Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the Uber ride be represented by y in dollars.

Let the number of miles that the Uber rides be represented by x.

The equation relating x and y is expressed as

y = 2/3x + 4.

This is a slope intercept form equation. The slope is 2/3 and it represents the cost per mile.

The cost of a 21 mile ride will be

Substituting x = 21 into the given equation, it becomes

y = 2/3 × 21 + 4 = 14 + 4 = 18

The 21 mile ride costs $18

Part B) The $46 ride will cost

Substituting y = 46 into the given equation, it becomes

46 = 2x/3 + 4 =

46 - 4 = 2x/3

42 = 2x/3

2x = 42 × 3 = 126

x = 126/2 = 63

The $46 ride will be 63 miles

At the gym, Jasper was able to bench press 224 pounds, which was 7/8 of the weight that Balin was able to bench press. Which sho
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The answer SHOULD be 7/8=224/x;256 pounds.

You may have made a mistake in inputting it here on Brainly. So look for the one that matches that.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what we know:

Jasper = 224 pounds

Balin = x

Jasper = 7/8 of x

Now we make an equation for that:

(\dfrac{7}{8})(x) = 224pounds

To match the selections we will isolate 7/8 on one side of the equation:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

Using ratio and proportion we can solve for what x is. Multiply 224 by 8 and divide it by 7. Or you can do it this way too:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

(7)(x)=(224pounds)(8)

7x=1792pounds

x=\dfrac{1792pounds}{7}=256pounds

So x = 256 pounds

What is the rule when you multiply several factors together? an even number of negative signs will result in
IrinaVladis [17]
⓵
When multiplying several factors together, an even number of negative signs will result in a positive answer.

↠ Because when you multiply two negative signs together, the negative signs turn into a positive sign, giving you a positive answer.

↠ If you have an even number of negative signs to multiply, then all your negative signs will be turned into positive signs, giving you a positive answer!

⓶
When multiplying several factors together, an odd number of negative signs will result in a negative answer.

↠ Because when you multiply a negative sign by a positive sign, the negative sign always wins, giving you a negative answer.

↠ If you har an odd number of negative signs to multiply, this means that once you are done multiplying all of the negative signs together except for the last one, you will be multiplying a positive sign with a negative sign.

↠ Here’s another way to see it : if you have 5 negative signs to multiply together, you will start by multiplying the first 2, which will give you a positive result. Then you will multiply the third and the fourth negative signs together, which will also give you a positive result. By that time, you will have two positive signs and one negative sign left, which means you will have no choice but to multiply a positive sign by the last negative sign, resulting in a negative answer!

I hope this helps! If you need a visual example, just tell me, it will be my pleasure! ☻
