Answer:
x = -8/3
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding the equation of the line:
y = 3x +c
Substituting (-2,5) into 'y=3x+c':
5 = -6 + c
c = 11
Hence,
y = 3x + 11
For finding x:
Substituting (x, 3) into 'y = 3x +11':
3 = 3x + 11
3x = -8
x = -8/3
For finding y:
Substituting (-2, y) into 'y = 3x + 11':
y = -6 + 11
y = 5

First, find the percentage of the price after the sale occures
percent = 100% - 20%
percent = 80%
We need to find the price for the pairs with the percentage above
new price = percentage of new price/percentage of old price × old price
new price = 80%/100% × 55
new price = 4/5 × 55
new price = 44
The new price is $44
Now we estimate how much the tax
tax = 6% × 44
tax = 6/100 × 44
tax = 2.64
Calculate how much Josie will pay
pay = new price + tax
pay = 44 + 2.64
pay = 46.64
Josie will pay $46.64
Each friend would have taken a total of 35 rides each.
This can be verified by multiplying 35 by 35 to get 1225.
