Answer: 2.5 hours or 2 hr and 30 min

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation to find how many hours you can park.

2.5+4x=12.5

The 2.5 comes from the base fee. The 4x is the hourly rate, where x is hours. The 12.5 is the total amount of money you have.

Since we have our equation, we can solve for x.

4x=10

x=2.5

You can park for 2.5 hours, or 2 hours and 30 min.

Amanda plans on going to the amusement park this Friday. It costs $25.00 to

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

$36.25

Step-by-step explanation:

To enter the park, Amanda pays 25 dollars.

+$25

It costs 1.25 for every ride that Amanda goes on.

Since we don't know the number of rides Amanda goes on, we will add a variable to represent the number of rides.

1.25x

Then, the passage says that Amanda goes on 9 rides. So, substitute 9 for x.

Equation: 25+1.25(9)

Then solve:

$36.25

The Answer is that the present value of $100 is $100. Because this $100 dollar is deposited today so the time is equal to zero and when time is zero the value of amount is the value of amount itself.

Jonah runs 3/5 miles on Sunday and 7/10 miles on Monday.He uses the model to find that he ran a total of 1 mile. What mistake do

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: He did not convert the fractions into the like fraction to add.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The distance Jonah runs on Sunday= $\frac{3}{5}$ miles

The distance Jonah runs on Monday= $\frac{7}{10}$ miles

The total distance he ran = $\frac{3}{5}+\frac{7}{10}\ miles$

Since both the fractions are not like , thus multiply 2 to the numerator and the denominator of the first fraction [to add fractions first convert them into like fractions], we get

The total distance he ran = $\frac{3\times2}{5\times2}+\frac{7}{10}\ miles$
