Answer:

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve this by backtracking. 13.00=0.3m+1 when you subtract 13 and 1 you will get 12. With 12 you will now divde by 0.3, then you will get the answer which is 40. So m=40. Backtracking is like reverse PEMDAS.

Answer:

m = 40 miles

He traveled 40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is C(m) = 0.3m + 1 . According to the question the function describes the relationship between the number miles traveled(m) and the total cost of the ride(C) which is the sum of the charges of the passengers ride($1) and an additional cost of $0.30 for each mile traveled. m represent number of miles traveled in the function.

If the taxi company charges you $ 13.00(total cost), the distance one travels in miles can be computed as follows:

C = $13

m = ?

C(m) = 0.3(m) + 1

13 = 0.3m + 1

13 - 1 = 0.3m

0.3m = 12

divide both sides by 0.3

m = 12/0.3

m = 40 miles

The perimeter of a square is proportional to the length of its sides. This relationship can be expressed by the equation p=4s. W
stealth61 [152]
Constant of proportionality is the constant value of the two proportional quantities, in this problem p and s, where 4 is the factor of proportionality because it is constant or k.

In simple terms, p is in direct proportion to s wherein the increase or decrease in value of s results to the increase or decrease in value of p with 4 the only factor remaining unchanged.

In the above problem, the number 4 is derived from the word square. We all know that a square has 4 sides of equal lengths, therefore, the perimeter is equivalent to the product of 4 and its lenght.

How do i solve this inequality? Number 46
myrzilka [38]
6(x-2.5) ≥ 8-6(3.5+x)

A number is before a parenthesis. The first step is to multiply.

6(x-2.5) = 6x -15

8-6(3.5+x)
2(3.5+x)= 7+2x

6x-15≥7+2x

Now solve

6x-15≥7+2x
-2x -2x

(-2x+2x)= They cancel out

(6x-2x)= 4x

4x-15≥7
+15 +15

4x≥22
/4 /4

You get= x≥5.5

32/9 as mixed number
bezimeni [28]
9 can only go into 32, three times so you will have 5 leftover so that can be written as 3 5/9. You can also check this by taking the denominator of 9 and multiplying it by the whole number 3..this is 27 and then add the numerator  5 to it. 
So 9*3+5= 32  and then add a denominator.. 32/9.
