Answer: C = 2 + 0.25 D

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation:

The cost of the cab ride (C), must be equal to the fixed fee (2) plus the product of the charge per mile (x) and the number of miles traveled (D)

C= 2 + Dx

Since the cost for a 50 mile ride is $14.50:

14.50 =2 + 50x

Solving for x:

14.50-2 = 50x

12.50 =50x

12.50/50 = x

0.25 = x

The cab company charges $0.25 per mile.

Back with the original equation:

C = 2 + 0.25 D

2ft and 3 in how much inches
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

2ft and 3 in how much inches

There are 12 inches in a foot

Since we have 2 feet we multiple 12 x 2

This gives us 24 inches

But we also have 3 extra inches

24 + 3 = 27 inches

How many sides does a regular (equal sides and equal angles) polygon have if each exterior angle measures 24°? # of sides =?
lubasha [3.4K]
If the measure of each exterior angle is 24, the measure of each interior angle is then 180-24=156
the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)*180, n is the number of sides
(n-2)*180=156*n
180n-360=156n
24n=360
n=15
the polygon has 15 sides

12. Use the diagram to determine the value of x
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

127 degrees = x

Step-by-step explanation:

A six sided polygon has interior angles that sum to

(n-2)(180) =  (6-2)(180 = 720

so all of the angles in the question add to 720

 98 + 133 + x + x + 155 + 80 = 720

  solve for x = 127 degrees

1. Christopher wants to invest $6200 in a retirement fund that guarantees a return of 9% annually using continously compounded i
frosja888 [35]
1. Continuously compounded formula is given by:
A=Pe^rt
Thus given:
P=$6200, r=0.09, t=20 years:
A=6200e^(0.09*20)
A=37,507.81

Answer: c] $37507.81

2. Compound interest formula is given by:
A=p(1+r/100n)^(nt)
where: n=number of terms, p=principle, t=time, r=rate 
Plugging the values in the formula we get:
A=2600(1+4.25/4*100)^(4*5)
simplifying this we get:
A=$3211.99

Answer: b)$3211.99

3. Using the formula from (2) we have:
A=P(1+r/100n)^nt
plugging in the values we get:
A=2600(1+4.25/400)^(50*4)
Simplifying the above we get:
A=$21526.87

Answer:
A] $21,526.87

4. The price of stock when the bond is worth $68.74 will be:
let the bond price be B and Stock price be S
thus
S=k/B
where
k is the constant of proportionality
thus
k=SB
hence
when S=$156 and B=$23
then
K=156*23
K=3588
thus
S=3588/B
hence
the value of S when B=$68.74
thus
S=3588/68.74
B=52.19668~52.20

Answer: d] $52.20

5. Continuously compounded annuity is given by:

FV =CF×[(e^rt-1)/(e^r-1)]
plugging in the values we get:
FV=500×[(e^(6*0.08)-1)/(e^0.06-1)]
simplifying this we get:
FV=$3698.50
