+0.15
then try to find what could equal the same amount with 0.52
Answer:
0.5, 1 1/3, 1.9, 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using BEDMAS, it would be brackets first, so anything Inside a set of brackets would be solved first, and would follow the same rule. Once the brackets have been solved, next would be the exponents. Since your brackets have been solved you can expand with the exponents. After exponents, would be anything that has to be divided or multiplied. These two operations are interchangeable based on what is more convenient or beneficial to do first. And lastly, addition and subtraction, which once again are interchangeable operations
<em><u>Question:</u></em>
<em>Mrs. Magdalino kept records on how much she spent on gasoline and the maintenance of her car. She found that it cost $485 to drive 500 mi in a month.</em>
<em>a) Find the cost per mile. Write an equation that relates the cost c for gasoline and maintenance of a car to the number of miles m the car is driven.</em>
<em>b) Use the equation to find the cost for driving 1200 miles.</em>
<em>c) About how many miles are driven for a cost of $820?</em>
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
a)
$485/500mi = <u><em>$0.97/mi</em></u>
c = cost
m = miles driven
cost per miles driven = cost / mile driven = <u><em>c/m</em></u>
b)
(1200 mi)*($0.97/mi) = <u><em>$1164</em></u>
c)
(x miles)*($0.97/mi) = $820
*divide both sides by $0.97/mi
x miles = $820/($0.97/mi)
<u><em>x = 845.36 miles</em></u>
The answer is all real numbers because -2x-6=-2x-6
