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.

A rectangle with an area of 5/8 ft² is dilated by a factor of 8. What is the area of the dilated rectangle?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

40 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the original rectangle be L and original Breadth be B

it is given that the original area  is 5/8 ft²

i.e.

Original Length x Original Breadth = Original Area, or,

LB = 5/8 ft² ------------------(1)

Given that the dilation factor is 8,

Hence,

New Length = 8L and New Breadth = 8B

THerefore,

New Area = 8L x 8B

= 64 LB  (from (1) above , we know that LB = 5/8 ft², substitute into expression)

= 64 (5/8)

= 40 ft²
