In Niagara-on-the-Lake, you can ride a horse-drawn carriage for a fixed price plus a variable amount that depends on the length

of the trip. The variable cost is $10/km and a 2.5-km trip costs $40. a) Determine the equation relating cost, C, in dollars, and distance, d, in kilometres. b) Use your equation to find the cost of a 6.5-km ride. c) Graph this relation. d) Use the graph to find the cost of a 6.5-km ride.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The cost of a product is given as:

Cost = a + bx

Where a is the fixed cost, b is the variable cost, x is the independent variable.

In this case, the independent variable is the distance(d), therefore:

Cost (C) = a + bd

C = a + bd

But the variable cost is $10/km, therefore:

C = a + 10d

A 2.5 km trip cost $40, therefore:

40 = a + 10(2.5)

40 = a + 25

a = 40 - 25 = 15

The fixed cost is $15. Therefore the equation for cost is:

C = 15 + 10d  

b) C = 15 + 10d  

For 6.5 km ride:

C = 15 + 10(6.5) = 15 + 65 = 80

It would cost $80 for a 6.5 km drive.

X = 0.19
Luda [366]

Step-by-step explanation:

.19 = 19/100

.864 = 86.4/100

.5348 = 53.48 /100

I multiplied the decimal by 100 to get what it was before which is the same as moving two decimal places to the right and divided by 100

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

In a box plot, the point farthest to the line is the greatest or maximum number of the problem(in this case E). You look for the greatest number out of them all and that would be your answer(90).

An arhitect wants to draw a rectangle with a diagonal of 20 inches. The length of the rectangle is to be 8 inches more than twic
kiruha [24]

The diagonal of a rectangle = sqrt(w^2 + l^2)

w = width

l = length

In this problem,

The diagonal = 20 in

w = x

l = 2x + 8

Let's plug our numbers into the formula above.

20in = sqrt((x)^2 + (2x + 8)^2)

Let's simplify the inside of the sqrt

20 in = sqrt(5x^2 + 32x + 64)

Now, let's square both sides.

400 = 5x^2 + 32x + 64

Subtract 400 from both sides.

0 = 5x^2 + 32x - 336

Factor

0 = (5x - 28)(x + 12)

Set both terms equal to zero and solve.

x + 12 = 0

Subtract 12 from both sides.

x = -12

5x - 28 = 0

Add 28 to both sides.

5x = 28

Divide both sides by 5

x = 28/5

The width cant be a negative number so now we know that the only real solution is 28/5

Let's plug 28/5 into our length equation.

Length = 2(28/5) + 8 = 56/5 + 8 = 96/5

In conclusion,

Length = 96/5 inches

Width = 28/5

An integer is chosen between 0 and 100. What is the probability that it is divisible by 7?
IgorC [24]
Assuming 0 and 100 are included in the possible choices:

There are \left\lfloor\dfrac{101}7\right\rfloor=14 multiples of 7 between 0 and 100, so there is a \dfrac{14}{101}\approx0.1386 probability of choosing a multiple of 7.
