<h2><u>Part A</u>: He started with
4 miles. </h2>
<u>Explanation Part A</u>: 51.664 = (x((1.2⁷)-1)) / 0.2
<h2>
<u>Part B</u>: The equation is
51.664 = (x(1.2⁷)-1)/0.2</h2>
<u>Explanation</u>: n = 7 and on day 7 he traveled 51.664 so Sn = 51.664.
We get the second part of the equation because each day is increased by 20% so we have r = (1.2x) / x = 1.2
So our top half will be x multiplied by ((1.2)⁷-1) because it's the 7th day and we are increasing by 1.2x - 1.
Our bottom half is 1.2 - 1 which equals 0.2
<h2><u>Part C</u> :
103.83 miles</h2>
<u>Explanation: </u> We now have x which is 4 so we plug x into the equation above and remove the 51.664. We also change the 1.2⁷ to 1.2¹⁰ because it's the 10th day not the 7th.
Our equation now looks like (4(1.2¹⁰)-1) / 0.2 which is equal to 103.83 miles.
Answer:
Option B - graphing is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a system of inequalities we need graphing. Inequality tells us about the relative size of two values. When we graph the x and y co-ordinates, the solution is not the drawn line, but the area of the coordinate plane that satisfies the inequality. In inequalities, multiple solutions can be possible.
Plug and chug method does not a complete solution, it only tells where a point belongs. Guess and check does not apply here.
The slope of a line is always zero because the line does not move up or down on the y-axis.
Answer:
B and E
Step-by-step explanation:
B = - 6, D = - 2, E = 2
d(B, D) = - 2-(-6)= - 2 + 6 = 4 units
d(D, E) 2 - (-2) = 2 + 2 = 4
Since, d( B, D) = d( D, E)
Therefore, Point D is 1/2 of the distance between B and E.
