</span>5. <span>The quotient of four times some number and six
</span>6. <span>3x + 7
1. x and -4 are multiplied by 12
2 raided to this 5th power is an exponent
3 quotient means division
4 less than means subtraction
5 division means quotient, list numerator first then the denominator
6 product of is multiplication and more is an addition.</span>
Answer: Ali would need to drive 350 miles for the two plans to cost the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by creating two equations using the information supplied in the question and then solving these simultaneously.
Let the cost be C.
Let the number of miles be M.
Let the initial payment be i.
Let the rate per mile driven be R.
Plan 1:
C = i+R×M
C = 70+0.60M ... equation 1
Plan 2:
C = i+R×M
C = 0+0.80M
C = 0.80M ...equation 2
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1:
0.80M = 70+0.60M
0.80-0.60M = 70
0.20M = 70
M = 70/0.20
M = 350 miles
For example:
x+2y=7
6x+7y=2
__________
x=7-2y *
6*(7-2y)+7y=2 **
__________
x=7-2y
42-12y+7y=2
__________
x=7-2y
-5y=-40
__________
x=7-2y
y=8
x=-9
