A ride-share company has a fee that includes a fixed cost and a cost that depends on both the time spent travelling, in minutes,

and the distance travelled, in kilometres. The fixed cost of a ride is $2.55 Judy's ride costs $16.75 and took eight minutes. The distance travelled was 10 km. Pat's ride cost $30.35 and took 20 minutes. The distance travelled was 18 km. Roy's ride took 10 minutes. The distance travelled was 15 km. Find the cost of Roy's ride.

Answer:

the cost of Roy's ride is $23.05

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Let, Cost of per minute charge is 'x' & Cost Of Per Kilometre charge is y .

  • Given, A ride-share company has a fee of the fixed cost of a ride is $2.55 .
  • And, The Total cost of the Ride depends on both the time spent on travelling(in minutes), and the distance travelled(in kilometres) .

⇒ Judy's ride costs $16.75 . but the actual cost after deducting the fixed charge is 16.75-2.55 = $14.20, took 8 minutes & The distance travelled was 10 km. Thus, the equation for the journey is 8x+10y=14.20 ⇒ Equ. 1

⇒ Pat's ride costs $30.35 . but the actual cost after deducting the fixed charge is 30.35-2.55 = $27.80, took 20 minutes & The distance travelled was 18 km. Thus, the equation for the journey is 20x+18y=27.80 ⇒ Equ. 2

Now, on Solving Equation 1 & 2, We get

x=0.4(Cost of per minute charge) & y=1.1(Cost Of Per Kilometre charge)

Now, Roy's ride took 10 minutes & The distance travelled was 15 km . Thus, the cost of Roy's Ride is 10x+15y ⇔ 10×0.4 + 15×1.1 ⇔ $20.5

Hence, the total cost of Roy's ride is 20.5 + 2.55(fixed cost) = $23.05

Provide an example of a function that does not have an inverse function. How do you prove that it is not a function?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

f(x) = x^2 is a classic example

f( 3 ) = 9 and

f( -3 ) = 9, but

f^(-1)[9] is undefined because the result can be 3 and -3

Angle ABC is taken by a dilation with the center P and scale factor 3 to angle A'B'C'
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation: We are given that angle ABC is dilated with center P.

Scale factor=3

Angle A'B'C' is formed after dilation of angle ABC.

Dilation: when a figure is dilated by scale factor a then, the figure shape does not change.

After dilation, the size of figure changes.

The initial figure and the figure obtained after dilation are similar in shape.

When two figures are similar then , the angles of one figure are  congruent to its corresponding angles in other figure and ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

The measure of angle ABC=21'

After dilation by scale factor 3 then, the measure of angle A'B'C' remains=21'

Because the shape does not change in dilation transformation.
