Answer:
total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Aaron participates in a walkathon for charity. He has a sponsor who has pledged a base donation of $2 for the first mile he walks and then a certain dollar amount for each additional mile he walks. Based on this pledge, if Aaron walks 8 miles, the sponsor will donate a total of $23 to the charity.
Write a formula that can be used to determine the amount of money this sponsor donates when Aaron walks n miles.
total amount sponsor pays = base donations + (additional miles walked after first mile x amount paid)
when Aaron walks 8 miles
additional miles = 8 - 1 = 7
23 = 2 + 7x
23 - 2 = 7x
x = 3
additional amount paid is $3
total amount donated when aaron walks n miles = $2 + $3(n-1)
Well obviously quarters equal 25 cents. So you have to divide the 8.85 by 25 first. That means he could have 35 quarters. That least the rest as being dimes. So find the remaining amount of the 8.85. If you have 35 quarters that's $8.75. And 8.85 minus 8.75 is 10 cents. which would be 2 nickels. That only adds up 37 coins. So you break down one of the 25. That would mean 5 more coins could be nickels. Add 37 and 5 to get 42. Do it again. 25 cents in nickels would be 5 more coins. would be 46. that would be missing 2 coins. But don't forget you're also subtracting from the 35 quarters. Now you would technically have 12 nickels and 33 quarters. So you can do it one more time. 32 quarters means there is $8 in quarters at this point.
Now add you have 12 nickels, and you made 5 more. That's 17 nickels. That equals 85 cents. So add 17 and 32 to be sure you have 49 coins, which you do.
So 17 nickels, 32 quarters to equal 49 coins and $8.85
(sorry some of it got mixed up above because I was forgetting to subtract the quarters from the total as I changed them to nickels, so pay attention to the end)
Answer:
66
Step-by-step explanation:
180 - 105 = 75

180 - 114 = 66
Answer:
In summation form
Step-by-step explanation:
Within one hour, the first person gives a stack of flyers to six people and within the next hour, those six people give a stack of flyers to six new people.
So, in the first 5 hours, the summation of people that receive a stack of flyers not including the initial person will be given by
6 + (6 × 6) + (6 × 6 × 6) + (6 × 6 × 6 × 6) + (6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6).
So, in summation form
Therefore, Sigma-Summation Underscript n = 1 Overscript 5 EndScripts 6 (6) Superscript n minus 1, gives the correct solution. (Answer)
