Answer:

P=\frac{C}{4} -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

cost  per drive= $20

additional fee per person= $4

let the number of persons be p

and the total cost be C

The total cost function is expressed as

C=20+4p

Step two:

Required:

<u><em>We want to make P subject of the cost function </em></u>

Take 20 to the other side we have

C-20=4p

divide through by 4

P=C-20/4

simplify

P=C/4-5

P=\frac{C}{4} -5

Please do 3 &amp; 4 and show work
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

3. A=B=70°; C=D=110°

4. A=90°; C=48°

Step-by-step explanation:

Same-side angles of a trapezoid add to 180°.

___

3. (2x) +(x+15) = 180

3x + 15 = 180 . . . . simplify

x +5 = 60 . . . . . . . divide by 3

x = 55

A=B=(x+15)° = (55+15)° = 70°

C=D=2x° = 2·55° = 110°

__

4. You are given the values of one of the angles on each side, so the other can be found by subtraction:

A=180°-D = 90°

C = 180° -132° = 48°

Josephine has a rectangular garden with an area of 2x2 + x – 6 square feet. A rectangle labeled 2 x squared + x minus 6 Which ex
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

2x^2 + x - 6 = rectangular garden: <u><em>length = 2x – 3 feet; width = x + 2 feet</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x - 3)(x + 2) = 2x^2 + x - 6 =

2x^2 + 4x - 3x - 6 = 2x^2 + x - 6 =

2x^2 + x - 6

You get the original equation from the two sides multiplied. :)

Hope this helps, have a good day.
