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)
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8=x/24 (cross multiplication)
3*24=8x (we don't need to multiply 3 with 24 bc we will divide both sides by 8 so it will be easier to find the final value)
x=9
