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

A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 20% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for
Travka [436]

Answer:

0.512a³ cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cube of length, a, then when decreased by 20%, what's left is actually 80% of the original. So, for this case, we have a cube with a length of 80%(a) = 0.80a.

Now, to compute for the volume of a cube, we multiply the length three times to itself. Or, in other words, raise the length to the third power. That means the volume of the new cube is (0.8a)³ = 0.512a³ cubic units.
