50-26 = 24

24 / 12 rides = 2 for each ride .

Answer: The price of each ride is $2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total amount of money Luna had = $50

Number of rides she had done = 12

Amount of money left to her = $26

Let the price of each ride be 'x'.

According to question, it becomes,

$26+12x=50\\\\12x=50-26\\\\12x=24\\\\x=\dfrac{24}{12}\\\\x=2$

Hence, the price of each ride is $2.

A relation is plotted as a linear function on the coordinate plane starting at point C (0,−1)(0,−1) and ending at point D (2,−11

Alika [10]

To find the rate of change, or slope, pick two points. The slope, is change in y coordinates over change in x coordinates.
$slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ .

In this case, the slope is
$\frac{-11+1}{2-0} = \frac{-10}{2} = -5$ .
Remember that subtracting a negative number equals adding the number without the negative sign.
a-(-b) = a+b

Now for the y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the graph intersects the y-axis, where x = 0.
You have the coordinate (0, -1), where x = 0. So the y-intercept is -1.

Putting these values into the slope-intercept form y = mx+b, the equation is
y = -5x - 1

To answer this question, you should set up and equation before doing anything else. So for this question you 're going to set up two equations.

The first equation is 2x+5y=33

The second equation is 8x+3y=30

Once you do that you have to solve for either X or Y by canceling out the other one. In this problem figuring out the Y is easier because you can cancel the X's more easily than the Y. To cancel a variable, they have to add up to 0.

So to cancel the X you multiply the equation 2x+5y=33 by -4.

That gives you -8x-20y= -132

Then you set up the two equations and add them together.

(-8x-20y= -132) + (8x+3y=30)

That gives you -17y = -102

So then you solve for Y by dividing by -17. You find out that Y is equal to 6. Then you plug the 6 back into the ORIGINAL equations and solve for X, which turns out to be 1.5

Hope this helped and if you get confused or have questions please ask :)

Macy's buys a coat from the manufacturer for $22.00. They markup the coat by 75%. Ms. Tonyes buys the coat and uses a 15% off co

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Toney buys the coat for $ 14.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of coat =$ 22

Mark up by 75 %

discount = 10 %

Let toney pay $ R for the coat.

So, according to the question

R + 75 % R = 1.75 R

Now the cost is

1.75 R - 15 % of 1.75 R = 22

1.75 R - 0.2625 R = 22

R = 14.8

So, he buy the coat for $ 14.8.
