Please see below solution:
Let x = number of books that Bryan reads2x  for amanda = Amanda 3x - 4 for Colin  Amanda = 5/8(Bryan + Colin)2x = 5/8(x+3x-4)2x = 5/8(4x-4)

[16x = 5(4x-4)]816x = 20x - 20Subtract 20x from each side-4x =-20-4x/-4= -20/-4 divide -4 to eliminate the -4 in -4xx = 5
Therefore:
Bryan reads 5 books a month.
Since Amanda reads twice as many books a Bryan read so Amanda 10 books a month. 
And Colin 11 books a month. 3(5) - 4 = 11

A T-shirt department store cost 7.50.the total cost in dollar of a T-shirt is givien by the function C(a)=7.5a
tigry1 [53]

Given cost function C(a) = 7.5a, where a is the number of T-shirts.

Let us complete table.

We need to plug a=1,2,3,4 in above function to get the costs to complete the table.

For a =1

C(1)= 7.5(1) = 7.50

For a =2

C(2)= 7.5(2) = 15.00

For a =3

C(3)= 7.5(3) = 22.50

For a = 4

C(4)= 7.5(1) = 30.00

In order to find the common difference we need to find the diffrences of costs 15-7.50 = 7.50

22.50-15.00=7.50.

<h3>Therefore, common difference is 7.5.</h3>

a represents the number of T-shirts.

Domain of a is the numbers we can take for a.

So, we can take value for a as 0 or greater value.

Therefore, domain for a would be a is gerater than or equal to 0.

<h3>Domain : a≥0</h3>

A rectangular city is 3 miles long and 10 miles wide. What is the distance between opposite corners of the city? The exact dista
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The exact distance is \sqrt{109} miles.

The distance is approximately 10.4 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a rectangular city is 3 miles long and 10 miles wide. So,

Length = 3 miles

Width = 10 miles

We need to find the distance between opposite corners of the city. It means, we need to find the length of the diagonal of the rectangle.

Using Pythagoras theorem, the length of diagonal is

d=\sqrt{l^2+w^2}

where, l is length and w is width.

Substitute l=3 and w=10.

d=\sqrt{(3)^2+(10)^2}

d=\sqrt{9+100}

d=\sqrt{109}

The exact distance is \sqrt{109} miles.

Now,

d=\sqrt{109}

d=10.4403065

d\approx 10.4

The distance is approximately 10.4 miles.
