = cost

Create a system of equations.

taxi company 1: c = $1.20m + $2

taxi company 2 c = $1.40m + $1

Set both equations equal to each other to solve for variable m.

$1.20m + $2 = $1.40m + $1

Subtract $1.20 from both sides and Subtract $1 from both sides.

$1 = $0.20m.

Divide each side by $0.20.

5 = m.

Plug 5 into one of our original equations for m.

c = $1.20(5) + $2.

Simplify the right side of the equation

c = $8

In conclusion, c = $8 and m = 5

Steve put 1/8 of the box of baking soda in each one of the five bottles to make them bubble up like volcanoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

As "Steve performed the chemistry experiment in which divided 5/8 of a box of baking soda evenly among the five bottles...", So we only have to make a simple division, therefore \frac{5}{8}Box \div 5 Bottles=\frac{5}{8 \times 5}Box/Bottle=\frac{1}{8} Box/Bottle, so Steve put 1/8 of the box of baking soda in each one of the five bottles.
