Using a linear function, it is found that the algebraic expression that shows the amount Ms. Jackson will pay for the small truck for the week is:
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
- A linear function is modeled by:

In which:
- a is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.
In this problem:
- He pays an amount per mile, plus a flat weekly fee.
- Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that the weekly fee for the small truck is of $340, hence
.
- For each mile, he pays $0.6, hence the slope is of
.
Then, the expression is:

Step-by-step explanation:
in a geometric sequence there is a constant factor x that is multiplied with every previous term to create the next one.
a2 = 20
a5 = 1280 = a2×x×x×x = a2×x³ = 20x³
64 = x³
x = 4
=> a1 = 5
therefore
an = an-1×4 =

n > 1
These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher. They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b. Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method. As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important. Some of this may sound completely alien to you. Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n') become larger than 2.
Answer:
7512 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 8760 hours in a year.
There are 52 hours on Thursdays and Saturdays in a year.
The number of hours for Thurdays and Saturdays in a year is 1248.
8760-1248= 7512
