Answer:
1.92 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
she had walked 10 miles so that is where you start
Monday she had walked 2.38 so you subtract that from her total
Tuesday she had walked 2.4 so you subtract that from your new total
Wednesday she had walked 3.3 and you subtract that from the new total also
Thursday she had not walked anything so your remaining total is the amount she had walked on Friday
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 is the complete oposite of -1/3 in terms of slopes, therefore they are perpendicular to each other.
Let us formulate the independent equation that represents the problem. We let x be the cost for adult tickets and y be the cost for children tickets. All of the sales should equal to $20. Since each adult costs $4 and each child costs $2, the equation should be
4x + 2y = 20
There are two unknown but only one independent equation. We cannot solve an exact solution for this. One way to solve this is to state all the possibilities. Let's start by assigning values of x. The least value of x possible is 0. This is when no adults but only children bought the tickets.
When x=0,
4(0) + 2y = 20
y = 10
When x=1,
4(1) + 2y = 20
y = 8
When x=2,
4(2) + 2y = 20
y = 6
When x=3,
4(3) + 2y= 20
y = 4
When x = 4,
4(4) + 2y = 20
y = 2
When x = 5,
4(5) + 2y = 20
y = 0
When x = 6,
4(6) + 2y = 20
y = -2
A negative value for y is impossible. Therefore, the list of possible combination ends at x =5. To summarize, the combinations of adults and children tickets sold is tabulated below:
Number of adult tickets Number of children tickets
0 10
1 8
2 6
3 4
4 2
5 0
-3/8x - 11 = 4
-3/8x = 15 Add 11 to both sides
x = -40 Divide both sides by -3/8
