<em><u>Question:</u></em>
<em>Mrs. Magdalino kept records on how much she spent on gasoline and the maintenance of her car.  She found that it cost $485 to drive 500 mi in a month.</em>
<em>a)  Find the cost per mile.  Write an equation that relates the cost c for gasoline and maintenance of a car to the number of miles m the car is driven.</em>
<em>b)  Use the equation to find the cost for driving 1200 miles.</em>
<em>c)  About how many miles are driven for a cost of $820?</em>

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
a)
$485/500mi = <u><em>$0.97/mi</em></u>

c = cost
m = miles driven

cost per miles driven = cost / mile driven = <u><em>c/m</em></u>

b)
(1200 mi)*($0.97/mi) = <u><em>$1164</em></u>

c)
(x miles)*($0.97/mi) = $820

*divide both sides by $0.97/mi

x miles = $820/($0.97/mi)

<u><em>x = 845.36 miles</em></u>

marysya [2.9K]
'Pi' ( π ) is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.

The exact value of 'pi' can't be completely written with numbers, so whenever
we use 'pi', we always use an approximation.

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-1,4) and having slope m=-3
timurjin [86]

Answer:

y = -3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with the point (-1, 4) and the slope m = -3, write out the point-slope equation of a straight line:  y - k = m(x - h) becomes y - 4 = -3(x + 1), or:

y = -3x - 3 + 4

y = -3x + 1    This is the same as answer choice (b).

Write an equation that is parallel to the line x + 3y = 2 and passes through the point (1, 0).
Nady [450]

Answer:

y = -1/3x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

x+3y=2

3y = 2 - x

y = 2/3 - 1/3x

y = -1/3x +2/3

the slope is -1/3 and the equation that is parallel will have the same slope also

y = mx + b

y = -1/3x + b

0 = -1/3(1) + b

0 = -1/3 + b

1/3 = b

y = -1/3x + 1/3

X = (y + 3) / 12 solve for y
slega [8]

Answer:

y = 12x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

X = (y + 3) / 12

Multiply each side by 12 to clear the fraction

12 x = (y+3)/12 *12

12x = y+3

Subtract 3 from each side

12x -3 = y+3-3

12x-3 =y
