Solution using an equation:

cost = fixed fee + fee per mile

cost = $24
fixed fee = $6
fee per mile = 3x for x miles

24 = 6 + 3x

6 + 3x = 24

3x = 18

x = 6

Answer: Mike traveled 6 miles.

Solution without equation:

He spent $24.

$6 is for the initial fee, so he spent $24 - $6 = $18 on the miles.

$18/($3/mile) = 6 miles

Answer: Mike traveled 6 miles.

Hello! To solve this problem, we can write and solve an equation. Set it up like this:

6 + 3m = 24

This is because 6 is the one-time fixed price and you pay $3 per mile. Subtract 6 from both sides in order to get 3m = 18. Now, divide each side by 3 to isolate the “m”. 18/3 is 6. There. m = 6. Mike traveled 6 miles by taxi.

Answer:

His goal wasn't mean't because percentage of grams from whole grains is 25% which is less than 30%

A seagull flying in the air over water drops a crab from a height of 45 feet.The distance the crab is from the water as it falls
jonny [76]
For the seagull to catch the crab, h(t)=g(t) so:

-16t^2+45=-13t+23  add 16t^2 to both sides

45=16t^2-13t+23  subtract 45 from both sides

16t^2-13t-22=0  using the quadratic equation:

t=(13±√1577)/32, since t>0

t=(13+√1577)/32 seconds

t≈1.65 seconds (to nearest hundredth of a second)

And the height that this occurs using either original equation is:

h((13+√1577)/32)≈1.59 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)
