Unless you just want to give money to the ice cream truck, for 0 items, you will pay 0.
Since the price of each item is $0.77, for one item you will pay $0.77. (Is that a surprise?)
Then for two items, you will pay $0.77 for each one, or $0.77 + 0.77 = $1.54. You can also compute this by making use of the fact that multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition. The price can be found by $0.77×2 = $1.54 = f(2).
Similarly, for 3 items, you can add $0.77 three times: $0.77 + 0.77 + 0.77 = f(3), or you can use multiplication: $0.77×3 = $2.31 = f(3).
a) Our table looks like
(x, f(x))
(0, 0)
(1, 0.77)
(2, 1.54)
(3, 2.31)
b) By now, I'm sure you have realized that to find the price of x items, you multiply 0.77 by x.
f(x) = 0.77x
Answer:
10x^(2)-4x
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's multiply the first equation by two on the both sides:
<span>8x + 7y = 39 /2
</span>⇒ 16x + 14y = 78
Now, the system is:
<span>16x + 14y = 78
</span><span>4x – 14y = –68
</span>
After adding this up in the column:
(16x + 4x) + (14y - 14y) = 78 - 68
20x = 10
⇒ x = 10/20 = 1/2
y can be calculated by replacin the x:
<span>8x + 7y = 39
</span>⇒ 8 · 1/2 + 7y = 39
4 + 7y = 39
7y = 39 - 4
7y = 35
⇒ y = 35 ÷ 7 = 5
Answer:
The general equation following the pattern becomes is 7 + (n - 1)×2
Where, n = The figure number - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The pattern in the question can be described as follows;
Figure 2 = (5 + 2) squares boxes = 7 squares boxes
Figure 3 = (5 + 2 + 2) squares boxes
Figure 4 = (5 + 2 + 2 + 2) squares boxes
Therefore, the number of squares boxes per figure, form an arithmetic progression (a + (n - 1)d) with the first term a = 7, the common difference d = 2, and the n = the nth term of the series, such that the general equation following the pattern becomes;
7 + (n - 1)×2.
Answer:
x > 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 3 to both sides.
