say, you have half a pie, and 2 sisters, if you divide the half-pie in 3 equal pieces, how much is everyone getting of the whole pie?  well, is the quotient of 1/2 and 3.


\bf \stackrel{pie}{\cfrac{1}{2}}\div \stackrel{siblings}{3}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\div\cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \stackrel{\textit{each one gets}}{\cfrac{1}{6}}

A state park charges an entrance fee based on the number of people in a vehicle. A car containing 2 people is charged $14, a car
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Therefore $98 is be charged a bus containing 30 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A state park charges an entrance fee based on the number of people in vehicle.

Let the entry fee for the vehicle be E and entry fee for each person be x.

Then

C= E+(P×x)

C= Total charge in $

E= entry fee for a vehicle

P=No. of person

x= Entry charge per person.

Given A car containing 2 people charged $14

C=$14, P=2

∴14= E+(2× x)

⇒E+2x=14.....(1)

Again A car containing 4 people charged $20

C=$20, P=4

∴20= E+(4× x)

⇒E+4x=20.....(2)

Subtract (1) from (2), we get

E+4x-(E+2x)= 20-14

⇒E+4x-E-2x=6

⇒2x=6

⇒x=3

Putting the value of x in equation (1)

E+(2×3)=14

⇒E=14-6

⇒E=8

Therefore E=$8 and x=$3

Next we check whether our assumption is correct or wrong. Putting the value of E and x for third case

Here P= 8

Therefore C= E+(P×x)

                    = 8+(8× 3)

                    =8+24

                   =$32

Therefore our assumption is correct.

Now C=? , P= 30

The charged for the 30 people is

C= $[8+(30×3)]

  =$[8+90]

 =$98

Therefore $98 is be charged a bus containing 30 people.

For the first question asking about the slope 3/4 and y intercept -2 would be (y=0.75x-2) because 3/4=0.75 and the y intercept -2 is b and you’re just placing it into the formula y=Mx+b m=slope b=y intercept.
