Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Uber</h3>
  • $5 pickup fee
  • $0.25 per mile

<u>Equation</u>

  • y = 0.25x + 5

<u>Cost of 5 miles:</u>

  • y = 0.25(5) + 5 = $6.25
<h3>KC yellow Cab Co.</h3>
  • $1.75 pickup fee
  • $0.75 per mile

<u>Equation</u>

  • y = 0.75x + 1.75

<u>Cost of 5 miles:</u>

  • y = 0.75(5) + 1.75 = $5.5

Comparing the cost we see KC yellow Cab Co. is better value for a 5 mile ride.

Evaluate 3/7r + 5/8s when r = 14 and s = 8
emmasim [6.3K]

\frac{3}{7}*r + \frac{5}{8} *s

let us first plug the values of r and s here

r=14 and s=8

\frac{3}{7}*14 + \frac{5}{8} *8

Now here we can cancel 14 and 7 as 7*2 =14 , also we can cancel 8 and 8 as 8*1 is 8, so our simplified new form is:

\frac{3}{1}*2 + \frac{5}{1} *1

Now we can multiply 3*2 and 5*1

3*2 =6

5*1=5

Next we add the two numbers

6+5 =11

So this is how we get the answer 11

The length of a rectangle is 2 feet less than twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 180 feet squared. Find the length an
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Width=10

Length=18

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 2 feet less then twice the width

Let the width be x.

Then the length is 2x -2 based on the given information. Use this to make an equation since it is known that the area is 180feet squared.

x(2x-2)=180

2x^2 - 2x - 180 = 0

2( x^2 - x - 90) = 0

We now have a factorable quadratic.

2(x+9)(x-10)=0

So by zero product property, x=-9, x=10 Since a measure cannot be negative, -9 is an extraneous solution.

So x=10

Then the width is 10 and the length is 18

Hope this helps! Let me know if it is correct!
